As far as I know gametrailers own them selves.

Lol. Obviously you don't read enough hard-boiled '40s pulp detective fiction.

I'm not familiar with Gorgol Bordello, but weird Russian rock does sound intriguing. I will check it out

If you notice the URL 'gamtrailers.com' redirects you to IGN with a PHP get variable at the end. 
"http://www.ign.com/?_cmpid=ign469" 
 
I'm guessing that's so IGN can figure out which of their dubious URL purchases get hit more and which ones aren't worth renewing.

gamtrailers.com is registered to a company in the Cayman Islands called Name Administration Inc. ign.com is registered to Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation's Intellectual Property Department.
 
It doesn't belong to IGN. It was created by some typosquatting asshole who figures he's being clever by redirecting people to the site of one of GameTrailers' competitors and possibly trick people into thinking IGN was responsible for such a dick move. And he's obviously succeeded.

@tunaburn: Typosquatters don't really have legitimate reasons for what they do. They do it to take advantage of people who mistype or just don't know the URL for a site.
