So if you got new game releases like FIFA 08 and BioShock on your PC, you may soon be able to play these PC games on your Sony PS3 thanks to “Game Streams”.

According to a new “free-to-join website” called Streammy Game, you will be able to play PC games on your PlayStation 3 via IPTV channels called Game Streams and if this happens it could revolutionise the gaming industry.

The CEO behind this venture is called Richard Faria, the members of Streammy Game will get a free plug-in that converts games into the IPTV channels and will let the gamers play remotely by sending it over a home network.

This is then received by a second PC or laptop which then plays the game, now the first thing I thought was “LAG” but they are claiming there will be none.

If this works and indeed there is no lag, I would have to agree this could not only revolutionise the gaming industry but could help the Sony PS3 win against the Xbox 360.

Q4 of 2007 will see a Linux version released that enables PC games to be played on the PlayStation 3 and it does not stop there, as they also claim the games can be played on other devices like mobile phones, media devices, set top boxes and DVD players.

This is going to be amazing .
