For the Capcom Legal dept

Post by kunoh »

Wow, ... just such a shameless theft of intellectual property..

http://g.kingory.com/regpv.do?sno=k2&ga=1&cam=NA-KT-Other_Topic-CPA&agn=Desktop&lp=13&gclid=CJj9wY3O-p0CFSReagodZkydqA

In short, it's an image of Chun-li but the game being advertised is something like Evony.
It's called "Kingory"

Nice painting though.

Yeah, somehow I doubt they asked Stanley Lau (Artgerm on Deviant Art) if they could use his artwork. Looks like posters there have already alerted him about it.

Dude, that's at least twice as bad as regular piracy. Like space piracy or something.

We usually just call it 'art theft'.

Between the stolen artwork, the generic font, and the china internet culture business license permit, I am just dying to give these guys my e-mail!

Don't worry I already did. They should be sending your confirmation and spam any minute now.

Ok, maybe I didn't...

Just because you don't give her thighs the size of Rhode Island doesn't make her not Chun-Li.

That's hilarious.
