Some EA news this morning via Kotaku. This time EA is accused of ripping off tank and other designs from Warhammer for an upcoming game.
In question are two unit designs for the game’s “Forgotten” faction, the Bombard and Grinder tanks. Eagle-eyed Warhammer fans have noticed that they’re not just similar to vehicles introduced to the tabletop series over fifteen years ago (and to which rival publishers THQ own the video game rights). They’re almost identical.
Below are the units compared with their Warhammer counterparts, the relatively obscure Ork Bonecruncha and the not-at-all obscure Imperial Guard Baneblade.
What is wrong with EA?
Well, I’m confused. Here’s what I get out of this: EA stole a couple of tanks from an old game made buy another studio and stuck them in a beta version of a new game. Right so far? Then, a bunch of lawyers got involved and sued EA for stealing their client’s tanks and forced EA to pay Zillions of dollars And…..
…..WAIT…no lawyers?…no law suit?….and NO zillions of dollars?
And Kotaku is credible?
