OnLive offers demos as part of its free basic service but noted with a certain languid indifference that gamers can ultimately purchase the full version of the game wherever they want.
It also offers the side bonus of instant playability the moment the game goes live at 9:01 pm PST on June 6, with no downloads or trips to the mall required.īut OnLive is also taking the opportunity to promote itself as the platform of choice for PC demos, regardless of where the full game will actually be purchased. The full version of the game will be available from OnLive for $49.95 and will come with a free copy of Red Faction Guerrilla as well as a free OnLive set-top box. “While OnLive has been releasing new major game titles on the same day and date as PCs and consoles, Red Faction Armageddon marks the beginning of a new era in videogame distribution, where OnLive’s ability to provide an instant, frictionless demo on almost any PC, Mac or HDTV (and soon mobile) makes OnLive the universal demo platform of choice,” the company said. It’s OnLive, the cloud gaming service that offers instant, high-end gaming on just about any broadband-equipped PC or Mac, laptops and netbooks included. It’s not Steam, it’s not Direct2Drive, it’s not even THQ.
If you want to lay eyeballs on the upcoming PC version of Red Faction Armageddon, you’ve only got one choice. The Red Faction Armageddon PC demo is available today, but only if you subscribe to OnLive.
