This service actually allows users to stream gaming of games they already own. The service is only in Beta right now with anyone allowed to sign up and is currently limited to only a handful of games, basically you just sign-up and then sign-in with your Steam credentials. Once you are set up, any games you already own will be available to play anywhere using OnLive CloudLift service. The service will cost $14.99 a month and OnLive plans to add a lot more games in the future.

OnLive Go

The the first title to use the OnLive Go service is Second life and is called SL Go, while the title is in Beta, it allows users to play the game instantly without the need to download it, and of course mobile users and those without the specs required to play the games. Games using this service can also be added to the PlayPack service.
