    Trademark only carries weight if they are in the same industry and there is a reasonable likelyhood of confusion that it’s official. They do not get a blank check on the phrase or initials GTA.

    As there is no website at all, no confusion can be made. If there is a satirical site put up (i.e. falloutfirst.com) there again is no likelyhood of confusing it for the official site.

    T2 can pound sand.

      You must be unaware that the courts don’t generally agree with your stance when it comes to people sitting on domains for corpos. T2 will likely get this domain once it goes before a judge.

      I agree they should pint sand. But we know who ever has the gold makes the rules here.
