Microsoft Does the Right Thing
People got worried when modders imported Master Chief assets into the PS3 version of UT3, but according to an M$ lawyer, all is well.
The developers aren’t selling the mod, they’re not monetizing Microsoft’s IP, they’re just creating something to share their love of the Master Chief on a new platform…And no one is taking characters from PlayStation games (do they even have any games?) and putting them on our platform…
Happy in the pants.

What a smarmy response from the Microsoft lawyer. What a G-D smarmy response. Seriously. Please point to me the 360 game where you can IMPORT FAN MADE 3D MODELS INTO THE FUCKING GAME. I could be wrong, but that was an ill-informed response on Msoft’s part. Fucking amateurs.

Haha rory smash!
Just because MS’s stuff is locked up the wazoo, doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate them not pitching a hissy fit over this.
i.m.h.o. at least.
