Aussie TV in general is a cess pit of rip offs.

MKR ripped off Masterchef.
That new shitty Ch9 family show rips Rafters off right down to the logo above the trees in the sky.
Rockwiz rips Spicks which as stated rips Buzzcocks.
Fat pricks losing weight rips off the other fat pricks losing weight show.
Then you have the format ripoffs. Like how RPM is so desperately trying to be Top Gear.

Playstation all stars battle royale being released this year:

About as blatant as a video game rip-off can get, but no doubt it'll make a ton of money.

I don't clas stat as a rip off. That's like saying BF is a rip off of COD.

Rockwiz rips Spicks which as stated rips Buzzcocks.

Rockwiz premièred a week or two before Spicks & Specks. And even if it did come after Spicks I wouldn't say it was a complete rip off.

Except Battlefield came out before CoD.

Not really at all. All video games take bits and pieces/ideas from other games, but this is about as blatant a rip off as you can get; concept-wise and visually.

There is a video somewhere on Youtube of the comparison between Avril Lavingines song girlffriend and the original.

Massive court settlement and apparently was a source saying that many pop artists do this.
