Yes. I think if you were to try using that or selling it Sony will be after you for a lawsuit as "Playstation" is a trade mark.

I don't think sony cares. Playstation2. com, .net and.org are all owned by different people.

It still doesn't make it legal. Sony own .com anyway.

i don't think there trademark applies for a .ws domain names since .ws stands for western samoa which is a different country. Wouldn't they need to get it trademarked there?

Well it has happened in the past where multinational corporations enter another country and have successfuly sued others using their name, there are such things as international copyrights/trademarks....

Sony could probably just file a complaint with ICANN and get the domain revoked... If they wanted.

When you try to register some .ws domain names it doesn't let you. It says "this domain name is trademarked and can not be registered". Why did they let me get this one?? If Sony wanted it, they would have taken it. I am sure they knew that someone else would take it if they didn't. I just registered it a few days ago so they had a couple years to get it. I think that as long as theres not a website there that is hurting there company that they won't mind. If someone makes a good playstation 2 site, its just free advertising for them.
