I dont think that counts as a mini game, neither does the shooting or logo slashing in devil may cry.Pretty sure FIFA lets you take shots on goal while loading.
Armoury 2.0 needs to be epic.
I wish Halo would make the jump to 2 disc games. 1 Campaign 1 Multi.
I wonder how much more costly this is from a logistic stand point, and a development stand point.
Wait I thought this was just KyleJ joking, how can this be a real patent, what the hell?
http://www.giantbomb.com/interactive-loading-screen/92-1419/ said:Interestingly, Namco owns the US patent to minigames during load screens ( US patent 5,718,632) . This is why, in many of Namco's games minigames can be found during the load screens. Early Playstation releases by Namco saw old arcade classics such as Galaxian or Rally-X adaptations appear as minigames during loading times. Namco's own Tekken franchise has always been one to provide minigames during load times. The patent was filed November 27, 1995 and so likely expires November 27 2015.
They have enough money to do it
from reddit:How does Fifa get around the patent then? Its still a mini game during a load time. I suppose the complexity of the mini game is what determines if it breaches patent?
Whats to stop Namco or another company snapping up the patent again when it expires? I suppose theres ways to stop that kind of thing happening?
You'd have to read the language of the Namco patent, but I bet it's because that FIFA minigame technically isn't part of the load-screen... you can keep playing even after it's "loaded".
