DreamTR Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Has anyone encountered any legal issues with the recent release of MIA? Nope, I personally find it more of a $$$ thing that a worry about being sued. If you do what you do and follow along when they send you a C&D (if that was to ever even happen) your normally fine what I gather. I know where to get the unreleased proto's but I sure as hell don't have the cash to buy them. There has not been a single case yet where a company has taken full legal action agenst a hobbist for dumping out a unreleased proto but I wouldn't even bat an eye if some juggernaut did do such a thing to protect there IP. Actually, the legal guys who owned the IP for Diablo went a little awry when the unreleased Game Boy demo version was sold on ebay, then posted on You Tube. Mitch: I am just going by what I saw DP trying to sell it for. It said $5000 to anyone that wants it, and it sold pretty quick, so I figured that was the price.

It said $5000 to anyone that wants it, and it sold pretty quick, so I figured that was the price. No problem, $5000 was the original asking price. After several months of no takers we came to an agreement on a lower price. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Allan Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 (edited) What about plutos? Allan Last I heard it was not for sale. Mitch Hell, last I heard they had trouble keeping it from crashing. I actually witnessed that. It only would play for 10-15 seconds and then crash. It looked really cool though. A two player scrolling space shooter. If you what to play it it was programmed for the STs. Allan Edited September 23, 2007 by Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you what to play it it was programmed for the STs. Allan I heard that same story. I wonder why it kept crashing? Was it the game code itself, or the board? It seems odd that the programmer would bother to burn a version of the game that wasn't stable for more than a few seconds. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
