GuruGuru214 Well, this caused me to go and pick up a Wikipedia-level knowledge of copyright infringement, derivative work, and transformativeness. And that only gave me a headache, and while I understand a little more about what protections derivative works are entitled to, I wasn't able to get a good enough grasp on transformativeness to figure out whether a fan game would be considered transformative enough to have legal protection. Big words aside, though, this is utter bullshit. Bad Squenix, bad! I read the thing on derivative work, and it seems that Square Enix is just being a bully. According to what I read, A derivative work can have the same characters and art and stuff, so long as there is originality to the story, the art etc. Ever heard of Doujinshi? That's what I call a good example. If this goes to court, the makers of the new game could win on the count of not only is it clearly a derivative work, but the creators are not selling it either. If they sold it, then maybe Square would have something. If you agree with what I said, please quote.

Allegro Decavolty Allegro Decavolty It's business 101. The creator isnt making a profit, why should it allow it's creation to be modified? Because the modification wasn't going to turn a profit either? I dunno, you could always ask Valve.Doesnt matter, it's still SE's call. Not saying I agree with it, I'm saying they are well within their right. You can't definitively say that they're within their right. Copyright law is extremely fuzzy still. It's impossible to say who would win in court on a case like this.
The only argument the guys would have had is that it's been over 10 years (?) since the copyright was given, and even that is fuzzy.
You're right about not knowing, seeing as the devs didnt want to rock the boat. Spineless. Probably moneyless too. XD

RyomaKun1992 Decavolty It's business 101. The creator isnt making a profit, why should it allow it's creation to be modified? Ask evolution or whatever the hell created us. I don't see our creators or lack there of getting any money, but if the creator wants to make a profit they should listen to the damn consumers and make a new Chrono. I'm not saying they shouldn't get payed for their work, but it's just a little ******** annoying to see a multibillion dollar company so touchy about every little thing. (fixed)
Youtube's got an apprentice. stare
And KHII Final Mix was released in North America.

-Zephyrotica- Waynebrizzle I think it's funny that they cancel all these things yet the best they can do with the game is port it to DS and add an extra dungeon or whatever bull it was. Extra 3 dungeons, extra endboss, extra ending that won't make sense unless you go out and buy CC, which is almost impossible to find nowadays. xd I wonder if we're due for a CC remake next?
I guess that's not too bad actually. It just bothers me a lot that they didn't update the graphics at all.
