OnLive microconsole to be sold through Game in UK this month

OnLive's microconsole has booked passage over to The Old World and will be arriving at Game in time for the holidays. MCV reports that retailer Game gets initial dibs on selling the streaming device, with others to follow in 2012. The OnLive service launched in the UK back on September 22.

"There's going to be a number of things we're doing," said OnLive CEO Steve Perlman. "Consumers will be able to play demos on Game's website, buy the OnLive game system in stores as well as top-up cards like XBLA and iTunes vouchers." OnLive subscription cards will also be sold in Game stores before year's end. Currently, OnLive has "millions" of users in the UK.
