So Kotaku ran an article the other day about H.A.V.E. Online, a Korean game still under development. The reason this is worthy of some mention here is the fact that some people feel it seems rather a lot like TF2. Or rather like a rip-off of it. A blatant one. Except with action figures and anime dolls.

I dunno. The similarities are undeniable. But obviously some of those similarities are going to exist: there’s only really one way to carry a minigun, which exist in many games, and a sniper is going to see pretty much the same thing when looking at them through a scope, no matter what game you’re playing.. Whatever. Check the link, watch the video, and judge for yourself.

I will spare you my own opinions, lest we delve into some deep mire of discussion on intellectual property from which there is, I guarantee, no return.  But what I will say is this: I am glad to know that I am not the only person out there who thought that TF2 could use a little more… well… boobies. I mean, really.
