Sony Sues Dave is a GameCenter article announcing that Sony Computer
Entertainment, Inc. (SCEI), and Sony Computer Entertainment America, Inc. (SCEA), have
filed a lawsuit against ActionWorld, Inc. over copyright infringement, contributory
copyright infringement, and unfair competition. The Sony suit, filed in the U.S. District
Court of Northern California, turns out to be the cause of the recent shutdown (story) at emulator site Dave's
Classics, ending a lot of wild (and mostly inaccurate) speculation over who was the
source of the "recent legal action" that closed the site. Thanks Ant. According to the article, Sony alleges that
"ActionWorld willfully copied the proprietary PlayStation BIOS onto the site, and
made it available as a download to visitors up until at least March 23." In an
interesting note, as this is being written, Dave's
Classics is back on line (at least for the moment).
