Blizzard Withdraw World of Warcraft Online Guide Suit

World of Warcraft is a game that revolutionized online gaming. The role-playing game from Blizzard brought an innovating experience to millions of online players worldwide. World of Warcraft is set in the world of the groundbreaking game Warcraft, and enables the user to go online and enter a vast cyber world in order to interact with other online players. The game has won millions of fans throughout the world, and one of those fans decided to write a guide for the game.

The homemade guide was not received with standing ovations over at Blizzard and the gaming giant called for its removal from the net. Now news come that Blizzard has agreed to settle a lawsuit with Brian Kopp, the author of the 300-page guide. Apparently, Kopp`s guide did not include any copyrighted material and was not affiliated with Blizzard in any way.

Kopp is selling his guide online for about $15 and more than 600 people have already purchased it. The online guide explains how to accumulate more points in the game and enhances the gaming experience. "It`s good income for just playing a game," said Kopp, 24, who plays video games for five or six hours daily.
