OnLive, a tech company that has been in self-described “stealth mode” development for seven years, has unveiled new technology that allows even the most complex PC games to be played on a television set or any PC. The ambitious venture, which hopes to revolutionize the gaming world by removing the need to continually upgrade PC hardware or buy new gaming consoles every generation, makes use of cloud computing — doing all of the game’s video and audio processing on remote servers, then streaming the resultant images and sound back to the user quickly enough to play games in real time.

What’s most important though, says OnLive founder and CEO Steve Perlman and COO Mike McGarvey, is that the system works with any standard PC game, and does not require developers to code for a proprietary system.Other attempts have fallen short in that area, Perlman told Gamasutra in a demonstration preceding the announcement.
