These guys could be very interesting specimens to meet in real life. I'd really like to know what they're like. Maybe this whole mess is caused by three guys being unable to find any friends... :cheeky:

Sad thing is that those who really contributed to this silly project have their names now spoiled for good :nono:. Maybe listing up those who did something new for this "game" like that soundtrack artist would be in order.

These people make me sick. They're just low rent versions of corrupt Politicians and Corporate owners.

I think they just re-earned all the contempt the internet has been throwing at them.

What a load of crap!!! Complete & utter crap. There are no apologies for all the stuff they stole, just, "OOPS! We didn't know!" Oh yes, I believe that! :rolleyes:
Idiots, morons, reprehensible liars. :grr::mad:

This has to be a joke. Do they really think people are going to buy this? It's one thing for the publisher not to catch it, but for the dev team themselves (who are no doubt ardent gamers) to not notice it even if the images really did come from a third party is impossible.
