You've all seen that patent that was uncovered recently, right?

Does everyone agree that it's the most stupid idea to have ever come out of Sony Computer Entertainment? Hell, it's even stupider than the PSP Go.

Can you imagine playing Metal Gear Solid 4 and midway through the final fist fight with Ocelot, the game slows to a crawl and an advert for Pedigree Dentastix pops-up?

The technology makes sense for me in regards to the new internet enabled televisions on the market, let's hope the tech is just used on them.

I really don't want to hear "We don't comment on rumour and speculation from Sony this time. I just hope that people rage about this enough that they're forced to just come out and say it won't be implemented.

If it is put into the next Sony console then i'm done with console gaming. All gaming even, due to my student lack of finances to buy a compotent gaming PC.

Anyways, figured i'd vent on here. How's everyone else feel about this?
