Read this in the magazine Gameinformer today and it sounds pretty interesting to me.
http://www.gameinformer.com/News/Story/200903/N09.0324.1136.49546.htm

Now granted I wont be one rushing out the door to buy the first one (I think) but I do like the prospect of never shelling out 60-80 bucks for a game that after beaten hardley ever gets played again.And the prospect of playing every new game that comes out.Ofcourse that depends on how much the fee is to play.
And could it be true? To NEVER update your computer or graphics card just to play a game?

The article from the magazine (not the link above)does state one thing I didnt like such as.......

The online multiplayer is being restricted to to reginal servers I.E. If you live in California and your friend lives in N.Y. your bumming because you wont be able to play each other.

If they could get it too work around the World with no LAG I wonder if Close Comabt could make it to their list of games?

I hope they make it,could be the best thing to Gamming in a long time.

Shame I cant edit my posts anymore.

I'm assuming it means I can play all the sweet grapic and 3D games from my old computer.

Biggest problem I have with this is the lack of allowance for playing mods.

I read about this a couple of months ago.  It seems like the future of gaming, no doubt.  Pretty awesome that you can run any game on it's highest settings no matter what computer you're using (or so it seems).  The graphics card industry is going to be pissed.

Disappointing it currently only has 8 games to choose from.

The full press video on youtube is very interesting.

I think our house will end up with one of these if it gets a LOT more games on it.

No mods, dependency on connection, lags and you "buy" a game for only 3 years.
