fags

I want to fuck Noodle

>is rockstar in the right?
Anyone that shits on nu-music is in the right

Rockstar became everything they ever hated.

but the adult Noodle right?

no it's pretty retarded, this is pretty much free marketing for them
then again they'll probably just demand some extra money and then let them advertise their game for free on top

So wait, they DIDN'T get the rights to use GTA V footage?
No fucking shit they'd get slapped with a C&D.

GTA5 makes more in a year than Gorillaz made during their entire career. They can suck the R* dick and maybe then they will be allowed to use GTA LMAO.

the problem is there are tons of videos and web shows with gta footage. If you bought the game you should be able to do what you want with the contents short of copying the game and selling the copies.

It's most likely got a strike for not acknowledging the rights of rockstar by placing a "GTA is a registered trademark or Rockstar" or some bullshit.

Sure. I'm surprised no one considered that they had to pay.
Free marketing for one of the most successful titles in gaming, for one of the most well known IP's in gaming.

If they used GTAV without permission and intend it for the sake of profit, then yes. Never understood why people think that they would get away without asking for permission especially for something that is intended for profit.

> we can pay you in exposure!
Get a load of this idiot.

gorillaz are gay as fuck so good.

The thing here though is you could make that argument for let's players and Twitch streamers. They play games for profit.

Did they not ask beforehand

streamers play their game for profit every day, why don't they cease and desist them?

Fucking Rockstar

How is that relevant? Rockstar can do whatever the fuck they want with what they own.

Seems pretty ironic considering there’s Gorillaz music in GTAV

there's already GTAV music videos. I don't see how they can allow all these videos to stay up on youtube and then try to get the gorillaz to stop. I doubt rockstar can do anything if gorillaz refuse to take the video down

The put a Gorillaz song in their game, now they’re taking down Gorillaz putting the game in their song.
Classic Rockstar.

Nintendo does.
In japan.

cause its basically advertising

Gorillaz isn't new you fucking zoomer

>Rockstar needs to pay licensing fee to play their music in GTA
>Gorillaz/Their Label thinks they can use Rockstar footage without licensing
Good on Rockstar

that's not how it works though. you have to enforce your copyright, you can't pick and choose when it's convenient, at least when you're talking about similar contexts.

same shit with the gorillaz video
they'd definitely have a case if they went to course because rockstar silently allowing thousands of people to use their IP for profit could be seen as a precedent
of course it's a bit different in this case but they probably just want to settle this for free money

What, really? I thought this was a collaboration between them :/
I'm going to say no they aren't, but if that's true, what a lazy music video. Most of it was just boring footage of driving in the game.

How is it not relevant? Most let's players and streamers seek to profit which was the point of the user I replied to. Double standards.

Don't get me wrong, they fucked up by not asking and getting a licence. Like that shit was obviously going to get shot the fuck down.

her little feet could work MY machine if you know what I mean!

Modern Gorillaz could be called “numusic” desu, I mean look at Humanz. Fucking look at it.

That's completely different than it is someone to use the property in another property, or producing a product with the property in it with a intention of producing a profit out of the game's image and money.

Let's players and streamers only get away with it is because they're just playing the game as is without it being included in some creation or property. The only part that they can make profits out of it is in the form of donations and unrelated merch from the viewers

>you can't pick and choose when it's convenient
What the fuck do you mean? Of course they fucking can.
It simply means they give permission to do it to certain people but not others, that is within their rights.
Retard.
>Double standards.
They can have double standards.
