OnLive Expands To Tablets & Phones

Starting this fall, OnLive subscribers will be able to play their OnLive titles via their Android tablet, iPad, iPhone, or Android smartphone.

The functionality will be enabled via an OnLive Player App that will let subscribers play almost all of their titles on their tablet of phone. Games can be controlled by either touch controls or OnLive's wireless controller, and your tablet or phone itself can be used as a controller when used with an HDTV – kind of like Nintendo's new Wii U. Multiplayer play and in-game chat is also supported via these additional devices.

OnLive's reach is impressive, but we're curious how regular console games control when using only touch controls.
