Chinese firm blatantly passes off someone elses game as their own.

Amazing scenes. Barely any effort to alter it.

There isn't really a good analogy better this and physical products, but I guess it's like creating a whole bunch of rip off oakleys (somehow for free) and putting a different log on them and flogging it.

Hilariously, the chinese version T&Cs state that you must not reverse engineer their reverse engineered game

This happens on a much bigger scale than this!

There is little you can do because you are basically going to be suing the Chinese government should you try and do anything about it they will just claim you haven't registered you designs properly.

That is particuarly bad though as they have literally stolen it, not copied it.

Check this out. One of these is a real BMW, one is a Chinese fake

The BMW example is less obnoxious imo. If it wasn't for the grill design it's just a generic fancy people carrier, BMW 'original' included. Good to see Chinese site/gamers come out against the game theft though.

Hmm chinese ripping something off, lol how this even news. If they actually used their talents to design original high quality stuff they would be unstoppable in the world.

But the words high quality, original & chinese will rarely live together in the same sentance outside of what i have just typed LOL
