The patent for the loading screen mini games should expire soon, right? I'm hoping it makes a comeback soon.

Already has, but loading screens are too quick now to make it worth actually doing.

And they've flipped it. Instead of putting games in your loading screens, they just hide the loading within the game, now.

I honestly love this. I find it interesting to spot the times when games do this. I think the Mass Effect elevators was the first game I really noticed it in, but some games are really good at hiding it.
