ND caught ripping off people AGAIN - Rail map this time

So not only did Naughty Dog rip off Ellen page's likeness for Ellie without her consent they went ahead and stole a dude's redesigned Boston rail map too without ever asking him. Just another sign that ND constantly steal others work and credit it as their own

Artist Cameron Booth and developer Naughty Dog are close to resolving an issue related to the developer using Booth's redesigned MBTA rail map in The Last of Us.

"I've just spoken with Naughty Dog over the phone in a very constructive conversation. Can't say more at the moment, but it seems as if matters will be resolved to everyone's satisfaction shortly," Booth wrote on his website.

Guess they were right when they called Uncharted 2 "Among Thieves" ;)

They aren't called "Naughty Dogs" for nothing.

Wasn't Ellen Page in TLOU?clyde46

This is lame. I'm sure they didn't know it was copyrighted. And who gives a shit about maps that were useless in the game?

Also ripped directly from Neogaf.

Wow, this is hilarious.

1. Game flops hard

2. Steals Ellen Pages Likeness

3. Steals boston maps.

The bad news just keeps on coming.

You are an idiot if you think this game "flopped hard." Step outside of Gamespot and System Wars occasionally.

It's only on SW where we use the term "Flop" for games, game flopped hard here. That's all that counts

Wow, way to make a big deal out of nothing :|

I wonder if this is just a case of an artist sticking it in there and no one questioning it.

Didn't something similar happen to borderlands with ripped artwork or something. The artist should take the heat for shit like that, its easy enough to pass off others work as your own, but its also easy to get caught out.

Btw, sean (off-topic) didn't you play that game on your sig already? The one with the baby? I seem to recall seeing a LP from you with that baby..or maybe I'm just confusing you with someone else...

Desmonic

Nope, not me anyway. I was gonna play it but you needed to pledge a huge amount for early access to the Alpha. Now the Alpha is public so I went for it.
