Hahaha "No monetary damages are being sought."

--You can't get blood from a stone, Beth.

"The second part of the suit accuses Interplay of riding the coattails of Fallout 3"

Because Bethesda didn't ride the coattails of 1,2, and tactics? (Let's forget the bastard stepchild, shall we)

I'm sure none of this blitzkrieg of a lawsuit has anything to do with the financial success that was F3? Bethesda just *waiting* to jump on any other way to capitalize on their only real source of revenue besides Bland-ivion, The Mediocre Scrolls.

Jesus, really? They aren't making enough money? Nobody's allowed to buy the original games?

Someone wake up Todd Howard with a big fat lombardi slap, wouldja?

To be honest I was being sarcastic, 'course I want Interplay to pull through this, though something tells me they wont :/

I just posted this as news but I didn't see this thread. I thought it was pretty funny what Interplay did but it paid off for them I guess with the games hitting the top ten. I'm surprised Bethesda didn't act sooner, probably waiting for Interplay to get enough sales so Pete Hines could steal the money and make the suit worth wild.

Hello, Danny, you seem to have an acute amnesia. Meet Rad Resistance, he's racist in the tasteless sense, not even trying to be funny; but doing it until we're sick of reading all the bullshit he spits out onto our computer monitors.

I haven't forgotten, fair fellow; I'm trying to spread enlightenment through recognition. Suffice to say, it's a problem when even I have to step in.

I mean... everything he's said thus far has basically been... just... garbage. Literally NO redeeming value whatsoever. I mean, I know I'm a douche and that my positive contribution to DaC is minimal at best, but still... the guy is just an utter waste of space. The volume his existence takes up would be better off as storage of spoons.

Rad Resistance has made some bad decisions in his life, and has had to turn to prostitution to make ends meet. Since only males hire prostitutes, and given the ethnic make up of the town he lives in, he has either a black or Jewish cock stuck in either his mouth or ass - sometimes both - for 16 hours day. No one can blame him for blowing off steam after a hard day of blowing cocks.
