Considering it's only a few months away, I never heard anything of this before.

I do not see it taking off personally. But beware, it could be a potential threat to our beloved Nintendo. Though I am more than confident Nintendo will kick arse in the next decade.
Let's here it for Nintendo!
QUOTE said:A gaming service that aims to kill off the traditional gaming console will begin streaming popular games over the internet in June this year.
OnLive, which launched to much fanfare in 2009, announced details of its service at the GamesBeat conference.
Instead of games taking hours to download or buying them off the shelf, OnLive promises games on-demand.
"OnLive breaks the console cycle. We don't need new hardware devices," said company founder Steve Perlman.
That sentiment was echoed by his chief operating officer Mike McGarvey.
"We want to take your dollars from hardware and let you spend it on software. We are a new platform and we're building a network and infrastructure to last for the next 30 years of gaming, not the next five years," Mr McGarvey told reporters.
