PS3 software update takes gamers to the cloud

3.70 adds auto cloud save option and more
PS3 software update takes gamers to the cloud

Sony has ramped up its cloud services for PlayStation Plus users - adding automatic cloud saving within the latest PS3 update.

The feature means that, with the option enabled, gamers can bash away on their joypads killing prostitutes / soldiers / zombies, scoring goals, making putts and the like - all safe in the knowledge that their progress is being backed-up in cyberspace.

The PS3 3.70 firmware update also adds auto syncing of trophies and a new recommendation function that lets you tell your buddies which PlayStation Store items you like. You'll be able to send messages with a link from the product pages straight from the Store.

There's also a new entry for the XMB bar labelled TV/Video Services which will host the likes of Vudu and Hulu in the States, and presumably the BBC iPlayer here in Blighty.

The update also brings some Blu-ray tweaks such as Java 3D support and DTS-HD MA, DTS-HD HR decoding/bit stream output (or lossless audio) support for 3D movies.

Sony is saying that the 3.70 update will be available soon - along with a minor PSP update as well.
