Quoted from Drano:I suspect that John may feel this way. He has aluded to it in the past, but I cannot speak for him.
I definitely get a vibe that he was staking a claim. He's always come off as super protective of his ideas and not willing to show the world very much for fear of being copied/ripped off in some way.
-Jpop didn't invent Zombies
-Jpop didn't invent Adventureland….there's a movie called Adventureland.
-There's also a movie called Zombieland.
So…one could conclude that Jpop is ripping off 3 existing things for this game. Stern merely licensed a TV show.
