We all know about the whole Kevin Butler (Sony's Spokesperson) in a Bridgestone and Nintendo commercial.
Well now, Sony is sueing Bridgestone and Wildcat Creek... in a nutshell, the wonderful company that has had a terrible couple of years is sueing theyre own spokes person because of their competition Nintendo.

Nintendo = 1
Sony = 0

Well Jerry did breach his contract which I am assuming is a non competition contract (you can't advertise for competitors).

Kevin Butler is awesome.
On a side note This is kinda silly. There is no gain for Sony, I mean, how could there be?

Damn Nature! You scary! Lol

But in terms to this, Sony just wants people to play there console. I think it's stupid though just because he did the commercial for it. What's next, are they gonna sue us for playing our Wii U's and Xbox 360s!

Nice to see Sony is focusing on the real problems. But seriously, unless they signed a contract with him, there's no reason to sue.

Kevin Butler was playing Mario Kart Wii.

If you look closely, he wasn't even playing: he was just watching and cheering his co workers on.
