So Konami is putting the studio that released Downpour under review? I think they have the wrong idea. The studio they should be looking at is Hijinx. They managed to screw up the Silent Hill HD collection so bad that they've had to patch it twice and even then it's still not what it could be. In that case though Konami wasn't much help for giving them beta source code and actually thinking the initial version was okay to ship.

While the whole "Worst Company in America" was tongue in cheek, there is a reason EA was voted the worst. I'm not surprised they lost their lawsuit, but sadly most of the money awarded will go to the ambulance chasing, frivolous filing lawyers. And us gamers get a mere pittance. Sigh. I suppose what all that corporate speak means is that Konami is seriously considering shuttering down Vatra. And after merely playing the demo for Rush 'n Attack, I was seriously underwhelmed for sure. Much as I don't want it to be true, I'm sure Ubisoft will leave out some key sequences for AC 3 that will be DLC only. Curse you and your season pass! But what the hell am I complaining for? I'm still going to pick up the game day one and will hoard all the DLC.

So instead of being completely ripped off, buys of Madden for the past 7 years are being mostly ripped off. That should help them. Right?
