Like always, big corpo's have patents on the most simple things and even game mechanics..
I understand that copying 1-1 isn't a good thing but at current state they're gonna even patent a color, number or letter
He, X? Patent my ass 😘

It's now expired but hardly anyone uses it today and guess why

in reply to stux⚡ • • •There have been patents issued for some utterly ridiculous things, over the years.
Obviousness, prior art, Simply Not Allowed (algorithms)... but they still get through.
I'm kind of glad that the algorithm patent that was submitted with my name on it got refused for prior art.

'Cos minigames aren't big any more?
No, it's in the name! They weren't big from the get go. Umm..
Because All games are mini games now coz of dlc?
Yeah nah?
