Battle.Net? What the heck? What does Prince of Qin have to do with Blizzard?

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

It doesn't, it's just what they call their match maker as well.

 

[Spazmo]

That's odd. I would expect the Vivendi/Blizzard legal team to be all over them for that, especially after Blizzard sued to force a movie called "Diablo" to change its name.

 

[Walks with the Snails]

Right, because we all know how seriously the authorities in China take copyright infringement.

 

[Spazmo]

Well, how about Strategy First, the North American publisher?

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

I don't think they run the Battle.net stuff, Object does. So, Blizzard wouldn't have much of a case against Strategy First, especially since the game didn't ship with the Battle.net stuff. It was added later.
