7 Things PS4 Could Learn from Xbox One

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Better Cloud Support

The PlayStation 4 does have some amount of Cloud connectivity, but it’s an arduous task to sort out. One of the best things PS4 could learn from the Xbox One is how to do Cloud storage efficiently and effectively.

As it stands, if you play a game on Xbox One, your game save goes to the Cloud. If you go to a friend’s place and sign in, your game save comes with you. It’s a lot more complicated on PS4, with players needing to dive through several menus and settings to get it up and running.

Cloud support should be this seemless background piece of magic that just works. Having to worry about whether you're overwriting a game save or creating two instances of one piece of data adds too much hassle to what should be a simple task.
