We know cloud based storage is coming to the PS3. Â Exactly when it plans to arrive is another story entirely. Â In a recent rumor, Sony will introduce cloud based storage on the PS3 in a new feature called Online Saving. Â This will allow PS3 owners to save their game progresses remotely rather than on their physical storage devices. Â A cloud based system would allow this data to be accessed by other devices, and with the recent announcement of NGP and it’s capabilities this could be becoming a reality sooner than you think.
The new feature is rumored to be included in an upcoming firmware upgrade, 3.60. Â The downside, it will only be available to PlayStation Plus subscribers. Â This follows a long hiatus in news about cloud technology after filing the trademark “PS Cloud” back in 2009.
