Holland Sues Sony!!! News

Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord set to sue Sony over likenesses appearing in This Is Football 2002 and This Is Football 2003…
Hollandâs top three domestic football teams, Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord, are set to sue SCEE, claiming that the developer illegally used the likeness of their players in This Is Football 2002 and the forthcoming This Is Football 2003.
The trio of clubs have already signed licenses with EA, however Sony claim that the FIFPRO license used in the game gives them permission to use player likenesses from those that are members of the organisation.
FIFPRO is an organisation for professional football players; agreements with FIFPRO include the one with SCEE for the âThis Is Footballâ franchise and with Konami for the âWinning Eleven/Pro Evolution Soccerâ series. As you can see the outcome of the dispute could have heavy repercussions on the games industry.
The dispute is set to go to court on August 15th, the trio of clubs want sales of This Is Football 2002 to be stopped in Holland, as well as ceasing the forthcoming release of This Is Football 2003 completely.
