Terra Nova brings us an update to the ongoing Marvel/NCSoft lawsuit over the "copying" of Marvel's superheroes by players of Cryptic's City of Heroes. According to the newsbit, NCSoft has filed a Motion to Dismiss in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Here's an excerpt from the motion that I felt said it all:
City of Heroes is a tool that encourages originality, not slavish copying. It allows young and old to exercise their imaginations to create super-powered beings and send them off to interact with the creations of other individuals in a virtual world called Paragon City. If it should be banned, then so should the #2 pencil, the Lego block, modeling clay, and anything else that allows one to give form to ideas. |
