Currently, Microsoft allows all Xbox Live Gold members to have 512mb of cloud storage. With the upcoming release of the Xbox One, Microsoft looks to expand this option. Microsoft will now allow all Live member access to cloud storage and not only that, it appears to upgrade the amount of storage from 512mb to unlimited. This means that gamers can now upload countless amounts of saves without a limit. Great of Microsoft to do something like this.

I'll believe it when I see it at launch. Until then I'm calling all the shenanigans because this just doesn't sound feasible... like at all. If you have even 5000 people making unlimited saves that's a megacrapton of data, but millions of people? Plus the space needed for like multiplayer and stuff? Really?

No one needs an unlimited amount, people will get excited but that's overkill.

This sounds interesting actually, I'm not sure just how necessary it is, but unlimited everything is always a welcome feature. I guess it will let people upload as many save files as they want and then access them elsewhere. I think it would only appeal to a small demographic of people that frequently log into different machines, but still it's a little bonus that you don't have to pay extra for.

It sounds really interesting but a little to outlandish in my opinion at least; while I could see them giving you a large chunk of cloud storage for your various games I can't believe there being no limit. Also I can't personally say I care for cloud storage for my games, while it is certainly a nice feature for if you're changing consoles/computers or just want to save space I don't do it because I don't always have internet.
