OnLive has begun rolling out support for Wi-Fi connections to its cloud gaming service. So sure is the company that it can offer lag free streaming of game content that it is <a href="http://blog.onlive.com/2010/09/15/onlive-wi-fi-hits-the-airwaves/">bringing Wi-Fi support to subscribers before it planned to</a>. Support is still in beta, but most OnLive members are supposed to see the fuctionality available sometime this month. OnLive users with questions can get <a href="http://www.onlive.com/support/wifi">answers from this FAQ</a>.<br />
<br />
Additionally, the company has announced <a href="http://blog.onlive.com/2010/09/15/celebrating-independent-game-developers/">an initiative to support indie games</a> on the service, offering its developer tools and SDK to independent game companies to sell their titles to subscribers. This coming weekend, OnLive is holding <a href="http://www.onlive.com/promo/indie">an "Indie Fest,"</a> offering discounts of up to 75% on great indie games like <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/world-of-goo"><em>World of Goo</em></a>, <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/trine"><em>Trine</em></a>, and <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-a-reckless-disregard-for-gravity/"><em>AaaaaAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!</em></a> We would like to know how offering indie games for cheap means you're supporting the developers, but it's cool -- we don't understand how the whole streaming things works so well either.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2010/09/15/onlive-now-working-over-wi-fi-announces-indie-fest/">OnLive now working over Wi-Fi, announces 'Indie Fest'</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 15 Sep 2010 18:30:00 EST.
