    Bold move, I'd be very surprised if they actually did that.

    Irreparable harm; it’s part of the injunctive relief analysis

    Well its something you HAVE to plead, since they’re suing for injunctive relief, not cash money.

    Aye. Monetary loss is never an accepted reason for “irreparable harm”, but loss of face/reputation could be...

    Until Apple switched CPU's again back to their A series, they were using Intel CPU's, and some of the higher end models had pretty good ATI cards in them, so not surprised if some people gamed on them.

    Emotions don't mean shit in a court of law. This will be a judge trial.

    Are you telling me Tim Sweeney lied about something? That doesn't seem right.

    Judge issued a temporary restraining to block Apple from pulling Unreal Engine and the dev tools, Fortnite still banned though

    Seems reasonable. Epic is still punished but like a ton of other developers are going to get screwed because Epic is doing crazy risky things. Wonder if that includes the Epic Games store on Mac.

    Apple could very well keep Fortnite off its store for at least another year. In an email sent to Epic, which it has shared in preliminary court documents, Apple writes "... please note that we will deny your reapplication to the Apple Developer Program for at least a year considering the nature of your acts."

    Apple had previously stated that it would allow Fortnite back if Epic dropped its lawsuit and removed the new payment system it introduced that led to Fortnite being taken off the Apple store in the first place, but it seems it has lost what little patience it may have had. No doubt this decision has been spurred by Epic's rather hostile attitude towards Apple, even using one of Apple's old commercials to parody and mock it.

    The ban is already drastically affecting Fortnite. With iOS users unable to enjoy the latest content, the iOS playerbase has dropped significantly. If the ban persists until 2021, many more players could decide to simply drop the game altogether.

    Are there really that many kids playing that game on an iPhone of all things? Seems like an all-around terrible way to play that game given the structure-mashing gameplay on PC I've seen.
