Lol

I like shooting games in general, and bought CAVE's releases on disc and Xbox Live. I can only hope that the director is prosecutedt to the full extent of the jam. It's not like CAVE could afford to lose money either, so what they did was extra shameful.

I'm very curious to know how the director's malpractice was discovered.

I always get confused when I hear about scandals where only one person was keeping track of money. There should always be several people who can monitor the money.

It's unfortunate this kind of stuff happens. Thankfully it was uncovered.

It's possible that company's payroll discovered it. Regardless, when you abuse your power, be prepared to face the consequences. Now, if we could could more success doing this to the American federal government.

It isn't the only malpractice CAVE has done. Getting out of the console market was a serious malpractice, and now it's nearly impossible to get a great Shmup.

Sounds a lot like McGraw-Hill bribing schools to buy extra copies of textbooks that they won't even use. (Well, it happened with my high school, at least.) It's utterly bizarre bribing, since the extra material will have to be stored somewhere or destroyed, both of which would be suspicious.
