Heheh... Fraudulent games.
http://www.gametab.com/news/2625980/

It seems the trio that composes Majestic Studios got a tad lazy creating Limbo of the Lost.

Trailers:

And the trailers and dialog are of such horrendous quality it's impossible to take the game seriously anyways. :lol:
To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

The characters look like little plastic toys...

The ripoff doesn't really surprise me.

They also stole a ****load of Audio from Doom 3 from the sound of things.

Edit: Having watched those Videos, I'm not sure whether they should be suing under copyright laws or Human Rights laws...

Tri-Synergy have pulled the game. Something tells me that 3 game developers are going to have very big legal bills by the end of this...

I'm not buying any stocks in Majestic Studios, that's for sure.

Did they really think no one would notice? :D

Re: Heheh... Fraudulent games.
Thing that cracks me up is the first trailer posted by Cobra, in particular, the Grammar in the very first line of the intro....

'Mankind are the one that creates Evil on Earth.'

Not only does the entire wording of the intro sound like it was done by an over-exuberant 12 year old, but the grammar is terrible. It should be either 'Mankind IS the one...' or 'Mankind are the ones that create...'. One of the few examples of the English language where the singular or plural isn't important, and they still manage to screw it up.

There's simply no excuse for it these days, even unpaid developers manage to get past that level of quality control, particularly when you consider the game was -ahem- 'written' by 3 men from the UK.
