It amazes me how silly some of you are.
This is nothing more then stern deciding to let Spooky know that they see them. You want to make tna and take a pile of our sales then this is what you are going to get. Spooky is not the only company trying to put a roof over someone's head and that has employees to protect. No one knows if stern is going to make Godzilla or not. None of you will be whining if Brian Eddie rolls out a killer Godzilla game next year with ZY artwork.
Yes it sucks for Charlie but there are lots of cool themes for him to do and now he knows how things will be with stern moving forward. They have the big stick and you have to be able to work around them.
Everyone always wants competition but expects them to help each other out and not really compete.
