WhoIs Domain Information

Post by Gambid »

We did some research on the domain name for the official Mortal Kombat VS. DC Universe website - Worldscollide.Com, and some interesting information came out, information that we don't really know how to interpret:

Registrant:
Holland & Hart
555 17th Street Suite 3200
Denver, CO 80202
US

Domain Name: WORLDSCOLLIDE.COM

Administrative Contact, Technical Contact, Zone Contact:
Holland & Hart
Holland & Hart
555 17th Street Suite 3200
Denver, CO 80202
US
(303)669-3757

Domain created on 20-Jun-2002
Domain expires on 21-Jun-2010
Last updated on 20-Feb-2008


What is really interesting is that Holland & Hart is a law firm. And also that the domain name record exists since 20-Jun-2002.

The reason for this is currently unexplained. Probably Holland & Hart is the previous owner of the domain and the record hasn't been updated by Midway on purpose.

We will find out more very soon. So keep close.

Well, it's a little late considering the site now resolves to Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe content, but the DNS information of the site is as follows (and was so last night as well):

host02.midwaygamesips.m.subnet.rcn.com

Furthermore, the IP is 208.58.149.2 , which is in the same netblock as midway.com's 208.58.149.3.

It's actually likely that Midway hired the law firm to obtain the domain.
