I want to write sheet music for songs from games. A flaw Isee in the current offerings is that it is badly notated.
How do you know that your notation is any better than what's out there?

My question is: am I allowed to charge people for this music, or would I get sued? Please back up your replies with some actual literature, and thank you for your support!
From what I understand, all or most of this stuff is copyrighted. Have you obtained the copyrights to this music? If not, you are not allowed to reproduce and sell it, whether it's a CD or sheet music. It's probably even risky to sell it on the black market - you can't trust anybody.
