This is a story that is better left in the hands of the people who are
living it. World Wrestling Entertainment has shut down Game Asylum's You Tube
account, and the video gamer is none too happy about it.
In a rant entitled FUCK YOU, WWE!, the angry webmaster
writes the following:
Apologies for the harsh language there, but you may (or may
not) have noticed that Games Asylum’s YouTube page has been permanently
disabled.
Occasionally we’d get the odd e-mail from EA and other publishers
via YouTube claiming copyright on videos that we uploaded, but they didn’t mind
us uploading them. And why would they? We’re giving their games publicity for
free. Heck, the press are always sending us links to videogame trailers so that
we can potentially feature them on this site.
But earlier this week a year old video of the WWE Vs Smackdown
trailer was removed, because the WWE claimed full ownership and copyright
violation. Today I received a message stating that the Game Asylum account has
been disabled, thus losing everything that was uploaded - over 300 videos,
including some personally taken in Tokyo.
Last time I checked the channel had over 3 million video views.
Obviously YouTube aren’t bothered about the loss.
