Haven't read the thread but my question is: Why now? The PS3 has been out for more than 4 years, I feel like I'm missing part of the story.

Retaliation. Sony sued LG on USA because of some mobile phones, so LG retaliated suing Sony on the PS3.

Yeah, but you cannot file a patent infringement lawsuit whenever you want. For example in France you have three years since the infringement (so, LG can't suit Sony in France), while in Italy and Spain 5 years and in the US 6 years...
