Zynga is pleased that the Court has reviewed the evidence and
found good cause to issue an injunction order requiring Vostu and Google Orkut
to cease distribution of four Vostu games - MegaCity, Cafe Mania, Pet Mania and
Vostu Poker - or be subject to fine by the Court.""The Courts action reflects
the seriousness of this matter and the irreparable harm Zynga is suffering due
to NBA Live Coins Vostus copying. It also takes into account the need to protect Brazilian
consumers from acts
infringement and unfair competition."In a statement issued by Vostu, a
representative from the company said that it plans to appeal the ruling."Vostu
will vigorously appeal this ruling, which we firmly believe has no merit," it
said. "This is a desperate and misguided legal tactic by Zynga, a foreign
company with no real Brazilian roots -- a company that has failed to secure a
foothold in the Nostalrius buy gold local marketplace and failed to win consumers who have clearly
shown they prefer the superior games
by Vostus Brazilian team."We are confident the Court of Appeals will reverse
the injunction, when presented with Vostu's position and its full
story."[UPDATE: A California federal judge has barred Zynga from enforcing the
Brazilian court injunction, pending further hearings.][Every week, Gamasutra
