It doesn't give you the right to basically rip them off.
it wasn't a rip off - i was so close to even open sourcing the whole thing, the reason why i did not is because it uses a common library which i own to cross-build on multiple platforms. in fact, we even have a linux version, i just never booted a VM with linux during this 36 hour period, otherwise, it would be FIVE platforms. we did this as a dedication to the game, not to profit from it we were going to release it for free, no adverts, no catches, 100% free, as in beer. it is a tribute because SCEE never seems to license content outside of their own hardware, as we have seen in the past - 10 years ago we chased down who owned it, with no avail. it has gotten complex. since then, the only versions have been for the PSP or PS3. nice to see them locking the IP to their own platforms, rather than even being open about discussing other platforms (which technically compete with their own). who's best interest do they have?
some commenters here simply blurt out comments without thinking at times, and it has made slashdot degrade a lot over the last 10 years - it is a sad pity actually.
