Fan site might not be the right term, however, with statements like ”Modern Warfare 3 is an copy and paste experience that looks exactly like Modern Warfare 2, retracing the conflicts of its predeccessor (sic).” and “intel” like ”Cod is just like the madden games, same —- everytime. Idk how people can be so excited for an upcoming game they already have”.
Activision has brought the site to a lawsuit, and the 11-page legal document gives reasons by Activision as to why the respondent has no right or legitimate interest to the name.
Activision states, “It appears that the Respondent supports the game Battlefield from the game developer Electronic Arts (“EA”). EA is one of Complainant’s principal competitors in the video game industry, and Battlefield game competes in the marketplace with Complainant’s MODERN WARFARE games and its other military-themed shooter games in the CALL OF DUTY series.”
We’ll keep track of this story as it develops.
