since you're here, I wrote a thing about how stupidly secret the games industry is and how the courts weren't prepared for apparently ten or so third-parties descending on them to redact their secrets from evidence:https://www.ign.com/articles/epic-vs-apple-shows-the-courts-were-not-prepared-for-the-games-industrys-obsessive-secrecy …

Good morning. The audio is somehow even worse today and it's very hard to understand what's going on, but it sounds like they're fighting over sealed documents again.

or something about whether the experts chosen for expert testimony are actually experts? I don't know. everyone except the judge is almost entirely unaudible.

Judge: (interrupting a lawyer) First of all, stop. My rule is that you give me a legal objection. I don't want to hear your arguments. god she is DONE and it is only the first hour of the third day

fun example of why it's critical to nail down terms. lawyer asking Lori Wright, VP of Xbox biz dev, what an Xbox is. she points out it has two definitions -- the console hardware, but also the overall Xbox ecosystem of games that goes across consoles.

Epic's lawyer building a narrative distinguishing what the Xbox can do as very, very different from an iPhone. Asks Lori Wright for an example of a game that could not possibly run on mobile; she offers Halo. "So roughly, Halo is 50x too large to run on iOS?" "Yes."

this apple lawyer did not come to play. currently grilling Wright about Xbox's policies as a closed system. "What about the Epic Games Store? Do you allow the EGS on Xbox?" "No." "Do you not think that's unfair?"

"And you don't think it's an antitrust violation?" "I'm not an antitrust expert."

definitions just came back! lawyer clarifying with her whether when she's referring to Xbox she's talking about the console or the ecosystem including PC. this matters a lot for both sides' arguments!

new docs just dropped, looks like the redacted stuff that was in dispute yesterday. fun line from Sweeney emailing Phil Rosenburg re: cross-play: "Many Fortnite players are kids, and their friendships are being torn apart by Sony's segregation of players on competing platforms"

"Would you consider Fortnite as a AAA game?" "There are varying definitions of what a AAA game is. I think Fortnite started as an independent game...but yes. There are varying standards but yes it's a AAA game."

"It's often believed it's easy just to move a game over to iOS. It's like asking Spielberg to go reshoot Jurassic Park." haha

ha. they just had to remove the two slideshow exhibits they introduced during Wright's testimony. presumably more stuff that should've been redacted! what a mess.

I'm tweeting the goofier stuff generally, but as far as more serious commentary goes: Epic's argument so far seems to be focused on how unfair Apple's practices are, while Apple is doing a lot of work to prove Epic and everyone it works with is a big ol hypocrite.

Another document coming in that hasn't been properly put together ahead of the trial. Judge: "We have about 150 binders in here and not a single copy."

"are you familiar with the term mobile phone?" "yes" "what is a mobile phone?" again, important questions for making sure definitions of relevant terms are straight, but hilarious to listen to

wow, Apple's lawyers still not playing. Calling Epic a dishonest business partner for sneaking in that extra payment method that kicked all this off “Let’s talk about honesty. You knew you were being dishonest, didn’t you? You knew you were acting without integrity?"
