You may remember that last month, Take Two filed a suit against Jack Thompson. Basically, they were suing in regards to Thompson’s threat to sue to block sales of GTA IV and Manhunt 2. In traditional Thompson fashion, Wacky Jacky filed a countersuit charging that Take Two had violated the federal racketeering laws. In exchange for dropping this suit against Thompson, as well as the contempt charge stemming from the Bully case in Florida, Thompson has agreed to not sue or threaten suits that would block sale or distribution of any Take Two game, not to accuse Take-two or anyone who does business with them of wrongdoing for selling games, and to make any future contact with Take Two through their attorneys. It’s not a muzzle, but at least it might shut Wacky Jacky up for a while.

The employee shuffle continues at the new Take-Two this week. CEO Paul Eibeler got the axe just after the shareholders took over, now Chief Financial Officer Karl Winters is walking away. Regarding Winters departure, new T2 CEO Ben Feder said, “He was instrumental in assembling a highly competent financial team that will serve us well in the future. We appreciate Karl’s hard work and his continued support during the transition.” Winters, I understand not wanting to hang out for the conference call that is sure to lead to your departure, but have you seen what they give away when they fire people!?! Take the resume hit and get paid sucker.
