New music, New flash and OnLive - The Future of Gaming?

Posted by Oggy-cheese - March 24th, 2009


Music
Ok, so first off, I've been working on a bucket-load, perhaps just a shovel-full of music and I've now got enough to release a CD, which I've gone and done. You can preview the album on youtube which I have posted below.

Flash
Well I'm kinda working on and off with flash, I really want to create another old school comedy flash now that I have improved my skills, I'm working on a little short flash for a comp which I should have done soon and I will probably post here if I'm allowed. I have also finished my part for the Pork and Beans collab and I'm looking forward to that finishing (parts still available).

OnLive!
This is the really exciting stuff (for gamers anyway).

Personally, I'm very excited about this. OnLive is essentially streaming games onto your PC / Mac / TV or whatever. Apparently Crysis runs on high, really smoothly on a Macbook air!

The website currently has a countdown on it that suggests something is happening in about 9 hours, not sure what that is, unless it's just the launch of the website.

www.onlive.com

I'm really excited, all you will need is a fair internet connection. 1.5Mb connection will get you standard quality (Wii) and a 5Mb will get you full HDTV support!

You can allow people to spectate you playing a game, or watch others, and the ability to record the last 15 seconds of your game if something awesome happened. It looks great.

Phantom 2.

Good song :) also a fighter plane.

lol, phantom was a console...and it fail just like this onlive gonna.

Stream HD games + best graphics on older pc just becouse of some modem....yeaa.

haha, perhaps. It beta tests this summer and releases this winter so I guess we'll find out if it's going to be a success or not. Personally I'm pretty hopeful and it looks promising. I hear the press at GDC were all shocked when they saw it :D

-fixed youtube links btw-

hey, long time since I've heard from you! and I didn't know you made music! awesome! i kinda like the style of your music, cool vibes and 8bit stuff :)

Hey! Yeah music is just a little side project, my main focus is still my film making and flash. Speaking of which, I saw your stopmotion runner thingy, that was awesome! :D Thanks!

So are you playing PC games on Xbox and PS3 or the opposite? I don't really understand.. :C

Also the game menu looks insane.

You can play PC games, PS3 games and xbox games on it, on any mac or pc using a browser plugin, or you can buy a little box to play on your TV (it is cheaper than a wii)

i love you oggy. and loving the songs!

thanks Bert :3
