So, first, this was Zynga's statement about EA suing them over their blatant copy of some shitty EA social sims game:

"Today we responded to EA's claims which we believe have no merit. We also filed a counterclaim which addresses actions by EA we believe to be anticompetitive and unlawful business practices, including legal threats and demands for no-hire agreements. We look forward to getting back to focusing all our efforts on delighting our players."

 

..then EA responded:

"This is a predictable subterfuge aimed at diverting attention from Zynga's persistent plagiarism of other artists and studios. Zynga would be better served trying to hold onto the shrinking number of employees they've got, rather than suing to acquire more."



Around the Network

I'm generally not for game developers suing each other for stealing ideas and style choices from other games as it may hamper the industry.

But in a case as obvious and lazy as Zynga's I say EA f@#k them hard
