yay! down with activision dammit

awesum

no (one cares) doubt

Ugh. This country has an addiction to suing.

Didn't even know they had reunited

band hero? fuck my life

.. needing money for the records sales they won't be receiving next year?

yeah but activision deserve to be sued

Is that Courtney Love in the picture above?

I hate Activision, it is definitely a shame that they own COD: Modern Warfare.

Activision is way OP. Take em down son!

Dead Space is EA Ghostechoes...although they're both evil

My bad. I guess then Modern Warfare is the only IP Activision owns which I actually care about. And yes, both are evil, but recently EA seems less malign.

yeah but activision deserve to be sued

bull shit dude, I saw them this summer and they were absolutely fantastic

Activision sure do love to milk...

Ohh fucking wahh, who gives a shit if you're video game likeness is used to play other artists songs and not just your own...that's one of the most ridiculous things I've heard to come out of the Rockband/Guitar Hero/ect. camps.

Band Hero? Really? Where the hell did this one come from

it's not like they actually care about said issue. however, they do care that they found a loophole in the contract to make themselves some more money.

...yeah cause this worked so well for miss courtney love...


...just makes them look like elitist pricks...

So what if they get more face time on the game? These guys really need to get over themselves...

yay i hate activision! rock band is so much better! at least they get avatars of good bands like queen!

cool

what a stupid lawsuit. authorized for only 3 songs, not the others. IT'S NOT THAT BIG A DEAL! calm the hell down and don't be such money grubbing whores about it

i mean the lawsuit is not gona change the fact that you can play them as them on all the songs, its all about the money nothing else

i dont see why they give a fuck, so i wont

Why don't any of these bands sign a contract? Would that not make things alot easier?

first world problems.

"Take this pink ribbon off my eyes..."

Gwen is still a babe in her 40s.
And that's about all I have to say about that

Sounds like someone (no doubt) didn't read the fine print.

Why don't any of these bands sign a contract? Would that not make things alot easier?



No Doubt have filed a lawsuit against gaming company Activision, claiming "fraudulent inducement and breach of contract".



Apparently you can't read too well.

Like they really need the extra money. No Doubt just lost a little respect in my book.

just makes them look like elitist pricks


How exactly?


"my band is too ligit to be seen lip-synching to the likes of T-Swift, and Aly and AJ..."

i mean they ARE a pop band right...?

im sure there is some sort of fine print that they didnt understand... just like there was with Love...
i mean activision misleading artists isnt cool... and it prolly doesnt encourage artists to work with them in the future...

i still dont understand what the fuss is about...

maybe im reading this too similarly to the Kobain incident, where the reasoning behind the whole mess was primarily concerned with the image of the artist performing songs that are out of character and defaming their name... hence me thinking that it makes them sound pretentious...

... if activation owes them money then by all means i hope they get it... unfortunately for them, i bet activision has their bases covered...

... i say anyone has the right to claim a breach of contract... i just dont think they will get it... so why sound whinny in the process?

wtf..almost like they reunited to sue activision.

well...all i know is that Band Hero was the worst guitar hero game yet. its filled with the most shitty music you can gather together - all coupled from horrible pop music

I liked that Spider-Man game for the 64 back in the day, but Kurt looks like a dumb-ass in that game

They need to be sued
