Nuclear launch detected. The greatest thing to come out of France since fried potato sticks has been crushed under the heel of a faceless attorney. According to a forum post by one of the homebrew project developers, they have been forced to abandon StarLite for legal reasons.
Until Blizzard realizes that StarCraft on the DS would easily sell 3 times as many copies of World of Warcraft, does anyone have a copy of the last version (0.03) of Starlite? Thank you.
:( That's sad, StarLite was definitely one of the more promising homebrew-projects on the DS.
No doubt because of the use of the original artwork, no guru sprite artist that wants to create novel art for this game ? ;)
how exactly did they get a cease and desist order? and why listen to it, its not as if they have their personal details. or maybe they do ? I thought they posted their releases on a homebrew site
hahaha! i have it :D. so yeah, this was very dissapointing. but coulden't they just change the in-game sprites a little bit? i mean...and call it something else but "starlite"...this was bound to happen. well...sorry stardev. and yes i have a copy of the newest version :D
official release soon :)
taking all bets on the officail blizard version of starcraft ds's release date.
wankers thats all i can say, why they have to stop a homebrew project is beyond me, its not like they are losing money from it
Isn't it things like this we have http://hose.dcemu.co.uk/ for?
Blizzard SUX. They have become money-leeches since they developed WoW.
blizzard. stifling innovation since 2008
what i can't understand, though, is why? i can't see blizzard remaking starcraft for the ds anytime soon, anyway (if it ever happens, i will personally boycott it)
