Original thread at GAF (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=349591)

Probotector was one of the first games I ever played on the NES many many years ago and GAF have got together and done a remake of the game within LBP. From the video it actually looks amazingly faithful! Pretty amazing what can be done in LBP.

THis from LBP?

Thought Sony were pulling everything remotely related to anything remotely related to the brother in law of anything remotely related to a copyright infringement?

Won't see light of day in the public domain then.

Weirdly enough it made the Official PlayStation Blog (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/03/01/playstation-around-the-web-what-we-read-37/) so maybe not. The levels are already up:

They relaxed things somewhat after Christmas but it's not quite as headline grabbing for word to get around.

Well I would say with Konami being quite close to Sony Contra would be treated somewhat more leniently than Halo. ;)
