Blizzard Sued by Prison Inmate for Ruining Life (More than it Already Was)
You’d think that prison inmates would warmly welcome ways to pass time behind bars that didn’t involve shoveling escape routes with spoons or lifting weights. It’s hard to believe, but I guess even porn and prison tattoos lose their appeal after a while, and eventually inmates turn to other means of entertainment. Strangely enough, however, one inmate is holding a grudge like nobody’s business against the world’s greatest time killer: World of Warcraft. I’d reckon that being an orc would probably be better than being your cellmate’s “bitch,” but maybe I’m mistaken.
Sony Computer Entertainment America and creative director David Jaffe are being sued in California District Court for copyright infringement relating to their massively successful God of War franchise, reports GamePolitics. It looks like the idea of a ripped Spartan warrior isn’t as original as Jaffe might have thought.
