People make mods all the time, shit look at games like Half-Life, Quake 2, etc. Alot of the mods are movies and other games, ie Matrix.

lolz
 

plus its kinda the fact that blizzard cant really do anything about people making a mod for another game that emulates diablo or diablo 2 in anyway shape or form.... plus its completly different then D2 anyway seeing as how its 3D and on a completly different game engine :P ...

I myself would love to see a D2 conversion for EQ that would put some badly needed new flavor into the game heh :)

Actually... Blizzard could sue the piss out of Hardy... If he was charging money, heheh. So could Sony. As long as it's free, there's nothing either company could do.

Thats not entirely true..

If I have the money to hire a lawyer, I could sue you for looking funny...

Most likely it would be thrown out of court, but the way most companies operate is they outspend their opponets on legals. You're going to spend a heap of money defending yourself, even if you're wrong, and many people will just give up and submit rather than fight.

It happened from a news mailing group abotu pet supplies. Amazing story that shows how screwed up the legal system is in the US. Guy badmouths a store that gave him lousy service on a news mail group, several people agree, store owner files a lawsuit in his home town, next to his office, against people over the internet who are supeoniaed to travel across the country to argue about them criticizing his horrible service. Said people could not afford that battle, and were basiclly forced to pay him damages. Cost to them, on average, 3k a person (8 people I believe). Cost to him. 25$ to file the lawsuit. His son was a lawyer so he got free legal advice.

So, to make a long story short, whether you're charging or not, you can be sued.

Will you? Most likely not, but in the vast realms of possibilty it could happen.
