Who was bashing "the cloud" in general? Any examples? I'm forced to assume you're talking about blowback towards Crackdown 3, and the narrative that was being spun around it. From the well founded doubt that was present at it's unveiling, to the vindication of said doubt that enveloped it's launch, all the way to the ghost-town that is the current, cloud assisted, Crackdown 3 multiplayer landscape. That's the only "cloud bashing" I can recall, and it was well deserved.

Many believed the power of the Cloud didnt exist even when Cloud computing is a thing and was proven. Sure it was prematured by MS at the start but i still read comments just like yours and think, ironic. I agree it wasnt ready for consoles but i never daubted the technology.

Makes me laugh because those who hated it or bashed it this gen are going to be using it next gen and even funnier that they will be using MSs power of the cloud as well. Just like the haters who hated digital gaming to now have accepted digital gaming. The console industry is a funny place.
