A tattoo artist has filed suit against THQ over the appearance of his work in UFC Undisputed 3. Elite Tattoo owner Chris Escobedo claims artist’s rights over Carlos Condit’s lion tattoo, which was recreated in-game without license. Polygon notes the case is not unique, as the appearance of tattoo artwork in unlicensed media has been siccessfully challenged in the past.

Thanks, PlayerAttack.

THQ has told Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter that it sold its Ultimate Fighting Championship franchise to Electronic Arts because it failed to break even on UFC Undisputed 3, which shipped 1.4 million units – 600,000 or so units short of the 2 million copies needed, reports Gamasutra. During EA’s E3 press event this week, UFC president Dana White took the stage to announce the transition of the UFC’s license to EA Sports, which will see the firm publishing multiple games, through a multi-year exclusivity deal. In the wake of the sale, THQ’s San Diego studio was shut down.

A couple of weeks ago it was a non-entity; now everyone’s buying, playing and talking about UFC Undisputed 3. What’s caused this strange outbreak of passion among the fickle consumer base?

A demo for UFC Undisputed 3 has landed on PSN and XBL. The demo features a matchup between current UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones and current UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva. In addition, the Pride Mode rivalry between champions Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Wanderlei Silva is included. The demo also offers mirror matches against another player or AI as the same fighter for the “ultimate test of skill.” UFC Undisputed 3 is currently scheduled for release on February 14 PS3 and Xbox 360.

THQ’s confirmed the demo for UFC Undisputed 3 will launch on Xbox Live next Tuesday. And that’s that: no word on fighters or the like that will feature in the taster. A PS3 version isn’t mentioned, although it’s assumable that will arrive at the same time.

Full game’s out on February 18 in Europe for PS3 and 360. Thanks, Kotaku.
