Judge rules in PlayStation's favour in $500m patent infringement lawsuit

Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.

Big victory for Sony. And a long time coming.

Crazy to think the savings from this lawsuit allows them to develop one AAA game.

Make it Bloodborne 2, please and thank you.

Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.

Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both

Patents suck. Most of them are complete garbage.

So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.

One more victory for the bad guys.

i mean, the other side couldnt prove their argument at all haha.

they even sued Nintendo ha

So basically Genuine Enabling Technology(GET) claimed Sony is using their technology that allows the controller and console to recognize button input and motion controls. Sony made the argument that GET has to prove that the Dualshock and Dual sense controller had a component that resembles what they have in their patent diagram and when GET failed to do this, the judge sided with Sony.
