Patent number: 8602892Abstract: Conventional game consoles have a preference to connect to the Internet, which facilitates audio communications by gamers. However, when conventional game consoles are connected over a local area network, they somehow inhibit audio communications. A game communications exchange is coupled to game consoles and audio gear sets of gamers to facilitate audio communications by creating a common channel and distribute audio information from the common channel.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2007Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Assignee: AG Acquisition CorporationInventors: Jordan Reiss, Paul Donovan, David Northway, Adam Barry

Patent number: 8571695Abstract: A daisy-chainable game exchange facilitates social networking among at least two game consoles by allowing gamers to share audio information, such as voice communication, without having to play the identical game or connect via a local area network or a wide area network such as the Internet. Control of voice communication and game audio information is facilitated to allow gamers to focus better on social networking through a stream of voice communication or to refocus on game play through the stream of game audio information without losing either stream.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2008Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: AG Acquisition CorporationInventors: Jordan Reiss, Paul Donovan

Patent number: 8335335Abstract: A headset comprises two earphones joined together by a band which can be worn over the head of a wearer. Each earphone includes a noise plate, which functions to attenuate or eliminate noise from the environment such as a tournament gaming environment. The noise plate includes an aperture through which a boom assembly that houses a microphone may engage to transmit utterances of the wearer to audio processing circuitry. A grille can be exposed when the noise plate is removed, which allows sounds produced in the ambient environment to enter the earphone.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2012Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Assignee: Astro Gaming, Inc.Inventors: Jordan Reiss, Kurt Dammermann, Joshua LaTendresse, Adam Barry, Dana Krieger, Brett Lovelady
