If it seemed like OnLive was dead, then the recent launch of CloudLift should eliminate evidence to the same. The new cloud gaming service is offering consumers the ability to play any PC game they’ve downloaded from digital stores like Steam on pretty much any device.

This means you can play the supported games – which include Saints Row IV, Batman: Arkham Origins and Type:Rider – on your tablet, Mac, ultrabook, Google TV, you name it without any problems. You’ll need to subscribe at $15/£9.99 per month and then sync said PC games to your OnLive account but from there, it’s smooth sailing. You can even play on one device and continue where you left off on another, thanks to Cloud saves.

OnLive will also begin selling download codes for different games, which also grant a 7 day trial for CloudLift. It’ll be interesting to see where it goes but if the game catalog expands, it could be a pretty significant step forward. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.

With Google TV platform, the G3 Series’ speedy dual-core chipset and supposedly user-friendly interface, OnLive is looking to make console-quality games instantly accessible to TV viewers, without the need of a console or external disc media.

Considering they currently command a catalog of 300+ from more than 80 publishers, with every genre and market segment accounted for, it’s safe to say they mean business.

OnLive Chairman Gary Lauder states, “Our partnership with LG demonstrates the exciting future for cloud gaming as an integrated offering for connected TVs. OnLive’s proven gaming on-demand technology enables consumers to enjoy a vast catalog of console-quality games, with no additional hardware necessary beyond an OnLive controller and LG’s sophisticated and feature-rich Google TV.”

Georg Rasinski, Director of Home Entertainment Brand Management, LG Electronics USA said, “LG’s dual-core performance Google TVs, coupled with OnLive’s innovative games-on-demand service, makes access to the latest videogame entertainment quicker and easier than ever before. By integrating cloud gaming into our powerful G2 series TVs, the entertainment possibilities for consumers are virtually limitless.”
