Well it looks like OnLive is working well enough in beta to go for a real-live launch now. They've announced that the service will start June 17th and will include games from the big publishers that includes hits like Assassin's Creed 2, Borderlands and Mass Effect 2.

At GDC today, the CEO of OnLive said their would be somewhere from 12-25 titles at launch. No exactly a monster number there which is a little surprising given the amount of time they've been working on this. Subscribers get access for $14.95 per month.

I've already got all the gaming platforms covered so this isn't the product for me. I'm more interested in the potential for this to be used with the iPhone that we heard about a few months ago but nothing else has been said about that.

It's always interesting to see how game devs try to renew interest in franchise games that update frequently. This is most common in sports games like NBA, NFL varieties and now PGA. EA Sports is livening up Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 with some new features that actually are pretty interesting. The launch date for all the versions (iPhone, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360) is June 8th.

The one that caught my eye first was the fact that it will support Sony's still unnamed motion controller but they don't mention Natal support at all. Now that might not be a big deal because Natal was designed to be a more seamless controller that would work with most games anyway but we'll see if that works in practice without special code built into the game. Maybe it uses on-board game profiles to port support - that would make the most sense actually.

Codemasters just dumped two images from their newly announced Bodycount game and while they look nice, I'm not sure releasing only two images help bolster their claims that the game will "rip apart the First Person Shooter and deliver genre-defining gun play that comes alive in an orgy of bullets and destruction." Yeah, that's actually what the press release says.

Here's more:

Designed by Creative Director Stuart Black (co-creator and designer of Black, 2006), Bodycount is being created by an all-star development team using the EGO Game Technology Platform, an evolution of Codemasters’ award-winning engine, for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation3 computer entertainment system and scheduled for release in Q1 of 2011.

Wow, OK I better start mentally getting ready for this game because I don't want my world ripped apart without taking some precautions first.

EA is still trying to stomp out the bugs in their Battlefield: Bad Company 2 online servers but some progress has been made. After changes to the PC server provider files (R5) stability has improved and when gamers can connect there are fewer problems. That's the trick though, the EA Online servers have been spotty can can log you out or not let you log in at all. On top of that random disconnects and Punkbuster issues are still being looked at. At this point our BFBC2 server seems to be running fine but I expect it to crash soon if history is any indicator.

On the console side of things server issues are still being worked on and Xbox 360 and PS3 gamers are also having issues with the EA Online servers. There was a server restart last night but it's still not working right. This is from BFBC2's Twitter

EA server maintenance which is affecting the Xbox 360 BFBC2 is taking longer than expected. We'll have the servers back as soon as possible.

Boy am I embarrassed, just last week I mentioned that that MotoGP was the only non-car racing game in town. Looks like I forgot about the other sport-bike racing game SBK which is coming out with SBK X Superbike World Championship soon. I don't have a date just yet but I do have some new images that look pretty sweet.
