The ‘cloud’ in basic terms means that if you are a PS3 console owner you will be able to save your games to a server instead of on your hard drive, according to Luke Plunkett over on Kotaku. The news comes from Sony speaking today with developers to tell them that the cloud feature was coming. Saving your games to the Sony server frees up room on your hard drive and not only that but it means you can access your gaming data for any game from wherever you happen to be as the cloud facility is linked to your PlayStation Network account.
You must login or register to view this content.
Of course if your PS3 dies on you it also means that your data is still safe. So what’s the snag? Well, you have to be a PlayStation Plus subscriber to use this extra service, which has been dubbed “Online Saving,” and also developers can opt out for certain games so it’s not exactly a ‘cover all’ situation. The forthcoming date for the 3.60 firmware update is not yet known.
Sony, you think you are making things better? Well, think twice! They made 3.56 to stop us from backing up games, and just now they make this "cloud" facility, we could be renting games and backing them up! /facepalm

I'm not updating it. There is no point. I can't play Black Ops online, which is why I'm not updating, so I only play Fifa 11. Plus, I think that they could make a 3.55 custom firmware, but I'm not sure...
