You can sensationalize this any way you like, but this is how it is done in every company with a competent legal team. They have every right to challenge anything that might dilute their trademarks. Cases like this aren't always as simple as you would like to believe. Even things such as jurisdiction would have an…

The point is that Bethesda has everything to gain by bringing up this lawsuit, and everything to lose by not bringing it up. From a business law perspective, they would be stupid to not bring this forward.

Trademarks are lost all the time. Bayer lost the rights to "Aspirin". Duncan lost the rights to "Yo-Yo". Kerosene, Escalator, Dry Ice, and Cellophane are all trademarks that were revoked due to common usage.

Well, many do claim that Jesus was black.

Not really anyone to blame here. The way the legal system works, Bethesda is obligated to challenge Mojang to protect their IPs. If Bethesda does not challenge every potential copyright/trademark infraction, even if Bethesda already knows that they would not win, they risk losing the copyright/trademarks that they…

We're talking Mexico here. Guy probably picked it up at the Wal-Mart

hmm, what happens if we throw them in a landfill? Would they just consume everything?

Sounds fine to me. Gamestop has always been just a really clean pawn shop. Aren't they also planning on buying/selling Apple products (iPods, iPhones, iPads)? That just solidifies their standing in that category.

We're definitely sitting in fuzzy territory. This is Pachinko grade gambling happening here.

I used to keep my Halo 3 Legendary Edition Spartan Helmet displayed in my china cabinet. My parents came over and replaced it with actual china, so now it's in my room ._.

I feel sorry for the kid who inhales a methane balloon if any of the suggestions in the comments ever came true..

This is starting to sound like a razor blade commercial

They're on a bimonthly schedule, but this one got delayed by like 3 weeks. Yes, it's been harsh (and yes, the story sort of falls out of Marvel continuity, as if that really mattered to begin with), but it's still an amazing series on its own.

I always feel like I need to jump into these threads and announce that the new Avengers: Children's Crusade is out. It's so fantastic, I can't wait til I get home to read it.

Is it just me, or do games in general feel a lot... slower these days. I just really want her to move like 50% faster. It just seems like there's a lack of urgency....

Makes you wonder why everyone doesn't do this.

Just buy a box of baby wipes. They're useful for EVERYTHING. For 88 cents a box, they clean everything from my counters to my whiteboards.

It's always rough when you find out that pretty girl you married turns out to be a dude. Some people make the best of it, but others have trouble adapting.

Peter already has a clone named Jessica Drew. She is currently dating the Human Torch I think. Yes, it's awkwardly hillarious.

I'm just saying that people here are focusing on the silliest things. It's like getting the wrong meal at Olive Garden, and complaining that the breadsticks are cold.
