I thought it just me..Reading this thread title from the front page made it sound like they got $63 instead.
Which, I mean, well....that's a thing.
If Game Genie and Action Replay were legal, how is this illegal?
I would need to read more about it, but my first guess is that it breaks the game's EULA/TOS that everyone normally agrees to when playing any online game.If Game Genie and Action Replay were legal, how is this illegal?
Maybe they were seen as fun in those days. We have legit money competitions, now. Just my first brain fart thoughts on this.If Game Genie and Action Replay were legal, how is this illegal?
"What about disabled gamers?" is the question a lot of folks like to hide behind. That's what I was hit with the last time I waded into a thread about cheating with devices.With a court case on record other companies now have precedent to go after all cheat makers.
In before people try to justify being a dickless cheater in a competitive online FPS as usually happens in the Cronos threads.
I use cheats in single player games. I don't trust developers not to be fucking morons and go after cheat happens.With a court case on record other companies now have precedent to go after all cheat makers.

If they go after single player games I'll start to worry. but things like Online multiplayer where fairness is kind of needed. Yea throw the books at modders who cheat.It's good that they're going after multiplayer cheat makers, but I'm afraid how rulings like these might set an ugly precedent with respect to mods.
EULA are for the vast majority unenforceable, they will never hold in court. Corpos are counting on you not knowing it.I would need to read more about it, but my first guess is that it breaks the game's EULA/TOS that everyone normally agrees to when playing any online game.
Hell just downloading a save game file from Nexus would probably be technically illegal. Those TOS are brutal.It's good that they're going after multiplayer cheat makers, but I'm afraid how rulings like these might set an ugly precedent with respect to mods.
Only in your browser. And then people would switch to another browser.One could build on this to make ad blockers illegal and to punish the developers.
But most cheat makers don't actually play games.I would need to read more about it, but my first guess is that it breaks the game's EULA/TOS that everyone normally agrees to when playing any online game.
The $60k is the money they made off it.This is ridiculous.
They're online games, you don't need the *fucking law* to go after people that cheat on a stupid mindless online game, unless they make money off it.
This world is a parody or am I on crazy pills

Paid mods.But most cheat makers don't actually play games.
Either way, unless this is somehow linked to intent, mods are dead in US.

If someone makes a youtube app based off of Google's code and sells it, yes. Think Google have already shut-down apps like this before. But an ad blocker for a browser they don't own the code to - it wouldn't work.Alphabet (Google), like Bungee, could also say that ad blockers are modifying the copyrighted code of Youtube, either the html or javascript part, which is a copyright violation.
