Activision gets sued...again - NintendoPals.net Nintendo Friend Codes Forum

well we heard about Courtney Love suing activision and this is similar. The band "No Doubt" is suing them because it "transformed No Doubt band members into a virtual karaoke circus act" by having them "sing, dance and perform over sixty songs" without getting their permission in the newly released game band hero.

You might want to put that on your front post too. Honestly I think this is Band Hero's fault. Not No Doubt even though they were put in a Video Game.

the only reason this is happening is cause of the courtney love lawsuit. This wouldve never came up in one of their minds if it hadnt been for that. And @ the steevo they signed a contract allwoing them to be used it just did not say anything about other songs than their own.

not just the courtney love lawsuit, No Doubt's lead singer Gwen Stefani sues Activision also on the band hero subject.

they didn't want to be used to sing another persons song like the song honky tonk women

but Activision refused to remove a feature in the game now they will be in even bigger trouble. They'll be sinking in lawsuits.

yes but i srsly doubt that will happen cause they signed a contract that they would be the game and they should had known from previous gh games that they were having them play other songs (ex: ozzy singing la bamba)
