Re: Wait a second... | |

In Response To: Wait a second... (Saint) : Wasn't it just a mod? A total conversion mod? If you're not making profit,
1) I just read up on "Fair Use," and, unfortunately, they conceded infringement in their letter (quoted by Dracon1k). Even if they hadn't done so, if the developers of the Halogen mod were shown to be able to gain from it in any way but an academic way, for any reason, it cancels any "Fair Use" argument (as I understand it), and they're back to square one. 2) Even if it did fall under "Fair Use," they can't afford to fight this. It truly sucks, but I don't think that Bungie can even do anything about this, as it is Microsoft that holds the copyright, and thus the reigns of the lawyers. ~Socrates |
