Kidd Cabbage Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Of course, Sony made the first move. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Sony is like a bowel movement. They can't comprehend the shit they're about to cause, and it's going to give them a scabby butt before it's all over... Quote
The Damned Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Yeah, I have some doubts about that happening. At worst, Sony will settle in-court with a fuckton of money and carry on as usual. They got a new portable coming and strong sales continuing to this day. Most likely, Sony will use it large team of lawyers to figure out a way out of it, and then stall like a son of a bitch. Quote
Bahamut Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Usually in these tech cases the point of the suing is to coerce parties into cross-licensing agreements as settlements that otherwise wouldn't really happen. This doesn't really strike me as particularly special. Quote
KyleJCrb Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Yeah, the chances of this actually happening are slim to none. Quote

linkspast Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 2 ha ha thanks for that.. perfect after work.. and its never going to happen, kind of like a few years back when Nintendo tried to get everyone else for using an analog stick in their controllers. or something like that. Amusing tho. Quote

Amusing tho. I think you're referring to the person who tried to sue nintendo. If memory serves, they actually won. Quote
Overflow Posted February 9, 2011 Author Posted February 9, 2011 There's been a lot of lawsuits, most of which came to nothing, but it seems like LG has almost 10 against Sony. What would it mean if they won? Would the selling of PS3s be banned, or the system recalled altogether? Quote
ocre Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Funny how worked up you all are getting over this. These pathetic plays for money occur all the time (where was LG when the PS3 first came out. HELLO 5 YEARS AGO). DOOM! GLOOM! I chalk it up to videogame journalist sensationalism. Guess it was a slow news week over at IGN. Also: image macro replies and general fanboy troll posts? There was a time on OCR when this was unacceptable. Also: No I'm not 'mad'. Just upset. Nyuck. Quote

Avatar of Justice Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 When I started working at a company once, they described typical corporate patent policy as MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction). Most of the time, they just want to use patents to threaten other companies who infringe upon their patents or piss them off. PS3 ain't gonna get banned. Quote
The Author Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 no there wasn't In fact, there was a time where even worse was acceptable. Quote
phill Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 In fact, there was a time where even worse was acceptable. There was a forum dedicated to such things too. Quote

Benjamin Briggs Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 stop using the word 'troll' I'm definitely with you on this one there are practically no trolls on ocr boards, and when they do appear they are swiftly banned because trolling isn't really tolerated what we do have here on ocr boards are a bunch of disillusioned assholes who take pleasure in publicly shaming people for insignificant mistakes Quote
