Did you feel burned by Hot Coffee?

It appears as though Take Two Interactive is ready to offer up some free cash for your 'blisters' and 'blindness'. A preliminary settlement of $35 will be offered to those that have proof of purchase in addition to stating that you or someone you loved was damaged by the hot coffee mod.

"The preliminary deal, if accepted by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, would end the suits against Take-Two and subsidiary Rockstar Games without any admission of liability or wrongdoing by the two companies, Take-Two said in a statement.

The lawsuits were filed over a controversial sex mini-game on “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” (GTA), discovered in 2005. A software modification that came to be know as the Hot Coffee mod unlocked the adult content, which otherwise could not be accessed."

As most of you know, the "Hot Coffee Mod" allow gamers to see explicit sex acts between the main character, CJ, and his "girlfriends" (hoes?). Did you lose sleep over this? Well now it looks like you can cash in too.
