Harry Potter rip off gets a name change

GameSetWatch reported a story about Barry Hatter and the Sorcerer’s Broomstick, a PAL region Playstation 2 game that closely resembles another famous wizard. Apparently Metro 3D had a change of heart (or a possible lawsuit) and they changed the name of the game to Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing. On the plus side less kids will end up with Barry Hatter as a gift when an adult is searching for the latest Harry Potter game.

:lol

I saw a GTA ripoff called Manhattan Chase or something in a store a while ago, copied the boxart perfectly, font and everything
