In addition to buying games, starting next month, you can pay OnLive $9.99 a month for access to 40 games and counting. It won't be their latest releases, so you can't just plop down $10 and play Deus Ex: Human Revolution when that releases.

Would you be more eager to use the service if it had a monthly a la carte option like this? I've slowly been warming up to OnLive; every time I pop back into it and give it another go, the lag time decreases, the picture quality increases, etc. Also, they've been very friendly to customers, with special deals like giving away the OnLive console to people who bought two games in the past and so on. It seems that they are aware of their problems and work hard to fix whatever's not working. I had a problem with my account, so I called customer support, and it was fixed quickly.

Keep in mind that I'm also playing from a college dorm, so the internet isn't always the best, and the quality still continues to increase.

Whoops! My apologies.
