Edge Games "Completely Certain" of Legal Victory

"Since when did EA become the good guys?"
This quote makes me rage so fucking hard. It really shows these idiots' ignorance.
It's not about who the "good guys" are. It's about who's right. We don't root for Luke Skywalker because he's Luke Skywalker. We root for Luke Skywalker because he's right.
And if the audience starts rooting for Hitler over you, that must tell you how completely fucking wrong your side is.
I wish there was a strong enough word to describe my feelings. Hatred and loathing don't do it justice.

Breaking news! EdgeGames are also sueing the creators of the upcoming Edge of Twilight game by saying that they had a game called Of Twilight in development for a year now, though there is no sign of it being seen before.
In other news, EA has finally announced their true plan for handling this situation. The public relations division said the following: "Screw Tim Langdell's insanity, we've got money!"

I'm not sure if it's still the case, but when Edge "announced" their game called Mirrors, the logo was set up like thisad4m101 said:
I believe this is why Edge feels they can go against EA and DICE.
Well, I'll give them this: I certainly am amazed. Perhaps not in the way they want me to be, but I really am amazed at the lengths Langdell will go to for free money. I'll be even more amazed if the US Court lets him get away with it.Altheus_Necron said:I'm not sure if it's still the case, but when Edge "announced" their game called Mirrors, the logo was set up like this

Anyone interested in a detailed (if strongly anti-Langdell) look at the history of Edge Games should check out ChaosEdge:

There's a lot to sift through but it's very informative.

For a slightly more anti-Langdell view, Here's EA's filing of suit [http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=92051465&pty=CAN&eno=16], including all those juicy accusations of fraud committed by Langdell in order to perpetuate trademarks for products which may not, in fact, have existed.Andy Chalk said:
You know. I'm tempted to make a website for a new game that I have no intention of makeing just so I can copyright the name and have Tim come after me as well to change the name. I think I shall name the game...
The Edge or Edginess: Case of Edgy the Edged Edging
While I'm at it I should go and call my company THE so now no one can use that word in anything ever again.

So let me get this straight - there's a game company which feels obligated to sue people simply because their games have the word "edge" in their titles?
Whoever thinks the legal system is intended to be used that way needs their civil rights removed. With a ball-peen hammer.

Can I trademark "The" Games, and file a lawsuit for every game with "The" in the title? These guys are as bad as the happy birthday people who wouldn't let the song be sung on television. I'm glad we don't have Edge Games around here, just good old reputable controversy-free Gamestop.
Clearly they must both be the same person. Kotick realized he wasn't reaching his monthly douchebag quota, so he adopted the persona of Tim Langdell so people won't burn down Activision. And on a completely unrelated note, I now feel compelled to go play Driver...scnj said:

At least the people who wrote happy birthday people made the song, even if it isnt a complex song they made it. This is just stupid Theres no way that they should get away with this. They should be be fined for trying to take advantage of the law or something.chronobreak said:
