New touch-enabled and mobile friendly version lets you take your investigations on the road

The most impressive thing about OnLive is that it works. The most exciting thing about OnLive is that it could change everything in terms of how we play games. The cloud gaming service streams titles directly to your TV (via the OnLive console) or PC. For those who’ve embraced the service, it means no more discs, no more long downloads and installations, and no more trips to your local game store. Following the release of OnLive’s Android app, comes news of a partnership between OnLive and Rockstar Games to make L.A. Noire a truly mobile experience.

The new touch-enabled version of L.A. Noire is now available exclusively through OnLive and will be compatible with its Android app. This means that you can start an investigation on your PC or TV in the darkness of your room at night and continue grilling suspects for clues with your tablet the very next day.
