Athletes Don’t Own Their Tattoos. That’s a Problem for Video Game Developers.

Sports video games strive for realism by closely replicating real-life players, but digitally reproducing their tattoos has led to court fights over ownership rights.

talk about greyest of a grey area, they just replace the authentic ones and replace them with generic kind. But that also hurt that person's authenticity....

TheUndertaker852370d ago (Edited 2370d ago )

Not just authenticity but personality too. Most people have some pretty good meanings behind the tattoos that they choose. Adding a generic one or removing them all together causes players to lose part of who they are.

Granted in this instance it’s a video game representation but that representation is a reflection of each individual player.

Hell itcost me 99 dollars deluxe edtion formy player to be a crub at overall 75 pay the artist a few bucks

RememberThe3572370d ago

The game costs a lot so the publisher can afford to pay the artist royalties. I think.

In modern computer games, each company tries to make players as realistic as possible.

Yeah, what the flying ****? How can someone own something that has become a part of your body? Creepy.

I think I the tatoo artists who usually design it.

kevnb2369d ago

ya that makes sense, but I think there are times when exceptions should be made. If we are drawing a person the tattoos should be fair game, if we are just copying the tattoos for any other reason then sure, sue them.

roadkillers2369d ago

Honestly, I do not buy NBA because a basketball player has a tattoo I like..

Skankinruby2370d ago

This is an odd fact I was unaware of, I dont do the tattoo thing so I'm unaware of the rules. Does this apply to everyone or just celebrities

Its time Damian ...and his mother too & how his son came to be will be a big part in a background story of a Batman movie, series or game.

I'd have rather seen Terry than Damian especially to see what they could have done with Terry in the Arkhamverse

excaliburps4h ago

No, WB doesn't want anything fun since suits want live service garbage for max revenue. LOL!

Shame. If we are getting any Batman games like these, it'll be years away.

"Players can now hide system apps, pin favorites to the list, and reduce the number of tiles displayed. This update is part of our ongoing effort to make Home more personal, flexible, and responsive to feedback."

This is welcomed, i like a less cluttered home screen.

Gotta be a slow news day when a 18 hours and 3 comments (now 4)makes it to the front page🤷🏿
.
Well anything that adds and help gamers is a good thing even if some don’t need it there’ll be more that will use it.

darthv7210m ago

Well its MS news... those are usually pretty dry, unless it has something to do with another game being ported to PS. then its top of the pops.
