I hope Blizzard sues them till it hurts.
"World of" has been copy righted by them I believe.
if you read their game small print in the copy right section they say that the use of "world of" is under copy right for use by Blizzard for a number of up comming games they have in the planning stages.

Wow, way to be retarded, Blizzard.

How the hell can you copyright "World of"? They can copyright "World of Warcraft," but "World of X" is insane. I mean, World of are just perfectly normal words that could apply to a zillion other things. And is anyone really going to think that World of Tomb Raider or World of Warhammer or whatever is a Blizzard product just because they made World of Warcraft? I really don't think so.

Copyrighting has gone out of hand.
