And to point out the tyranid/zerg comparison with pictures...
But, yah.

Oh my bad, ancient batman is a rip off of Zorro. Modern batman is a rip off of all former bad ass law enforcers. My bad. lolzSovvolf said:
I adore what I am going to say and I am no reason ripping on it but..
Dead Space and Alien(s).
It's basically a complete ripoff, including the. "THERE COMING OUT OF THE VENTS!!!!!" (which I'm sure was a homeage...)

DUNGEONS and M.U.D. TV.
Made by Realmforge Studios. A studio whose only two titles are blatant ripoffs of older games, but which have a different gameplay compared to the norm.
(Dungeon Keeper and MAD TV, respectively).
So, pretty much the Gameloft of Steam.

In my eyes they were mostly ripped from the alien franchise with a bit of tyranid thrown in. They look similar, evolve in the same way (stealing genetic information), the cocoons look the same, they all grow from a single organism (chest burster / larvae), some zerg types have acid blood, and the human military R&D departments are scrambling to research them for war purposes in both. Plus, there are many quotes from aliens in SC such as "how do I get out of this chickenshit outfit", "In the pipe, five by five" and infested terrans saying "killlll meeeee".MrDeckard said:
Dead Space was intentionally based on the 'mood' of Aliens. EA admitted to that before the first game came out.Sarah Kerrigan said:
When your that blunt about it, I'd call it 'inspired by,' not ripped off.
on iphone, u can get fruit ninja. on andriod you can get a very laggy game called fruit slash. it looks the exact same and plays the exact same with the exact same modes except shit
Actually... No, the modern Batman is arguably a rip off of Rorschach from the Watchmen. Its arguable as TDKR and Watchmen came out around the same year and Watchmen accidentally kicked off the whole darker and edgier hero wave of the late 80's to 90's where Batman also became more darker and edgier. Its sort of ironic though given that Rorschach was a Batman expy (along with another character from the D.C universe Alan Moore wasn't aloud to kill off).Darkauthor81 said:
Again, its arguable. He's certainly not a rip off of all bad ass law enforcers. I could point to a good few comic heroes that are, just not Batman.
please note the early TyranidsAccursedTheory said:

they look very different from the zerg, now note the second edition
http://album.warpshadow.com/v/ShadowsInTheWarp/Tyranid-Archive/Warhammer-40K/2ndEdNids/
closer but still only passing similarities, now lets see the 3rd edition
http://album.warpshadow.com/v/ShadowsInTheWarp/Tyranid-Archive/Warhammer-40K/3rdEdNids/
much closer but still not bad. When was this codex released? 2001? Yeah... what about the fourth edition released in 2005?

Yeah... your argument is starting to fall apart a bit...
For the OP: anything by Asylum films
So, I was reading a short story called "Call Me Joe" for my Science Fiction Literature class. It was about a paraplegic guy who used a machine to telepathically control/live through a giant blue alien on Jupiter, an- Wait a minute...

For reals, how did he (Cameron, "Call Me Joe" was written over fifty years ago) think no one would would notice that this:
was pretty much the same story as Avatar?

I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong.Canid117 said:
And I'M NOT! Mwahahahaha (Okay, yah).
Though I'd still argue that the their story concepts are still remarkably similar.
Well, I would continue to argue it. Except for the sudden release of random tyranid/zerg porn google just dumped on me.
...I don't want to talk about either right now...

The similarities are there, and perhaps the scenario was lifted from that movie.D0WNT0WN said:
But, as stated, the intention was to create the atmosphere of Alien. Any similarities to Event horizon may have been intentional or not. it is beyond my knowledge.
Never mind I got one.D0WNT0WN said:
The movie Pandorium is basically a rip off of Dead Space if anyone has seen it >_>
Pandorium is about one guy going crazy in space and declaring himself God.Sarah Kerrigan said:
While events of the movies may be similar, the intent is not.
Though, yes, this similarity occurred to me too when I was watching the movie.
I cannot remember the name of the game: It stole art from Warcraft 3 and Neverwinter Nights and was a really crappy RTS with half a dozen ads on every screen. It was such a blantant rip that I emailed the legal departments of Blizzard and Bioware. After that I never heard about the game ever again
Yes, Starship Troopers the book. Although Starcraft is the only one said to be influenced, no mention of warhammer. Sad really, warhammer is put in a bubble. Warhammer rips it off as much as Starcraft does but then Starcraft is also said to rip off warhammer.Lord_Beric said:
