Players can also subscribe to the OnLive PlayPack for unlimited access to more than 200 games, with more titles added monthly. The service also offers free access to social features such as game spectating in the OnLive Arena and sharing videos and Achievements with friends on OnLive and Facebook.
“Our partnership with LG has enabled us to take an important step forward in making high-end gaming accessible to everyone, across a variety of consumer electronic devices,” said OnLive Chairman Gary Lauder. “Gamers can now enjoy hundreds of amazing console-quality games with no new hardware necessary beyond an OnLive controller and LG’s fast and intuitive Google TV.”
Lauder recently bought OnLive’s assets for just $4.8 million after the company succumbed to mounting debt and laid off its workforce earlier this year.
