Scrabulous
03/06/2008:
The fight is on. Two brothers in Calcutta named Rajat and Jayant Agarwalla have developed a online game named Scrabulous. And now the companies, Hasbro and Mattel, that own the board game Scrabble are fighting to get Scrabulous shutdown. Scrabulous is a virtual knockoff of the Scrabble board game and this is not goning well with the companies. Hasbro and Mattel seem to be have been caught sleeping at the wheel. They had their chances to get their games online long time back, but they waited and now some smart enterprenues beat them to the punch. Now the two companies are negotiating with two brothers. Only time will tell how much the two will get, hope it worth their trouble.
