Good to see game developers are still honist

Post by Mad_Maxine »

Ok so we know there are lots of ripoff of other games.. such as the simpsons wich has never had orignal ideas and mearly made games like tony hawks, gta, crazy taxi, but with worse physics and simpsons charactors, so this is nothing new,

A popular one is gta, there are so many 2d car games out there now, some good, some .. well ya,

but heres one from last year for phones, called Carjack City.

its a very grand theft auto type game and thats ok as long as its fun? its not trying to be anything else its just a gta style run around do missions stealing cars type game. all good. it kinda looks like gta but the graphics seem.. brighter and more.... well detailed the cars are detailed but the background seems kind of basic and bright, kinda looks like the cars i made back in... Oh hell.....

Yeah that ambulance caught my eye and it buged me for a while, so i dug up my old gta vertion, wich has not been modified since 2004, date is in the file, and well i mirrored it and behold it looks .. well Just Look.

I was a gta modder for a while and i downloaded many cool cars, so lets jsut have a look at some more screenshots of carjack city, a game wich was Sold, for money, to people, and a look at cars from Gtazz, a gta site that was popular theu the early years of 2000 and late 90s,

There are many more fimilia looking cars, but i cant seem to find them on gtazz (many cars were lost due to... i dunno.. some big fuckup)

So.. theres no light way of saying this .. so basicaly..

Im Fucking Piseed Off!

I think you have a right to more than that... why don't you write to them asking for royalties?

They're gonna laugh at her. Don't forget they have money. And money = Good lawyers.

Look at how many times Microsoft used other peep's idea/programs/scripts in theirs products and how many times they lost in court.

I highly doubt you'd be dealing with some huge conglomerate in a situation like this.

Seems like at least half-to most of the games made for the Iphone (for example) are cheap pieces of shit made by some lone lazy douchebag looking to make some quick change... and I wouldn't be surprised if that was exactly what was going on here.

I wish that developers of these games could be more original, if they do that who know it could be something worth playing but I will not support those who rip off other developers.
