Cloud saves and why I now care about PSN +

By bobafettjm March 9, 2011 13 Comments

 So up until now I honestly have not cared one bit about PSN +. I primarily play the Xbox 360 and Live has been all that I needed and I have gladly payed for it for the past 7 years or so. Well recently I moved my Live profile to a USB thumb drive, which then corrupted said profile. So I figure no big deal I will go ahead and delete my profile and recover it. Well silly me going too fast, the system did not recognize that I had hit up and so I ended up deleting profile and all items. So in this whole process I ended up losing every save file I had since the Xbox 360 launch. 
 
 So now Sony is adding this fancy cloud storage for save files for it's PSN + members. Boy would this feature have been handy to have on Xbox Live for when I accidentally deleted all of my save files. So for the first time since it's debut I am pining for a feature that PSN + members get. I really hope that Microsoft decides to implement a similar feature into Live, but until then I think I might have to become a PSN + member also. Kudos to Sony for this feature and I hope to see more awesome features like this in the future.
