Tom's Hardware and Respawn First recently reported on a fun new patent from those wiz kids at Microsoft, one that would dynamically pause your game to show you advertisements.

- "A content management system may suspend a user's interaction with the interactive software application based on the promoted content trigger event." (Emphasis mine)
- "A content management system may present the promoted audiovisual content to the user."
- "A content management system may establish a credit … the credit delays suspension of the user's interaction."
That's the sort ...
