On the contrary, I want to be on the console that doesn't force this cloud crap down my throat. I want my own games on my own equipment.

Well said hoof. I'm not down with this cloud stuff. Don't get me started on 3D.

It's strange that Tom's should report this, since they know about Nvidia's GRID and Gaikai was one of the major companies pushing that stuff.

Anyway, predicted this during the last "Sony's buying Gaikai" article.

oh god yes... i want cloud save and backups of the previous saves on every system. you have no idea how much i hate being tied to the hdd in the console or the card i have in it, when they could both fail... cloud processing... not so much a want, but could be useful for renting games, like old pc games or even current ones.

I tried Onlive on the PC and it's definitely promising. I think cloud gaming has promise but it still needs a lot of work. The lag is a serious issue. It was impossible to play online etc... The next gen needs to skip cloud gaming as it stands and stick with hard-copies.
