Popular cloud gaming service OnLive today launched its Android
offering for smartphones and tablets, bringing a free game along with it in the
form of Lego Batman. For anyone not familiar, this is no mobile offering -- the
cloud service offers up full console games to play in the cloud. Currently the
Android app is available in the UK and US.
There are around 25 games at present that can be played using a
touchscreen, with another 200 that can be played using the OnLive wireless
controller, which goes on sale Dec. 9 for around £40/$50. With a tablet and a
controller, you effectively get a mobile games console. The service offers cross
platform compatability, meaning your progress will be available on all your
devices, and it also gives you the chance to engage in multiplayer activity
against your iOS and desktop playing friends.
There is an official device compatibility list, but it's
important to note that it'll most likely work without a hitch on other devices.
For example, the Galaxy Nexus is absent, but it works just fine, as does the
Nexus S.
The OnLive app requires at least Android 2.3 Gingerbread and has been tested on the following devices:
Acer Iconia Tab A500, ASUS Eee Pad Transformer, HTC Evo View, HTC Flyer, HTC Jetstream, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Sony Ericsson Tablet S, Toshiba Thrive, HTC EVO, HTC Nexus One, HTC Rezound 4G, HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation XL, Motorola Droid 2, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola DROID BIONIC 4G, Motorola DROID RAZR 4G, Motorola Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy S II 4G.
The Universal OnLive Wireless Controller has been tested with the Acer Iconia Tab A500, ASUS Eee Pad Transformer, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Toshiba Thrive.
We'll have a full review coming up soon, but in the meantime
check out the video and a whole host of screenshots and download links after the
break.
