Games can be played through PC and Mac, iPad and Android tablets and by using OnLive's dedicated set top box and controller combo, which connects directly to an HDTV. Using a PC or a tablet incurs no cost other than the subscription fee, while the box and controller retail for 99.99. The UK price has yet to be finalised.
