According to PRNews, Sony has trademarked the name "PS CLOUD", and a further look into it you will see the domain name "playstationcloud.com" is taken.

So if processing power is provided over servers, the PS4 would be a paper weight after the servers get shut down. Not a good idea.

From what I read in the link it seems like cloud software would be line Onlive, everything is serverside. I could be wrong though.

Anything about the PS4 is NOT a must read. Seriously, the PS3 just got started.

So, like a typical ill-informed "Gamespotter". You're blowing two letters and a word completely out of context. If you just speculate....wait a minute, scrap that. IF YOU EVEN SNEEZE near "the word that suits you most". Guess what? Due to your automatic assumption, IT'S PLAYSTATION 4! Of coarse! It has to be! Because it says "Playstation 4" in a paragraph! It's never a fact that it could possibly be anything else.:roll:

Hell, even "digital distribution only" is a far stretch right now. At our current rate. Maybe for a few. But not for a mass population.

It's the message I've been putting out since they came here with that "OnLive" crap. Because it's "new"! ooooo! aaahhh! Completely dismissing the fact that it's unrealistic for the next 15 years at least (unless something drastic happens).

If a homeless guy can have a 20mps wireless connection for free. Then I'll believe it.:lol:

Exactly. its going to be at the very least a decade before it can become the prominent form of media delivery, hell 60% of people in the stats still use dial-up... OnLive wasn't an awful idea (it was pretty bad one) but its just not idealistic for 98% of gamers... even aside from the technical side of it, most people would still choose buying the actual physical item or having one of infinite downloads..

to be honest the ps4 is probably 2-3 years away at most

the ps3 will be about 6-7 years old by then

Considering Uncharted 2 already has next gen graphics I don't expect any new hardware. I already know what the Cloud is however I can't remember, maybe for the life of me :P

with current technology cloud computing is only a solution for simple office software like spreadsheets, text documents, etc, however to implement it for gaming we still need some brakthroughs in both processing and internet connection speed / bandwidth...

Sony will have a LOT of things trademarked, it happens all the time, you want to see how many 'Hero' related things Activision have trademarked just incase they want to use them in the future. Corporate policy.

This CLOUD thing doesn't necessarely mean its a new system, they say that Cloud technology was behing Windows, Azure and XBOX live online thingy, it is probably software, i dont believe it has anything to do with Hardware or a new system

thank you!

Everyone seems to think that just because Sony said the PS3 hasn't used its full potential yet, it means it will be out for 10 years as the latest system for Sony. Comon! I can make a safe bet that Sony is already planning on the PS4.. ATLEAST.

I want a VIP forum with only awesome Gamespot members allowed access. It'd be nice to know I'm walking into a forum with nothing but good topics/discussions. :
