Grand Theft Patent
That really sucks. They will get away with it.
Just saw the above photo of Rock Star’s new swag box to promote Grand Theft Auto IV and did a double take.
Believe it or not, I invented the giant foam shocker hand in 2004 and actually got a legit US Patent for the stupid thing. Really. So, it looks like Rock Star Games is in violation of United States Patent #D495749S!
Lucky for them, they’re one of CollegeHumor’s biggest advertising clients. Though I must admit a high drama court case over “the shocker” would be a funny thing to see.
