Comment on EA opens up more patents for increasing Accessibility in gaming

  If the idea already existed EA wouldn’t have been issued the patent. That’s part of the process of obtaining the patent.

  Point is moot because the patent was issued.

    My point is if they created something without patenting it, it is no longer possible for anyone to patent it.
