A little while ago, you may remember that there were some disputes between the makers of Guitar Hero 2, Red Octane, and peripherals manufacturers Ant Commandos. Red Octane filed a lawsuit against Ant Commandos claiming rights infringement on the Gibson controller. And Commandos stroke back and counter sued Octane claiming that the Gibson controller was using technology patented by them. Now, according to GameSpot, both sides have reached an agreement. No details regarding this agreement were revealed, but information as regarding the judge dismissing the case leaked. This means that Ant Commando guitars will continue to be sold and that Red Octane will not be bothered anymore. Everybody is happy, cash flowing.
