In short of things;

- Vivendi merged with Activision
- Activison dropped Brutal Legend
- Double Fine looked for publisher, according to sources of Variety, Activison tried to block that process
- Double Fine sings up with EA Partners
- Activision sues Double Fine to stop release of Brutal Legend

And the reason? Oh it had garnered plenty of attention at E3 that now Activison wants a piece of that pie. :\

Oh its just not "sequel" worthy enough is why they dropped it? Just disgusting.

What I'm exactly wondering is how Activision even intends to hold up in court without getting laughed at by everyone inside.

If they gave up all legal rights to the game, they can't do anything about it, and as a company they should know better than to try something so frivolous as this. It's a bad move definitely on their part both from a financial and reputation standpoint.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
