I agree, a generic gaming TLD would make more sense than specific ones for each game. Maybe registrations would be disabled on a theoretical .games TLD and you'd instead have second level registrations like (something).gta.games. Just as an example.

You should enable Undo Sending in Gmail, very useful.

Anyway, I'd have to say I very much disagree with this proposal. For
starters, random people running TLDs like that is asking for trademark
lawsuits. Secondly, I really don't see any need for an entire TLD for
most games. Something massive like an MMO* that takes place in modern
times maybe, but even then I don't see there being enough content
(websites) for an entire TLD to be necessary. Maybe something like
Nationstates where the entire game is about making countries, but I
don't think even they have enough users to make a TLD worthwhile.

Maybe do something like a .games, but a game-specific TLD I am
probably just going to vote no one.
