later, Trent and Xavier run into a problem with their design and consult with a friend, Brad, who is
an expert in creating computer source codes. After the software is completed but before Hallowed
is marketed a video game called Halo 2 is released for both the Xbox and the PlayStation 3 systems
Halo 2 uses source codes similar to those of Hallowed and imitates Hallowed's overall look and
feel, although not all the features are alike. Using the information presented in the chapter, answer
the following questions
Would the name Hallowed receive protection as a trademark or as trade dress?
2. If Trent and Xavier had obtained a business process patent on Hallowed, would the release of Halo?
infringe on their patent? Why or why not?
3. Based only on the facts presented above, could Trent and Xavier sue the makers of Halo 2 for
copyright infringement? Why or why not?
4. Suppose that Trent and Xavier discover that Brad took the idea of Hallowed and sold it to the con
pany that produced Halo 2. Which type of intellectual property issue does this raise?
