Literally, basically for any game based on a Warner Bros. movie; the game needs to have a 70% rating or higher on gamerankings.com or esle the company will have to pay a fee. I really like this, it will hopefully make more movie licensed games better.
Atari is very sneaky, reviews of Enter the Matrix were not released until much later after the game was on shelves. Basically this cause people to purchase the game blindly (I am one of them) just because of the license itself.

"[Enter the Matrix] sold $250 million worldwide," he told the Reporter, "That's what a big major motion picture makes. And Warner Bros. would penalize us because we didn't achieve 70 percent? Are they joking?"</font>
