Take-Two In the Legal Octagon

T2 is being sued by Zuffa, the company behind the Ultimate Fighting Championships, for allegedly violating their distribution agreement and cybersquatting at www.ufcvideogame.com. Zuffa claims Take-Two has "committed acts intended or designed to disrupt and interfere, and have actually interfered, with [Zuffa's] present and prospective economic advantage and opportunities." T2 had rights to distrubte UFC games until 2005, including a grace period of 180 days for final sale of remaining inventory. T2 did not comply, selling 26,000 more copies of UFC: Sudden Impact after the grace period ended. UFC distribution rights are now held by THQ.

Zuffa's Got Tank Abbott, Who Does T2 Have?
