[QUOTE=Tetracycline;26258698]Why? It will only hurt the poor (not in earnings) programmers and shit the most[/QUOTE]
I hope they do as well. I know it hurts the programmers, but like I said earlier, Activision has a habit of pissing off people and not abiding to contracts with them.

So far, Activision lost one case (the No Doubt one), settled for two (the Gibson patent and the Courtney Love lawsuit), and had one case thrown out (the Romantics lawsuit).
Still, aside from them only having lost one case, it's low of them to have done this much to artists.
Activision deserves it, but seriously dude? Way to be like, 4 years late. Hardly anyone plays that game now, get over yourself.

Also, my comment is directed at Axl Rose.
Ugh. Axl Rose has, and will always be a fucking child.
Just because you have a decent voice and were in GnR doesn't make you a god you fucking douchebag.
Axl Rose is a whiny, greedy little man child.
he should stop living very soon.
I'm perfectly happy with either of the two outcomes of this lawsuit.
[QUOTE=slinkman;26257806]I say root for Activision, because where does that $20 million go? It goes to employees, game development, and shit like that. Where does $20 million go is Axel wins? To him and him alone.
Fuck Axel Rose, he's a bitch.[/QUOTE]
Goes to the employees and game development so they can fuck up more games and milk their fans ? how is that good ?
I hope they fucking lose, both sides are assholes, but just fucking look at this:

Don't you feel like killing it ?
so axl rose is suing because someone else appeared in the game?

I hope activision wins this lawsuit hard

[QUOTE=<man>;26257316]the greater of 2 evils.[/QUOTE]
Tough choice. Axl is being a dick because he is pretty much the only remaining member of GnR from 20 years ago...but Activision is run by Bobby Kotick, so I'm torn...
Bobby Kotick is to Video Gaming as Justin Bieber is to Music
Oh no! Who to side with? the Bitch of Rock'n'Roll or the asshole of gaming? Fuck them both.
i'm not saying this just to be a dick, but who really gives a fuck what side we are on?
"Skip Miller"?
Does everyone around whereever the fuck he's from have silly names?
One of the biggest things that makes this bullshit is how long it took him to file the fucking suit
Also....for some reason I never knew Slash's real name until this thread

The reason why It's "a big deal" without really being it is because it's the two most selfcentered dickheads the world of entertainment has ever known who are now "duking it out" so to speak.

not really kotick is a ceo he isn't involved in legal cases
it's more 1000 lawyers vs 1000 lawyers
axl rose is a really dumb name
I smell 40 Euro DLC's coming for Black Ops now...
When I say the first line and read "activision Blizzard" I thought of the SC2 level called "welcome to the jungle" and thought to myself "man, that game was released 2 months ago! why is he complaining about this just now". Then I found out it's about guitar hero 3. I don't even know the emoticon for my face right now.
He should leave Bobby dry.
I want him to win purely because activision needs to be stopped and Kotick is a massive cunt.

He's not making you pay for a single thing, quit bitching. Just don't buy his stuff and let the people who do like activision buy their stuff.
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;26261925]Bobby Kotick is to Video Gaming as Justin Bieber is to Music[/QUOTE]
He's more like the leaders of the corporations who own Justin.
I'd rather just watch the fireworks go off. I'm not sympathetic to either figure to be honest.
But there's a behind the scenes video where Slash talks to the camera and it even shows his doing the animation for smashing a guitar!
[QUOTE=Tetracycline;26261925]Bobby Kotick is to Video Gaming as Justin Bieber is to Music[/QUOTE]
no.
bobby doesn't have any fans
[QUOTE=yawmwen;26260455]They also used a song for advertising they weren't licensed to use.[/QUOTE]
that's not what he seems to be most upset about though
