In 2011, the original creator of the hit football simulation series, Madden, Robert Antonick, sued the publisher Electronic Arts. While EA holds rights to the Madden franchise, they supposedly had been using the same core coding for the entries in the series between 1990 and 1996 after Antonick had left the company without getting his permission to use his programming. The court ended up ruling the case in Antonick's favor, landing him $11 million.
So what's he gonna do with the money? Sue 'em again, of course! Antonick will now be filing a second lawsuit against EA, this time for the Madden games up to now since 1996. It'll be interesting to see how this one plays out.
