Hot Coffee Lawsuit Over Published by wes213 on Wednesday, September 02, 2009

This has got to be the most unreal bag of crap i have ever seen, you might recall way back in the day when the world was playing GTA: San Andreas that the puritans found out about the hot coffee mod and went mad with the idea there kids could see this in a game and not on TV like God intended and now that no one cares its finally over.
 EDGE reports: Take-Two has settled the class action lawsuit brought against the publisher by investors over the infamous 'Hot Coffee' modification contained in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The Hot Coffee controversy centered on the discovery of a sex minigame in GTA: San Andreas, which was disabled but left within the game's code. The Hot Coffee modification enabled users to access the minigame in the PC version of the title, and console hacking tools enabled the minigame to be played in the console versions.
San Andreas was subsequently re-rated as Adults Only and pulled from some retailers’ shelves. An updated version of the title with the minigame removed was later released, but investors alleged that their stakes in Take-Two had been damaged by the scandal.
Take-Two will pay $20.1 million to settle the lawsuit, with $15.2 million covered by the company’s insurance carriers. The publisher said that it fully accrued for its portion of the settlement costs over several quarters ended April 30, 2009.
"We are pleased to have reached this settlement, which represents another important step forward for the company," said Take-Two chairman Strauss Zelnick.
