Comment on Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike
echodot@feddit.uk 19 hours agoThere is the additional case that apparently $0.10 wants to licence the IP. (Autocorrect has just changed the name to a price, and I’m inclined to leave it because it’s funny)
It sounds like what happened here is they developed the game and then approached Sony for the licence assuming they were going to get it (which is a bizarre thing to do because Sony were never going to give them a licence, anyone who knows anything about how Sony operate knows that)

Not sure I care about who will win that one, but if Sony can prove
tenc$0.10 actually came to them to get a Horizon licence, only to release “can’t believe it’s not Horizon” shortly after not getting it, that would be quite the smoking gun.It’s basically a proof that looking as similar as possible was their intention all along.
