OnLive, the potentially industry-changing streaming console game service, has announced that it is opening a public beta test.  Interested gamers can go to OnLive’s website, answer a few questions about their demographics and internet connection, and sign up for the beta.

Those who are selected will be sent an invite, and after a network performance test, become part of the test group, which will test out the likely buggy, laggy service at some point in the future. 

I still don’t know what to think of the OnLive service.  If it works, and I mean works, it could indelibly alter the landscape of the gaming world.  Of course, it could also end up being a huge flop.  Sadly, it could also take a third path; one where it works great, and is quickly forced out of the picture by copycat technologies from Microsoft and/or Sony.

I signed up.  Will you?
