Easy to set up, good build quality, makes OnLive games much better, works with Android tablets, can be set up to work with other games
£40 is quite a lot for a controller, but the functionality it adds is worth the money
If you've got OnLive on your system we think this is a no brainer. £40 for a Xbox-style controller that works with OnLive, and can be used with Steam and other Mac games. It's sturdy and well-built, with excellent control mechanism; easy to set up and gre...
Easy-to-use, attractive interface, Decent controller, Available across breadth of platforms, Good value Playback sub
No Wi-Fi on MicroConsole, MicroConsole controller doesn't work with tablets/PC, Reduced video quality, Not all games are transmitted with top settings
A proof of concept and a lot more besides, OnLive offers a workable and versatile remote gaming solution that lets you continue your at-home gaming adventures on-the-go, better than almost any other method. Video quality issues and a slightly limited rate...
Whether streaming from a PC or Mac, or using the MicroConsole, OnLive is easy to set up, with the MicroConsole package has everything you need straight out of the box: a console, one wireless controller, ethernet cable, HDMI cable and AV cable (you’ll need just one of these), a power adapter and a USB cable for charging the control pad. Plug those in and you’re ready to go. The hardware is of top

If using a Mac or PC, OnLive will work over Wi-Fi, but for the best performance users will still need to plug in an ethernet cable. The MicroConsole unit also does not support Wi-Fi - so again, an ethernet cable will be needed. The se
OnLive is a gaming revolution that is taking place right now. For those without a fast internet connection it can be slow at times, but it’s still early days. When it works, OnLive is an amazing service that is only going to get better. OnLive is tagg...
Testosterone-fuelled hardcore gamers will no doubt want to stick with their PCs or consoles, but I have to admit that the OnLive Game System worked better than I’d expected – even with my less-than-stellar broadband connection. The current selection o...
Ugly ear pads, Dubious wireless dongle design, A little chunky, Wireless LS30s retail for almost half the price
The LucidSound LS40s, in terms of sound quality, are absolutely top rate and match or exceed every other gaming headset on the market. The volumetric DTS Headphone:X sound space is fantastic and genuinely adds a level of immersion that you just don't get...
Ingenious use of technology; great way to play latest games; potentially good value,
Quality was inconsistent; overall experience dependent on broadband connection; game catalogue limited,
As a way of bypassing expensive hardware costs Onlive has enormous potential but it's flawed, especially because of the UK's lagging broadband infrastructure ...
Setting up the Microconsole is extremely easy as we are given a wallet size piece of card with a picture of the cable setup. After following the diagram and turning on the TV we follow some on screen instruction to sync the controller and we are done....
