Lies.
Anyways, this is fairly old. I had a free subscription and tried a few demos. It's okay I suppose, but anybody with a bad connection is screwed. I couldn't really see this as my only means of playing games, I'd rather get a more powerful gaming laptop and just buy the games on steam or something.

So it can be used on/with a horribad computer?
Hey,
Can I put games I already have on it?
Sandvich:
I have awesome connection so yay
Chrono:
I would rather spend money on a better computer which means graphics run through:
My input [mouse, keyboard, controller] (0 MS)-> CPU (<1 MS)-> My output [monitor, speakers] (total of <1 MS)
Rather than pay a monthly (?) fee for some company to stream it through:
My input (0 MS)-> CPU (<1 MS)-> 4-8 routing servers along the way (50-200 MS)-> Their server, processed (<1MS)-> bunch of routing servers back to my ISP (50-200 MS)-> My output (Total of making action games [my favorite] unplayable)
This is why we play Blockland and not ROBLOX.
One time payment and better quality gaming.

monthly? I looked at it and it said full payment. You pay for like a 3 day trial of the full version so you know if you want to buy the whole game.
