OnLive claims to have compression time down to 1 millisecond. I'm not sure how long decompression takes, but it would be more accurate to say "the latency will be ping + 1ms + decompression time worse than a local game".
Anyone have stats on latency for decompressing 720p video?
BTW: Local game latencies for 30fps games are often (30ms/2 average time between controller input and controller sampling) + (30ms gameplay&physics processing) + (30ms CPU-side graphics) + (30ms GPU-side graphics) + (30-90ms TV signal processing) >= 135ms.
I had a chance to play Mirror's Edge through OnLive at GDC. They were claiming a 50ms ping to the server for that setup. I choose that game because I am very familiar with it and it is a very demanding. The extra lag was noticable, but still playable.
