Sony gets into a lot of trouble with the law. It's not that they necessarily get caught by the feds or cops or anything, but people tend to attack big companies, thinking they've got the money to spare to settle any sort of lawsuit. It's happened again, as SCEA was taken "to the cleaners" so to speak in an overtime lawsuit regarding artists working for them. SCEA was cited as improperly treating its artists by exempting overtime pay.Sony, of course, denies these wrongdoings but settled for $8.5 million and promises to reclassify some of its artists as nonexempt from overtime pay. We have to wonder, though, why are they pushing their artists so hard? Is E3 going to show a ton of games? The answer, naturally, is yes. There are a ton of games coming, many first party, so knowing the artists are working very hard (too hard, even) means we'll definitely have a huge flood of games soon. Sucks about the lawsuit, though.
