Nice! Cool new features for PS Plus Members coming in firmware 3.7: Auto trophy syncing, auto cloud saving.
http://www.joystiq.com/2011/08/09/ps3-firmware-3-7-brings-auto-cloud-saves-trophy-sync-for-ps-pl/

Edit: Read the trophy syncing is not after every trophy. It's only once a night. Not as good then because I always sync after I'm done playing a game.

I read this on the Playstation Blog. It's unclear exactly how this is enabled. They seem to have lumped these new options under Automatic Download (now called Automatic Update). Does that mean in order to enable auto trophy syncing and auto cloud saving, I have to enable the automatic download of weekly content (videos and demos)? I really don't want to be automatically downloading all of that junk each week.


I'm not sure automatic download gets videos and demos.

Anyway I enabled it for the first time last night and it doesn't seemed like it uploaded the save of the game I played and where I turned on automatic upload so more testing is needed..

I dug up an old blog post when the details of Playstation Plus were first announced:

"Automatic Download: Subscribers will be able to set their PS3 to wake up from standby at any time of the day or night, download and install any game updates for the games you have been playing so you don’t have to think about it. Also, select demos and videos will be pushed to your PS3 ready to go. System software updates will also download automatically (manual install still required) and then the PS3 will turn itself off again."

I dont know about US, but in EU they stopped pushing demos and videos, after alot of complaints, using peoples bandwidth allowance for data they did not want was upsetting people. 

Hopefully they did the same in North America. It was an awful idea.

About a week to see if PS3 gets a price drop...


I doubt any price drop would kick in before October and usually they tend to get tight lips about those until the last moment...

I think I'm going to do what I should have done a long time ago and cancel my gamefly subscription.
There's really no point for me to pay 24$ a month to end up playing 3 rented games/year, especially when I could purchase those 3 games for 25$ each........
Might as well save some money and give whatever money I spend to the developers instead of gamefly...

Basically right now I buy a dozen games/year and rent 3, in the future I will just buy 13-14 and be done with it ;)
Heck if I wanted I could buy 16-17 and still save some money compared to now ( esp as most of the games on my gameq are old games...)

 

I had subscribed originally because i wanted to plat a few games and didn't want those in my library as I didn't think those were that great games but these days most of the games in my list are actually fairly good games I woudn't mind owning....

I've bought/won 48 games this year for a total of about $450.  That's only 50% more than the cost of your yearly gamefly subscription, haha.

I complete every game I buy.
