3D Realms Sued Over Earth No More

Kris Graft of Next-Gen.biz writes: Two men who claim to have come up with the idea for the action title Earth No More are suing 3D Realms for allegedly stealing their idea. Next-Gen speaks with the plaintiffs' lawyer.

The plaintiffs are seeking damages under the US Copyright Act, which can include actual damages such as a disgorgement of profits from the game, statutory damages of up to $150,000 plus attorneys' fees and an injunction against the 3D Realms' distribution of the property.

The complaint calls 3D Realms' Earth No More "virtually identical in substance" to the plaintiffs' property.
