    Hey I'm also a gamer fan and I visit the GameSpot website everyday. Here's one of today news, thought it may be interesting for some people here.

    Some 15 unique URLs were registered on July 7, and all of them are related to the Batman lexicon. I don't know, some of these domains sure looks odd. May be an hint about future Batman products/games.

    Some examples?

    batman as hes of gotham.com
    stop mayor sharp.com
    wheres bruce wayne.com

    Are they going to far? For a complete list, please take a look at the original story.

    They might not be worth anything at the moment but once a product takes shape around these names... the brand value would be huge. The company is just safe-guarding their future interests by buying such related names! :)

    Even old movie site domains still get traffic... but you're right in that it won't be quite as valuable as when the movie/blockbuster came out... I wonder if any of the domains actually expire out over time... ?
