Ten Game Patents That Matter
The rumble. That Crazy Taxi arrow. And Pong. Website Gamasutra has a smart look at the industry's ten most important patents based on these metrics:
- Relativity to Video Games
- Financial Value
- Technological Importance
- The It-Factor
Gamasutra explains further:
Politics aside, it's difficult to select the top 10 video game patents when multiple patents have accomplished similar stature. Thus, we provide our top 10 types of video game patents, with examples for each. And by "type," we refer to what the patent (or its owner) has accomplished in the industry based on the invention described in the patent (i.e., we gave preference to patents that were actually enforced at some time or another).
A difficult, if not impossible, task. Head over and check out the full list. It's a good read.
