US Court Orders Silicon Knights To Destroy All Unsold Copies Of UE3 Games

Posted on Friday, November 9 @ 09:10:53 Eastern by Alex_Osborn

As the case between Silicon Knights and Epic Games rages on, the situation only gets worse for the Canadian game developer.

A new court ruling has ordered the destruction of all unsold copies of titles that Silicon Knights has developed using Unreal Engine 3, namely Too Human and X-Men: Destiny. In addition, Epic's jury award was doubled from $4.5 million to $9 million.

Silicon Knights is now no longer allowed to use "Licensed Technology" from Epic Games and has until December 10th to remove any code that was built using the company's tech. Joystiq reached out to Epic for comment to which the company replied: "Epic Games appreciates the court's careful consideration of the motion and is gratified by the order."

    *scratch head* does that mean the digital copies too?

    kinda sucks though, the game was actually fun when co-oping. having a fully level berserker and murdering the hell out of everything was a blast

    And SK's punishment is the result of a lawsuit that THEY brought against Epic.

    Oops.

    Dyack is such a moron. All of their talent has moved on. They should really just close up shop.

    You look at Eternal Darkness and MGS: Twin Snakes and... you can't help but wonder "what happened?"

    Really disappointing.

    Agreed. They've fallen so far. Avatar games? Where the F*** is Killer Instinct 3?

    Yeah, I'm sure they'll remove all the infringing code in a month...not. If they could have hacked together a game engine in a month, they likely wouldn't have bothered with UE3 in the first place. Sounds like a death sentence to me, the infringing games probably aren't worth enough in sales to justify the development costs of complying with the order and putting the games back on sale.
