Tim Schafer is our God

Activision has filed suit against Brutal Legend developer Double Fine Productions. The publisher isn’t happy about the game going to rival EA, claiming the developer didn’t provide Activision with a game after a $US15 million investment. How does Double Fine president Tim Schafer feel about that?

“Hey, if Activision liked it, then they should have put a ring on it,” Schafer said. “Oh great, now Beyoncé is going to sue me too.”

And that’s about the best official response to a lawsuit we’ve ever heard at Kotaku. If only legal battles could be settled in a matching of wits, instead of extended litigation and public relations disasters, the world would be a better place.
