Take-Two seeking control of GTAV.com domain name
Fusible reports that Take-Two has filed a complaint with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in a bid to take control of GTAV.com.
The domain name currently redirects users to the official Grand Theft Auto V website, although as recently as February 2013 it took users to a blog about the game.
This year alone, Take-Two has reportedly filed more than two dozen disputes over fake beta websites like gta5betacode.com, with the WIPO ruling in the publisher's favour on each occasion.
In July, Rockstar released a new GTA 5 gameplay trailer featuring almost five minutes of fresh footage.
Rockstar has confirmed a US and European GTA 5 release date of September 17 on Xbox 360 and PS3. The game will launch in Japan on October 10.

ShadowBoltDashieCenScared_of_WatervarScared_of_Water If the guy is selling it then why not buy it, it will be a lot easier.
t will be loads of $$$$
not like they can't afford it
Why waste money when you can just ask the government to hand it to them?
I don't think it would be exactly handed over, maybe if they win a claim against it, then the domain would be handed to them.
They will have to file a complaints and go through a lot of other legal things to actually get the domain, there is also the change that Take Two will fail and not get the domain

McCutchenNov I would make that such a dirty website just for people looking for GTA 5
That's a genius idea.
It would be pretty harsh for the developers..

PurityRaheemSterling_31 If it is listed for sale than i'm sure Rockstar will be able to pay for it
Yea but the seller might raise the price if they know Rockstar is buying
Yeah but they are also getting views from people looking for GTA V so they might keep it for that reason.
