I doubt it.

Honestly, I doubt that's going to take off to begin with.

Yes, but Netflix doesn't render the game on a server and stream the video from said server to you. If that abomination has more than 1000 users online at any given moment, I wouldn't be surprised if their system just chokes and dies.

OnLive probably won't have Reach on it because Reach is an XBox 360 game. Games on OnLive are PC games. If Reach was on OnLive, it would have a Windows-compatible counterpart.

Eh... OnLive is for PC games...

True. Haven't heard much about it, so I have no idea. Microsoft likely won't let them do it.

onlive will fail since MS has introduced games on demand.
If by Games on Demand you mean the useless service that lets you download old games for much more then what their currently worth, then you have it all wrong. OnLive is a streaming service, much like you would stream a video on the internet. Whether it will work like it is supposed to is yet to be determined.

And to the OP, that won't happen until Microsoft releases a PC counterpart to Halo Reach. And seeing as how we have no news on a Halo 3 PC version, and with all the problems with Halo 2 PC, I doubt Microsoft will even want to port 3 or Reach over to the PC.
