First things first, we don’t know when OnLive will be released, so don’t take this as a post that says the service will be released within the coming months. I think it is possible, but I don’t have concrete evidence. OnLive is not indie, but they will support some Indie Games.
If you haven’t already heard the next possible big “platform” might be the new OnLive service, which makes some question “will console and pc people finally be able to fight?”. This question, to my knowledge, still hasn’t been answered. There is one thing though that is a fact, OnLive could be a great gaming service. There are still questions to the logistics and how well things will work for playing games on the platform, but this post isn’t about that. If you haven’t heard of OnLive, check this link out.
OnLive has recently added the ability to be added to the “waiting list”. With the signup there is a special offer on a first come first serve basis, where you can win free OnLive service for a year. There are some stipulations, like if you win you won’t be playing games with a free membership. First year free users will mostly have access to demos, videos, and the like. They also get the option of signing up for another year at about $5 a month, which is great (and might include games[diddn't look that up], which you will have to pay for separately).
Well, if you want to sign up, check it out, if not it’s at least worth looking into. Oh and one more thing, you only have until July 15th to sign up, so hurry!
Register for the Waiting List (the free year stuff, you aren’t guaranteed a free year)

Well…if you’ve played Super Mario Bros. for the NES this question may have popped in your mind. There are those who beg to differ, but well…It is possible. Don’t believe it, watch this:
By the way, the source for this was: kotaku.com
Finally! After wishing to see it on hulu the original Gunslinger Girl has popped up on hulu. I highly recommend the series. As a hulu watcher I recommend you watch it soon. As a matter of fact, here’s the first episode:
If you want to watch the second series, Il Teatrino, it is also up on hulu (and has been for some time). I didn’t finish it and don’t feel it’s up to the standards of the first series, but in case you’re curious or have seen it and want to see it again, here’s the link: Watch the second Gunslinger Girl series here
And yea, some of you might be like “Glen, you’re crazy the second series is great”, but I say “I watched the original first, it has much higher standards and owns the second one”. But hey, post your opinons…
