Have you guys heard of liquidsky?

[Aryvandaar]

So I discovered this site when browsing randomly and it looks like a good idea. Could be a saviour for games that just won't run in Linux, through official port/native or in wine.

I'm waiting a bit to test it until they get servers closer to me.

I sighed up, looks to be a while 60 days and it seem to cost 40 to 50cents an hour... bit of added expense there so insure I'll ever use it. Thanks Aryandaar

 

[Aryvandaar]

Yeah the price is a bit off-putting.

 

[Daniel~]

Hey,it gotta be at lest worth looking at...if only or an hour or two...":O}

Seems this is everyone's answer to compatibility. Strikes me as just another way to extort extract sell us something.

How is running a game on someone else's Windows machine better than running it on your own?

 

[booman]

Yeah, why not just stream it from your Windows box using Steam?

I definitely don't have fast enough internet to stream high definition gaming and can't afford the service.

In many ways, Linux gaming has been the poor-man's attempt at high quality gaming for less.

Almost all of my guides are from games I've purchased during sales, already owned or free-to-play. I've spent a fraction of $$ that most gamers spend on their "just released" $60 games. An d I have used existing or old hardware to build gaming machines with my free Linux Mint installed on it.

As you can see, my focus is on poor-man's gaming which requires more time and frustration than money.

 

[Daniel~]

Shoot! I didn't realize that that's what they would be doing, was in a hurry...Scratch this for me...
I thought they were going for something like Steam Linux...sigh..

 

[Aryvandaar]

Yeah, and it's not exactly viable to pay 50 cents to 1 dollar for gaming for one hour when gamers tend to game quite a bit...

I realize that my excitement for this project was pre-mature.

 

[Daniel~]

Still...nice to know your looking out for us! ":O}

 

[Lorena]

Interesting but not for me..... With my internet connection its not going to work.

 

[Daniel~]

I'm kinda having a hard time trying to figure out how they expect to make this work out...at lest at the money they are talking about now!

 

[Gizmo]

Sony's making it work with PS3 games, and so is Microsoft with the X-Box. sigh

 

[booman]

They are both doing game streaming via internet?

 

[Daniel~]

Sony's making it work with PS3 games, and so is Microsoft with the X-Box. sigh

But they don't charge by the hour!...OH wait!
They have that "Playstation Plus", I have never tried it...again, the cost is more than I can bear! ":O}
