This is funny how people can sue for anything these days.. a pretty good one thou..


Rockstar Games are no strangers to legal action, but it doesn’t come stranger than this. An American model, Michael Washington (known as “Shagg”) is suing the publisher – as well as parent company Take Two Interactive – because they based Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on his life.

It seems that Shagg is asking for $250 million – a quarter of the game’s profits – because the lead character in the game – CJ – bears more than a passing resemblance to his own troubled youth. He’s claiming fraud, misappropriation of likeness and copyright infringement, by the way.
