 "This court case can be taken even less seriously because Estavillo is a sort of serial suer of game makers. His last lawsuit was launched against Sony for his being banned in Resistance: Fall of Man; at that time, he was reportedly enjoying the game Mortal Kombat Vs. DC, and was quoted by GamePolitics as saying he was obsessed with playing as the Joker, and planned to "wear a purple suit during [his] court trials" in tribute."

As long as the lawyer is being paid by the hour, its all fine. The man is just wasting his money.

the funniest thing after reading this... whilst watching my stepfather play Wow for about half an hour the other week I commented to him "why do they make you have to go everywhere at such a slow pace... It's just to hold you back from finishing everything so quickly... this game is stupid" maybe I should force him to start a lawsuit also.... 
 
also... who the hell would take a case like this on.... probably a  relative with a law degree or something..

Lawyers would take on any case as long as they are paid by the hour.

Wait, we can sue for bad game design (or unfavorable game design) !? Goddamn I gotta call my lawyer before a bunch of other assholes get in on this!
