No 'shock and awe' for Sony

TOKYO, Japan (Reuters) -- Responding to criticism that it was trying to
take advantage of the Iraq war for commercial gain, Sony Corp said on
Wednesday it will not use the phrase "shock and awe" for PlayStation
videogames made by a subsidiary.
A U.S. unit of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc has withdrawn an
application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to register the
phrase for commercial use, a Sony spokeswoman said.
The application had been made last month shortly after U.S.-led forces
began an attack on Iraq with a strategy of heavy aerial bombardment
termed "shock and awe."
"We have withdrawn the application which was made on March 21," the Sony
spokeswoman said.
While there had been no specific plans to use the phrase for a title of
PlayStation software, the electronic giant now felt the application was
inappropriate, she said.
