More and more game developers are voicing their displeasure with the Stop Online Piracy Act better known as SOPA. We’ve already heard from the likes of Epic Games, Riot Games and Red 5 Studios.
Well, this week Bungie has come out against SOPA and proclaimed that they, “All agree that SOPA sucks.” Well said gents. They added:
Bungie is opposed to any legislation that curtails free speech, stifles innovation and prevents the open sharing of information on the internet. SOPA fits that bill. If it passes, it will hurt our community, the gaming community at large and it could very well cripple the kind of games we love to create and play.
Next up is Frozenbyte, the makers of the critically acclaimed Trine series. They are responsible for that wonderful video above. I guess you could call it a “somewhat silent” protest.
