i've never played the sega game so i can't compare... but sega is suing the simpsons over the simpsons road rage game. apparently it's almost a direct copy of a game called crazy taxi?

Sega sucks, I never liked any of their games or their systems. Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast... always got beat by Sony or Nintendo.

man fuck sega, they should do the right thing.
which is, of course, bitch about the rip on a message board and not do anything substantial towards protecting their work.

Sega made Jet Grind Radio and I love that game. Only redeeming Sega quality.

sega has made some good games, but this claim is laughable at best. if i were radical/fox interactive i'd just say, 'no, we intended to rip GTA3, we'd never purposely rip a $9.99 bargain bin game from a has-been system.'

actually that simpsons road rage game is exactly like crazy taxi. mitsu, you're thinking of that new simpsons game, which yes is pretty much like GTA in springfield.
i dunno, i always loved sega. they've made some great games that no other company would ever do, Jet Set radio, otogi, panzer dragoon, shenmue, rez.... i could go on and on.

seems silly...i mean if you break games down i doubt that there are more than 10 "original" scenerios...from there characters / plot change but that is about it...

wow, iD should sue all first person shooters.

ah, your right newgun. still that's still an absurd claim.
