THQ sues Activision over BAJA box art THQ has taken legal action against Activision for infringing on copyrighted cover artwork for off-road racer BAJA: Edge of Control. You may have noticed that Activision unveiled a rather similar-sounding game earlier this year called SCORE International Baja l000. Well, the similarities apparently don't stop there, as both box covers - THQ's made public first - depict a buggy racing in the foreground with a truck jumping in the air just slightly behind. The reason for all of this: "In order to avoid the customer confusion that is likely to occur if Activision proceeds with its planned release of its own game using packaging artwork virtually identical to THQ's," according to the legal papers (spotted by Joystiq). Matters have come to this because THQ has "exhausted all reasonable efforts" to get the design changed "voluntarily", apparently. BAJA: Edge of Control was released at the end of September on Xbox 360 and PS3.

And sega rally revo is the worst game i've ever played all you have to do is tape down the right trigger and your set(i actully did this and won ever race i entered),THE f***ING CAR TURNS FOR YOU and the cars hover like 20 inchs above the ground and just ahh don't get me started on this peice of s*** game so please tell me how a game were all you do is hold the trigger is fun?Personally i like a challange and not a game for a 3 month old
Not far behind is ridge racer 6.I for one thought that'd be a really good game as i loved the first 2 ridge racers but boy was i wrong

heeeeelllllllll nnnnoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love baja, i think thats probably the best offroad game to come out in years.
just imagine what they could have put together with a longer development time. baja 2 will be b***hin
i was looking into the one by activision and it looks like sh*t. which is why i say worst game ever.
i havent played sega rally revo, i wouldnt know. but if its gay then i assume its going to suck ass

if i wanted a racing game that had twisted metal mixed into it, then i would get full auto. i love that game to. freakin sweet.
they need to make another twisted metal game. if they can make one that is really good, i would buy a ps3 just to have it.
