On his official blog, Jaffe addresses what he sees as potential copyright infringements of the Twisted Metal and God of War franchises -- both of which he worked on at some point. Microsoft's Scrap Metal car-combat game and the upcoming War of the Gods movie hit a little too close to home for him. To clarify, he doesn't feel that Sony owns the rights to Greek mythology as a whole, of course, "but the TITLE? Sony DOES own that." Lawsuits for everybody! [Criminal Crackdown]

So David Jaffe has the copyright on car combat and psuedo-Greek mythology.

Right, me thinks someone is trying to stir up publicity for a certain game...

This guy is amaza-zing. I'm pretty sure that lawsuit would fail and be a complete waste of time and money.

Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

Okay... because they have a car combat game with metal in the title? That won't get very far.
