    As some of you know, someone with not much common sense put up
    a post offering for sale some betas. The problem is the game was not
    canceled, but TBA. As we speak millions of dollars are being spent on
    efforts that create jobs for our friends and industry.

    The post was deleted promptly, but the issue caused concern for
    the IP holder.

    We've received a take down notice for the the offending content.

    Even though all content was removed within hours, some site member
    decided to make a news story out of it, instead of reporting the offense.

    Shameful action by both parties if you ask me, both seeking to profit off
    of the event, directly or via advertising money.

    1. Offending content was removed
    2. Our commitment to prohibiting activity that harms our
    industry and friends is made known.
    3. User dulledblade was informed of the infringement and his account
    removed to prevent any contact with him about the infringing items.

    The good old "why is the site responsible for it's users" policy. Will never get away.

    I'm glad this was resolved smoothly. I actually can't wait to get my hand on an official copy ;-) of that new Splatterhouse. Bring some more Ridge Racer too Mr Namco, please :pray:

    I doubt its necessary. I hadn't heard anything of the new splatterhouse in ages. I'd probably make the same mistake
