Legal Threat Halts Monopoly Development
Posted on 19 September 1998, 21:00 GMT
Parker Brothers, a division of Hasbro and the makers of Monopoly®, has threatened legal action against Kirk Meyer should he put a playable TI-86 version of that game on the Internet. Therefore, Kirk has stopped working on Monopoly® for obvious reasons. Ironically, Parker Brothers was impressed by his talents and have asked him to create a version of Monopoly for the color gameboy. Kirk is considering that offer and is also working on his pinball game Lalean for the TI-86.
