    'Splosion Man

    Game » consists of 2 releases. Released Jul 22, 2009

    A 2.5D side-scrolling action-platformer from Twisted Pixel featuring a military experiment gone wrong, resulting in a molten man who can ’splode at will!

    Apparently Capcom ripped this off.

    This happens all the time everywhere. If this case went through, then there are a few dozen games who owe royalties to the movies Predator, Aliens, and Star Wars.

    @ryanwho: Whether it happens all the time or not doesn't change the fact that this is one of the funniest and most poorly executed examples that I can remember.

    Point being, there have been blatant rip-offs of games since pretty much forever.

    @ryanwho:@Hailinel: Okay sure, I guess I'm just shocked by the quality.
     
    I mean, just those few images you linked look like they took more time and skill to make than that whole game.
