Have you every wanted to record a gameplay session to show people, or simply relive yourself?  I have, and according to this patent, Microsoft might want to let you.  The long and short of it is this:  Microsoft filed for a patent in 2007 that just got approved on a DVR style feature that will run alongside some sort of television "client component."  It would essentially operate identically to the DVR many of us already have at home, except with the added feature of recording and storing videogame content along with music, and DVDs.  Seems like an obvious addition based on where Microsoft seems to be heading with their videogame consoles, but it's still a great feature to look forward to; now if they'd only figure out some way to let you send people things you've recorded, it would be perfect.
