Two Suits Concluded Today:
Capcom vs. MKR Productions (Dawn of the Dead guys) - The judge found that a story of zombies invading a town and someone trying to stop them is not protectable. Despite MKR's arguments that there were unmistakable similarities such as a fight scene in a mall, a helicopter ride, and zombies in plaid, the judge sided with Capcom. Another MKR's argument was that the products both contained social commentary about sensationalist media. The judge disagreed, leveling Dead Rising to a pure action experience with no social commentary - good for the suit, bad for the ego. The conclusion of the suit opened the door for Dead Rising 2: Already in Development.
Dawn of the Dead: The Lawsuit
THQ vs. Activision - The Baja Box Art Case - Activision agreed to change the box art in a settlement which will dismiss the case with prejudice. Why didn't Activision just do that the first time THW asked them to...it worked out well for me, the lawyer (well, not me, exactly, you know what I mean).
