We bet Rockstar Games didn’t see this coming.
Beloved-but-deceased TV psychic Miss Cleo lives on in videogame form, at least according to a lawsuit filed this week by Psychic Readers Network, which is not at all happy about the alleged resurrection.
According to the lawsuit, which was filed against Takes-Two Interactive Software and Rockstar Games in federal court in Florida on Wednesday, “Grand Theft Auto: Vice City” contains a character that’s too similar to Miss Cleo for comfort.
The suit takes issue with the character Auntie Poulet, which according to the lawsuit infringes on the Psychic Readers Network’s copyright on Mis Cleo, “a widely known television informercial psychic, who PRN spent in excess of $100 million promoting.”
