Sony and Square Enix Facing Final Fantasy XIII Class Action Lawsuit

 - June 7th, 2010
Final Fantasy XIII ended up being not all it could be – but that’s no reason to sue Sony and the game’s developers, Square Enix. Apparently a better reason is the claim that the game has caused PS3s to become inoperable – effectively bricking them. I can’t say I’ve personally heard of a single instance of that happening, but Daniel Wolf of San Diego believes otherwise. ... [»]
