No way. I have the microconsole and it's surprisingly great. I have a modest 20mb/s internet connection and even the FPS games run great.

I'm honestly more impressed with OnLive than I ever thought I would be and I was one of the people who stepped into the Beta briefly and never looked back.

Planetside was epic. Too bad it never really caught on.

I'd say Planetside is the number 1 reason why I just don't give a crap about these 8 vs. 8 Halo and COD multiplayer games.

@Petebot330

No. Even the post states that Limbo, A Slow Year, and Faraway won awards of which Limbo is an Xbox 360 title, A Slow Year is an Atari 2600 title and Faraway is an iPad/iOS game.

Last night? The awards ceremony was on Friday and the winners were announced then. If you're gonna half ass indie game coverage at least get the dates right.

In a single comment you have thusly silenced a million...

"Uhhh Android?"

... comments. I thank you sir.

Also the Android app is pretty good. Nice find.

I'm calling BS on your "looks like a psp game" note. The game looks like rubbish, but I can tell you, without a doubt in my mind, the PSP as we know it today does not have graphics like that. It just doesn't have that kind of detail...

@Newwales

No I won't because I'm not stupid enough to attempt to go 200 miles on a 100 mile battery. Also, yes, today's batteries will have to be replaced about every six years... just like most gas-powered cars will need stuff replaced over the course of 6 years as well.

Let's see, one battery replaced once every six years...

-or-

24 oil changes, 12 premium tune ups, 6 belt changes, and possibly any other work that your car will need in that timespan. Gas powered vehicles are ticking time bombs.

And finally, please do some research on hyrdogen powered cars before you start talking about them. They are not a real viable solution and they never will be. They were a SHAM paraded out by oil and automotive companies in the early part of this decade as a way to get the government off their backs... they are not real. They will never happen.

That's a myth by the way. Most metropolitan areas get a signifcant source of power from non-dirty energy resources which makes this a non issue.

It WOULD be an issue were every home, business, car, etc powered by a coal or oil power plant.

But even at that argument it's better to change everybody's driving habits and method of transportation and then phase in a cleaner source of energy being generated to power those machines.

Hah! I was on my way home yesterday at about 4pm, driving through downtown Portland, and I actually saw this Leaf driving on the road. I thought Nissan had started selling them, but I guess it was just for this event.

@Newwales

Wow... you're dumb.

First, I had an electric car for a time, the Mini-E. I got consistently 80-100 miles per charge. So there's that...

Second, 2 years ago it took 8 hours to fully charge an electric vehicle. 1 year ago it took 4 hours (the Mini-E), today it takes 1 hour to go to 80%. I don't think I need to spell it out for you but, like with all new technology, IT IS GOING TO GET BETTER.

Hydrogen will never be a viable option. It's simply just the "wonder" solution that all oil and automobile companies trotted out in the early 2000s as their "solution" to the gas guzzling SUVs... it was a sham.
