1UP has a feature covering the most critical legal battles to affect the industry, including Nintendo's old strong-arm tactics, the beginning of the third-party developer, Electronic Art's poor employee work conditions, and violent games being linked to violent behavior.
Most notable on the list is Atari's lost case to Activision paving the way for third-party developers to cash in on the home console scene.
