Hello.
I've came here to present to you, 'Cloud Gaming'. Was your PC just not made for games, such as Mafia II, DiRT 3, GTA IV or Assassin's Creed II? Well, you can play all of these games now, even with a very bad PC... Just download a software called "OnLive", register & login, and you're ready! Cloud gaming, also called gaming on demand, is a type of online gaming that allows direct and on-demand streaming of games onto a computer, similar to video on demand, through the use of a thin client, in which the actual game is stored on the operator's or game company's server and is streamed directly to computers accessing the server through the client. This allows access to games without the need of a console and largely makes the capability of the user's computer unimportant, as the server is the system that is running the processing needs. The controls and button presses from the user are transmitted directly to the server, where they are recorded, and the server then sends back the game's response to the input controls.
For example, yesterday I played Mafia II (free 30 minute trial) on OnLive...

Cable modem... 10mb/s download speed, I didn't have any lags and I wasn't stuck while playing. Its like real time playing, just like when the game is on your PC. Its amazing :)

the best part? OnLive is available on android.
So now you can play battlefield, assassins creed and all those games on your PHONE!!
Except that games like those require a controller with your phone. Supper games can be played on your phone..
You can spec players playing other games too! Cool isn't it? <3
Many people have recorded crazy bugs and glitches which are often a good laugh. :)

OnLive is awesome... To bad the game play time is limited to 30 minutes, but you can still play a desired game you never did before, so you can see how it is playing it, and without any LAGS! :)
They say Cloud Gaming is the future of gaming... You don't need a powerful console/PC to play a desired game.

Hello.
My answer is yes. You can use OnLive on a bad PC, you just need a bit good internet connection, but I'd recommend you trying it. Every game (mostly) has a 30 minute trial, when the session ends you can start the trial again anytime you want. :)

What about other questions... How do you buy games,tnx for answer but there are other questions left
-
Looks pretty good imo.

I'm not sure probably over a credit card and then you have unlimited access to that game (no time limit), you can buy by starting the software, selecting the game and "Get Game".
Looks pretty good imo.
Yeah I thought it would suck, like lag and just be shitty. Turns out its awesome.
Just finished playing Driver: San Francisco, Homefront and some Saints Row in co-op mode :)

I don't like depending on a company to be able to play my games
-
What about mp mods for games? And is it avalible all over the world?

Yeah most of the people don't but actually this needs more development, Sony said that this is the future of gaming consoles...

Its available on any PC, with an internet connection no matter where you are. And I'm afraid no mods, atleast not on this software.

Well my currently favorite one may be Saints Row The Third, its a very nice game, you can drive cars, reminds me of GTA IV when zooming in shooting, getting in cars and walking&running.

Ok,just asking

They would sure love that, but nothing beats having a game installed on your own computer, for both security and performance reasons. Still, I guess some people could like the service

I prefer having the game installed on my PC, you can mod it and stuff, but like this, its just 'click, click' and the game is ready, and your PC doesn't overheat, you don't need good graphics, etc... :)

I'm not sure, try googling it. Tried reinstalling the program, aswell as changing the resolution color to 32 bit's (Desktop - Right Click - Properties - Settings)?
