Gamescom 2009: EA Brutally Legendary Stab at Activision

While introducing Brutal Legend creator, Tim Schaffer, EA's European General Manager, Dr Jens Uwe Intat, took a not at all sneaky swipe at Activision Blizzard. This follows the recent lawsuit in which Activision took on developer Double Fine after the latter had taken the game to EA. Details of that are here.

Saying that the game sees you battling monsters, Dr Intat smiled and pointed out that the devs, "last week slayed a particularly particularly huge and ugly monste: a team of lawyers and a disgruntled ex-partner." In short, "Burn!"

Is that really necessary in our world of business professionals? Stop laughing at the back.

Actually announced was a demo 17th September for PS3 and Xbox 360. Prior to the Rocktober release on October 16th.
