> Why would the trademark discussion even be relevant if you are an approved developed about to release on the PS4?
right. it wouldnt be relevant. but approved developers arent the only people downloading these.
> Why would Sony or Xbox come over your indie game for supporting their controllers?
i mean yes you probably will never have a problem and never get in trouble. sony wont come after you for using the symbols in your playstation games, and who would use them in a game that isnt going to be on the playstation? but i think what people are saying is you _could_ use them incorrectly and get yourself in trouble.
> Here is a list of games that used these controllers prompts and released on multiple platforms including PS4,Xbox and Switch
yes a lot of games have used these buttons and didnt get in trouble, but thats not really proof that you wont ever. look i cna do that too. here is a list of games that used the red cross on a white background for their medkits
Prison Architect Halo Transformers Half life Doom Final Fantasy 15 Alien vs Predator Alien: Resurrection Aliens: Colonial Marines Alpha Prime ARMA Battlefield BlackSite Borderlands Breed Bulletstorm Call of Duty Call of Juarez Carnivores Catacomb Darkwatch Day of Defeat Delta Force Dishonored Duke Nukem Dying Light blah blah blah, I didn't even get past teh letter D for the most part. there is lots more.
just because a bunch of AAA games did something doesnt mean its allowed. that doesnt mean noone should use these. but they should think about if the way theyre using the symbols is going to piss off sony. like withthelove said, its usually no problem under fair use. but OGA cant tell mpeople its fully safe without a little disclaimer about fair use.
i think its basically settled and agreed its no problem as long as there is a small notice abou t it.
other than the obvious "place the images next to each other", how could we possibly know how to get them to work for your game. You have not even told us what your game is. are you asking for hlep coding your game?
