Soo, my net speed is a tiny bit faster than before.. fast enough to run OnLive "just about" lol.

But even with this shitty speed, I must say I am impressed! I may start buying games on there and stuff.

I got a few questions, how safe is it to use credit card on there? Paypal option isnt available :/
and explain to me some of the offers :D

here is a 854x480 video I recorded. Pretty shit quality.. but oh well.

Do you think OnLive would still be running if it wasn't safe to use credit cards on there?

I asked for a reason lol. Not gonna specifically mention it, but something dodgy happend right after I signed up.
What happened?

For me, I'm slowly starting to go to the direction of OnLive. I would say they're reliable and you can trust them with your card details. I've bought myself the Playpack bundle for £2 (which you might have unfortunately missed out on, since the offer ended on the 27 April), which means 200+ games for £2, and I've bought about 10 full games and those games perform and look better than the console counterparts, because you're practically playing the PC version mainly, and you can switch controls seamlessly.

Also, what's your speed? Mine's on 9Mbps down and the graphics are superb. I get the occasional lag sometimes, but only when someone in the house uses the Internet, so I get the best quality when I'm home alone.

Something regarding my password lol. Not gonna mention exactly.

If you had any "issues" with them, they're either you being paranoid or you screwin' up. OnLive is a pretty huge and reputable service. They make more money being legit than trying to screw a few people out of their CC info.

You can always talk to their superb Live Chat support. I'm sure your issues will be solved through that.

I guess the only time you can accuse OnLive of getting money from you is when you forget to cancel your auto monthly PlayPack subscription. But they remind you by e-mail anyway.

So what has your credit card got to do with something happening to your password? You're not making much sense.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
