"Don't buy the next gen PS!" was all I heard.
All of a sudden Xbox Live doesn't look so bad huh?
...right now PlayRoom is the only game that lets the viewers interact with the game...
Well that is a first for me. The topic creator necro'd his own thread.I think it's happening people!
But not as you might think.
It's Live From PlayStation the interactive ads that's being added to the Ustream & Twitch broadcasts. right now PlayRoom is the only game that lets the viewers interact with the game but I'm sure there will be more games that will be interactive from the viewer side & the patent is for cutting in between the interactions with ads.

On topic though, how often do these ads show up. I do not have a PS4, so limited info on my end. Do they show like regular ads?
Abstract
A system and method for placing an advertisement in a digital environment based upon a user's choice, subject to certain predetermined parameters, is disclosed. Through the method, a user is assigned a rating based upon, for example, his performance in a game. A list of advertisements which correspond to that rating is displayed to the user, who may then select a desired advertisement from the list. The selected advertisement is then displayed in the digital environment. Reports may be generated based upon the advertisements selected and the number of selections and/or impressions (e.g., uses or viewings) by the user, which may be sent to advertisers.

Genuinely shocked it wasn't already postedThe bump was worth it if not for this alone.
Media control 610 is responsible for handling various audio and video formats including advertisements.
Lots of companies have lots of patents. Worry about it when it comes to fruition, which it won't because it's stupid.
The PS4 has SPUs?The secondary chip in the PS4 was dubbed Media Con short for media controller & this patent show that it will also be used for handling ads in games.

What a lame bump.
That's a good way for me to sell my PS4 and all 20-30 games Sony. I would be shocked if Sony is that dumb though.
