Good news for Stumpy. He can play something better than Jeopardy PSN, and in return, he doesn't have to see ads.

Don't hurt me. :(

If anyone ever uses this to advertise, I will make it my life's mission to make sure nobody I know ever uses those products again.

Man that is some hilarious shit. You can't make this shit up. Ain't seen it before, so it's still funny regardless of age.

I dont care about used games, I dont care about digital only, I dont care ROPS, I dont care about power draw and I dont care about BC. But I swear to god if this becomes a "thing" in modern games, I'm done. If they find a way to integrate commercials that force you to do something to end or speed it up, into our games, I am 100% done with console gaming.

Patents would be better if everyone used IKEA guy.

I can just see him scratching his head when the controller won't properly flip the pickle.
 
The last picture shows a PlayStation 3 in the diagram? How old is the patent? Not all patents end up getting used/applied anyways. Some companies just like to keep it in case some other company uses the idea and they want to get loyalties afterwards.

100% sure this was posted sometime last year. Still hilarious.

Yep, but my god what a gloomy future that patent foretells lol. Not for PS4 or anything in particular (can't imagine that happening yet) but for all entertainment options in the medium-long term.
