Ok ok, I was upset.

As for "playing the patent game", yeah I guess Google is finally deciding to fight fire with fire. As it stands now, though, Microsoft has on the order of 25 times as many patents as Google. I believe Microsoft was awarded more patents in the past year than Google has total. Google bid pi billion dollars on Nortel's portfolio, as if they aren't taking it seriously. I almost don't blame them when the whole system is essentially a joke.
