Sorry for being lazy i hadnt realised this hadnt been posted and mines just got here in the post so ive copied my reply from hotukdeals.
if you havent heard of Onlive basically if your computer can play youtube videos you can play the latest games people have been using netbooks etc to play dirt3 amongst others personally i think its great and for the cost of one console game its defiantly worth a look basically its steam with a console which looks great may i add and is just a bit bigger that a pack of cigs making it portable as long as you have a network connection (no wifi without a bridge, dongle etc). The graphics and gameplay are no different to xbox or ps3 in my opinion and defiantly worth a look especially if you buy games regular i can only see this getting bigger and i defiantly recommend it.

you dont need to order everything if you dont want but you can still sign up free and get the £1 game and you can trial most games for 30mins or even rent them for 3 or 5 days in most cases,
the top/new games are NOT included in the playpack thats why it would make no sense to pay full price 30-40 for a game when you could pay £6.99 simply because you cant lol the play pack basically contains classic games or old games and if you want the new/top games you pay 30-40 for them so for the first month at least you would be better doing as Megalofobia posted and paying for the £1 game and the 100+ others from the playpack then decide if it is worth it if not cancel the sub which means you loose the 100+ but still have the £1 game to play until Saints Row 3 is released YOU WILL NOT loose your £1 game or SR3 if you cancel the play pack sub and you will still have the console the only other thing i havent seen mentioned is :
you will have all games whilst they are supported which will be a minimum of 3 years and if people are still playing said game it will continue after the 3 years. so im not telling people what to do but unless you do as below not only are you limiting your choice of games for at least a month you will pay more if you are pre ordering saints row 3, 34.99 + 6 p+p for the console = £40.99. If you order the playpack you will get 30% off your next order (Saints Row 3)
Cheapest option
Monthly membership £6.99 (cancel anytime) - Free for BT Broadband users for 3 months
Discounted Saints Row: £24.49 (30% off £34.99 for members)
Postage: £6.00
Total: £37.48
Also get your £1 game before signing up for membership or you may not get it for a £1.
YOU NEED TO ORDER IN THIS WAY.
1 buy £1 game i choose the new warhammer
2 but the months sub for 100+ games
3 preorder saints row 3 which gives you your code for a free console
4 order console using voucher code
This ends on the 28th so be quick.
Another thing to add for as long as you pay the 6.99 a month sub you will get 30% of any game and as most of the games are priced between 30 -40 you would be daft not doing e.g £30 game - 30% = £21 plus 6.99 sub = £27.99 meaning you get the game you want plus 100+ more and save £2.01 sorry if this is patronizing but i couldnt help myself lol
