EA is suing the company Zynga for copying the idea and concept behind SimCity Social (or the Sims in general)

I mean look at this stuff. Even the soundtrack almost sounds exactly the same.
also, this isn't the first time Zynga has copied someone's idea.
I really, really, REALLY hate both companies, but i'll have to side with EA on this one. Zynga are huge evil douchebags who has stolen so many games before. I remember a link of every Zynga game and their original, if i find it i'll link it here (includes games like Farmville and Yoville)
The only thing is that since EA is in the stuffter, this lawsuit (depending how much this is going for i dont loving know stuff about finances the economy or whatever) might pull them back up.
Tonkka:
If Zygna didn't see this coming they are probably the stupidest company of all time. Their CEO is called Markus Pincus for christ sake.
Mr.jacksaunt:
I hate all companies in the OP
Wehrmacht:
honestly, forget zynga
all they do is copy popular flash games / other games from companies and slap them on the ios / facebook
they are sloppy and i hope they lose
Darkness ZXW:
