Cheating doesn’t pay, isn’t that how the saying goes? Except when a judge orders it to, of course.
Activision has been awarded a $14.4 million judgement in its lawsuit against a website that was selling cheat software giving players unfair advantages in Call of Duty games. Activision claimed it harmed the reputation of the game and ruined the game experience for non-cheating players. The judge agreed, and also ruled the domain must be transferred to Activision’s control. Gamesradar has more.
