3DO to Sue Lucas Arts

Author: DeathGiGasXG
Lucas Arts is being sued by 3DO. Apparently, Lucas Arts was notified before hand that they can't use the all important word "Starfighter" in their upcoming Playstation 2 title...


3DO, developer of all those Army Men titles, has filed a law suit against Lucas Arts. 3DO complains that Lucas Arts was notified by the US Patents Office on February 28, 2001, of its copyright infringement yet still continued to sell its Starfighter title. 3DO states that Lucas Art's actions in using "starfigher" as a part of their titles name will hurt 3DOs attempts to make a successful game. 3DO feels that Lucas Arts has violated these four areas mostly: The Lanham Act, Unfair Competition/False Designation of Origin, Unfair Competition/Deceptive Trade Practice, and Common Law Trademark Infringement. Thus, in lamens terms, Lucas Arts is in some trouble.

Lucas Arts and 3DO have yet to comment on this lawsuit. Will 3DO carry through with their copywright infringement lawsuit? We will keep you posted on the news to come.
