    GameInformer


    I believe GameInformer took a quote from OS and did not give us Credit. Correct me If I am wrong but Ian Cummings wrote in the madden forums awhile ago "I study the hell out of [NFL 2k5] now because I personally don't want people to be able to compare us to them any more".

    I am pretty sure he wrote that here, If I am wrong you can delete this.

            Heh, sorry I couldn't find the GI article...but if it's any help, this site quotes him without giving OS credit as well. LINK

                  WOW!! That's quite interesting stuff. Impressed that they check the boards BUT they have to at least give the love where it was quoted. So.....does this mean that they frequent the boards a bit??

                    It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                      I was pondering that thought as well. I know a few forums have sued because something was taken from their board. I am a regular over at Forum.Skyscraperpage.com and they took legal action against a Tourism company out of San Diego ( I think) because they took something from that forum. I wonder if OperationSports.com could force GameInformer to at least give OS credit for the source.

                      Either way it is shoddy reporting, OS should have been given credit.

                        Yeah OS should do something.

                        Nice catch BTW, Cusefan.

                          I would be an absolute waste of money to sue. One, the "quote" wasnt from an article or interview. It was from the forums and a post on the forums cant be claimed as a copyrighted work. Two, its very possible that Ian has used that line several times or told GI the same thing.

                              lol I'm not saying sue, that's ridiculous. I'm just saying in BS that they did not give us credit.
