uninvitedguest, 4 dni temu do games w Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos

You’ve said something with such absolute certainty that is not making sense to me.

Now I’m not versed in Japanese tax law, but Japan does follow International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). I’m also not versed in the capitalization of video game development expenses.

A business is going to write down their asset based on their ability to generate future revenue from it. With Concord dead on arrival, it would be fair to say that they would write down everything related to the individual game development. If they left any asset on the books it would be related to the IP/trademarks/copyrights/etc (maybe some transferrable technology if they are getting really specific).

I’m not able to make the connection between issuing takedowns on community servers/videos and the accounting write off of an impaired asset. Issuing takedowns seems more in line with IP protection.

I can't speak for the USA, but typically in Canada (Ontario) people would not want to return to the employer but force a greater settlement.

Also, in Ontario, an employer that is found to be union busting would result in automatic certification of the union - no vote needed.

Probably because the third in the series is pretty widely panned.
