GunFlame Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I forgot all about this until recently, but I haven't had any luck getting anything to run yet. I'm not sure why, possibly a region thing. But anyway, it's interesting. It may even be a way that companies can combat piracy by offering free demos to all. Plus, it being Browser based makes it pretty much accessible to everyone...besides me right now... http://www.gaikai.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I had a quick go on ME2 demo. It worked fine for me, though I only played for about 5 minutes, it all ran smoothly and what not from my pretty average laptop, (2.4ghz dual core processor, 4gb ram but a pony NVS 135M graphics card).

deanb Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 http://pressxordie.com/2011/03/01/so-long-video-game-trailers/ I may have given it a spin.... They're expanding quite well but their library is starting to be a bit lacking at this point. They've only added like 3 extra games since launch and only one isn't an EA title. Also I think they've only got Escapist on board right now, or at least that's the only site they've trumpeted about. Going as an advertising scheme should certainly help them. It's probably a bit more costly to run than a trailer, but the conversion rate is probably higher. It won't completely stop piracy (unless there's native demos too, or a game clearly low-end e.g spore/Sims) but it could certainly help. Oh and at the bottom they have a map in case you're curious if you can get it: http://www.gaikai.com/services (Hmm, has Capcom n EG down as partners too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
