Unreal Lawsuit: Silicon Knights vs. Epic Games News

Too Human developers issue a courtroom battle to the creators of Gears of War...
The long and troubled development of Silicon Knights' Too Human took a further twist today, with confirmation from GameDaily.biz that the Canadian developer has filed a lawsuit against Epic Games.
After several formats changes and well-documented issues with the game, Silicon Knights eventually settled on Epic's Unreal Engine 3 technology to bring the game to the Xbox 360.
Making its debut in Epic's Gears of War, the middleware platform has attracted widescale support and powers numerous titles currently in development; however, it seems Silicon Knights thinks slightly differently, with a scathing attack on its capabilities and inadequacies.
Speaking to GameDaily.biz, Silicon Knights president Dennis Dyack stated: "We stand behind everything in our complaint and believe it is highly unfortunate that Epic forced us into this situation. We would rather spend our time focusing on making great games, but as stated in our complaint, Epic simply refuses to acknowledge the inadequacies of the Unreal Engine 3 code it provides to its licensees," he said, "and refuses to accept the fact that its code has caused serious damage not only to Silicon Knights, but a number of other developers in the industry. We look forward to successful resolution of our claims in this court proceeding."
Responding earlier to the lawsuit, Epic Games' Mark Reign defended Unreal Engine 3, claiming that Silicon Knights complaints were unfounded and promised to defend the accusations in the courthouse.
We'd assume Unreal won't be behind Too Human Parts II & III then.
