I'm guessing he got the rights to the movie, but not the actors in it. Maybe Arnold saw this and was like, HELL NO! Either way, I'm glad I bailed on this game when I did...Love the theme so much, but I just got the feeling this game was going to become a circus. And here we are, circus and all.

It's so obvious what has happened. They built a game that they did not have legal permission to build. Using the predator name / theme is one thing. Using Arnold's image, voice, music from movie is another. They are FUCKED! Look at Stern. A company with a lot of money that just made The Walking Dead and they had to leave out voice actors from the show due to rights. No way a little basement startup like Skit B got the rights to use Arnold's image and voice for this pin. Which means their game is now going to be a cluster fuck. Removing the game from all of their social media channels is indicative of ONE THING: Legal sent them a not to do so. My god, it's over for this pin. Did anyone really think these basement dwellers were really going to secure the rights to one of the greatest movies of all time and make only 250 games in the process? Heck Stern couldn't even afford the rights for TWD and they will sell a couple thousand of those games. This thing is done. Stick a fork in it. Not to mention the game looks likes crap and deserves a better treatment than this. It's over.
