In this thread we post gaming news which is mildly interesting but not very important...

Here's a start: Lawsuits: THQ Sues Activision Over Baja Box Art Rip

XD No matter how you look at it, that's more than just a coincidence lol.

I would imagine that record would be easily broken by visiting an elementary school in Japan...
