GSC Would Consider STALKER: Apocalypse Legal Action

When word emerged in December that GSC Game World was back in operation Valentine Yeltyshev said they "would definitely win the legal action" against West Games for IP infringement over West's proposed shooter STALKER Apocalypse, but that they would not start it. Apparently, they've reconsidered, as the public relations director for the revived GSC Game World now tells Polygon that they would consider a lawsuit if it came to it. They don't offer a direct quote, put paraphrase him: "For the time being, Yeltyshev says that GSC is not at all concerned about West Games but will not hesitate to take action if they try to bring their STALKER game to market." He also repeats his explanation that the team at West Games was working on a Flash S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game, rather than a proper installment in the series. Yeltyshev also expresses skepticism over the untested crowdfunding platform West Games is using, and a perusal of the World Wide Funder website shows that at three percent funded, STALKER Apocalypse is one of their most successful projects, earning the game a spot as one of three images on the site's masthead (the other two are clipart). Thanks nin.
