^^ eh, its not sony ...its the game developers, its up to them if they want to implement it ...some games already have that function ...
No its Sony... really has VERY little to do with Game Devs..

u do realize that HOME is still in beta right?� i mean it just started its open beta like 3-4 months ago, ill admit that its not exactly what a lot of people expected it to be but its constantly evolving, what youre seeing in the video is some of sony's first BIG videogame-HOME cross interaction, yeah its not as big as sliced bread but its a start, stuff like this is why sony claims to lead the pack, we all know xbox live has a better communication set up with features like voice messages, cross invites, cross chat, party system but all those are from xbox days, yeah sure sony is behind the original xbox in some ways in terms of communication but its really not that serious or game ruining
and NO, it is game devs, the game devs have to apply it to there game music tracks so that it runs properly unlike this microsoft stuff where u hear outside music when you're not supposed to, i dont want to be hearing outside music during cutscenes, sony set it up to repace ingame music and not to be something constantly running externally

do u even know how it works for the ps3?� it has everything to do with game devs, thats why santa monica released a music patch for pixel junk monsters soon after as 2.4 came out
Im not going to comment on Home because its boring. Yes its still in beta but its boring. Period. As for the music.. you still didn't read what Iwrote properly. If SONY implements it in its firmware its up to the Game Devs to tweak it. But it should be a STANDARD FEATURE....
Example. Not all Xbox games play music during FMVS... Game Devs that properly align there games with the feature will have the music cut during keysequences...
So its really up to SONY to implement it.
A gaming system includes a game console that executes an application that creates and plays soundtracks through the gaming system. The application allows a user to create soundtracks by copying audio tracks from one or more audio sources. A user-created soundtrack can be associated with a particular game such that the user-created soundtrack is played during execution of the game instead of the game's default soundtrack.
This further proves my point. Its in the firmware not the game itself.?
As for The patent.. ?im SURE Sony could be creative and find a way around this. There should be MOREthan one way to create in game music...
