I just want to point out something that has not been touched on.
Worlds, Inc. is a firm that exists only to sue.
They took out a vaguely worded "patent" (which should properly have been thrown out on the basis of just how vaguely worded it is), somehow got it approved, that basically says "we patent anything that allows a bunch of people to play the same game over the internet together"). Once the patent was approved, without ever writing a single line of code, or creating a game themselves, they proceeded to sue virtually every MMORPG that looked as if it was making a profit, being fully aware that most firms would pay them to go away.
And most firms pay them to go away. This is how the dispute with NCSoft over CoH was "settled".
I wish I could divulge more about the "legal liabilities" but I can't. They will, however, die with the game. Let's concentrate on a revival.
