In the immortal words of one Pete Maverick Mitchell, I feel the need, the need for speed, and usually that need hits at the most inopportune times. But now thanks to a collaboration between OnLive and War Thunder I can feed that need no matter where I am or what I’m doing.
What was once thought of as impossible now just needs a decent internet connection, a supported android tablet, a controller and a subscription to OnLive. Thanks to OnLive’s CloudLift technology all the heavy graphics lifting is done high up above in the server room in the skies so you can fly the unfriendly skies and blow up any and all takers in War Thunder.
If you don’t feel like lugging your computer out into the living room and happen to have a Vizio Co-Star or supported LG Google TV you’ll be happily playing as well on your giant couch. Kickback and play War Thunder without needing all those wires and all that mess, just an intense evening between you, the TV, OnLive and War Thunder.
We’re certain the technology behind OnLive isn’t cheap, they do all the heavy lifting after all so you will be required to pay a monthly sub to get all the graphical goodness of your favorite video games, like War Thunder, no matter where you are. While War Thunder is free to play a month subscription to OnLive with CloudLift technology costs $7.95/£4.95 and includes a 7 day trial. That would be a great time to make sure OnLive fits into your lifestyle and works on all the devices you need it to.
