Returning after a hiatus for E3 coverage, the "Question Of The Week" feature, a specific industry-related question to be answered by professional game developers and Gamasutra readers, takes a look at the patenting of video game ideas, in conjunction with
today's feature article on game patents.
The new question, which can be answered at
the official Question Of The Week page until June 7th, is: "Do you agree with the concept of patenting specific video game concepts, either game design ideas or technical innovations?"
As with the previous questions, the best responses will be compiled into an article to be published on the site, and users can either respond publically, with their name and company specifically cited, or anonymize their answers if they wish.
