TimeGate Sues Paramount Over Section 8

April 8th, 2009
According to Team Xbox, Kohan developer TimeGate has filed suit against Paramount Digital Entertainment and Paramount Pictures over the title of its upcoming game Section 8.
The studio alleges that Paramount illegally used the game’s name for an “interactive web series.” They also point out that Paramount announced the web series just three days after cancelling a meeting to play the studio’s game.
Similar legal action was taken by the studio last year after ABC had used the name Section 8 for an upcoming sci-fi drama. TimeGate won, with ABC agreeing to change the name.
Section 8 is due out for release on PC and Xbox 360 later this year.
