It might make sense for single player game saves but the real beneficiary will be Microsoft who can determine what games are selling well and still maintaining customer interest. Oh and the NSA.

Because it sits on the top of a TV off which I assume the majority are black?

True, though next to the white box it looks odd.

PlayStation 4 will download remote purchases automatically http://www.computerandvideogames.com/42 ... matically/That would be great if I could rely on Team Moron not switching off the router in this house.

Automatic downloads can be very useful especially if games have large downloads. Though my concern is if it clashes with something else that is running on the users network. I am usually streaming TV during the day and evening so would not want it to cause that to break up. If it can be set to download within limits then that could offset many peoples issues with background loading. Looks like they will be happy.

Do you think that Microsoft have realised the numbers of fail boats that they have launched recently? This looks like they are finally listening to customers. Though why on earth did they ever think that this would float?
