Sony prepping PlayStation Cloud?

Cloud gaming is cool as an option, but I hope it does not become a standard.

I'm intrigued if its free.

Funny how you can tell an articles gonna be a shitty Mackuch piece of crap just from the headline, without even having to see it was in fact yet another vapid lazy piece of gutter trash copy+pasting.

Does Eddie just make up the news?

Cloud saves and such are nice. It is just the modern trend of replacing USB sticks with harddrive space accessible from the internet. Of course now they can look through all my saves and find out what I have been playing and such, but I think that is a good thing because devs can find out exactly what I play, how, and when and hopefully can produce more stuff that I like.

Bet it is only available for people that subscribe though...

Wait just few hours then we will have facts instead of rumors

Will PS4 offer backwards compatibility

with original PS3 game discs?

I can see this technology supporting MMO's, and Sony Tablets and Smartphones..

In theory it could be good, however as the internet infrastructure is basically pants in a lot of areas then basing the whole system on it would be a bad idea.

Aww I was hoping for the controller that could split apart.

Cloud gaming is a nice feature I just hope Sony doesn't over play it.

@jcnba28 @queuing_for_PS4 @FAIL_TR0LL @SteamyPotatoes Still play on it?

The rise of Skynet.

internet here is to slow for cloud gaming so looks like i might skip this gen console and stick with PC gaming

Please no! I dont want to stream any game online!!!! I already have to deal with trying not to go over the maximum limit on data cap for internet usage downloading large games off psn. But to stream to play them is a NO NO! I will be keeping my ps3 but it would be kind of nice not to have so many products hooked up to my tv...

lol at people whining about cloud gaming, its a great concept. do you also cry about netflix, how for $10 a month. you get to watch movies and stuff while not owning them. as long as the price is low for titles, its not going to be bad.

Lame. I'll wait til the end of its cycle to buy it, if at all; just like I have with PS3- just got on this past Christmas, but had a 360 early on. Hopefully Microsoft continues playing it smart since Sony's still using this foolish business method instead of paying attention to what made them succesful and and profitable in the VG industry with PS1 & PS2.

@queuing_for_PS4 @Double_Wide AHAHAHAHAHA YOU of all people telling someone to stop trolling. Oh that's just precious!

Forecast: Cloudy with a chance of streamballs.

I hope the cloud service only serves as a way to provide some form of backwards compatibilty for ps3 games. Because for anything other then that i think it will fail, just take a look at how Onlive fared.

It's to early to do serious cloudgaming.

As long as they don't force me to "stream" a game I'm fine with anything, I'd much rather have the game on the hard drive to be honest.

@jcnba28 @ptpattycakes Wii U is selling poorly and Nintendo has lost pretty much all 3rd party support for the system.

@jcnba28 Sony is on the verge of packing it up. If Playstation NEAR flops, rest assured Sony will leave the game hardware business.

backwards compatibility with the ps3 will definitely contribute to the ps4's success. put that on the cloud as well? sounds like it could be very popular indeed

One thing I know is that I'm not a fan of repaying for games I already purchased and I'm not a fan of having to pay monthly fees for something I already payed for as well. All I'm saying is that I'm hoping the PS3 playback is free for games I already have.

We're going to need *a lot* more bandwidth availability in my country before streaming games over the internet becomes a reality.

@Deadman_est1982 LOL, since when is 50% considered dirt cheap? They need to be $10 MAX if they want people to buy them.

Sounds like this is a harbinger to the PS4 blocking used games. Just let me pop my PS3 games in the PS4 and let me play them directly off the disc, none of this cloud streaming bullsh!t . . .

Tomorrow the world will see a new nuclear bomb called "PS4" Booooooooooooooooooooo to the haters.

@queuing_for_PS4 @nurnberg Look at his face bro...unless he's Slenderman in disguise of course.
