Game Developers Get Edgy With Edge - UPDATED

[Georgeman]

Is Shamus Young Stolen Pixels behind this uprising?

OT: So fucking funny. I'd LOVE to see Tim Langdell's stupefied look when he finds out all these Edge games.

His enemies are now Ledgeion.

Hahaha! Rock on dude!

 

[Tears of Blood]

Yes!

Justice is EDGED!

... wait...

 

[Monshroud]

Ya know, if Tim actually released any real games over the last 5 years or so besides some re-hashes to modern platforms I might actually be on his side, but the fact is he hasn't actually shown any product development besides saying on his website that he is.

So Tim needs to either deliver a product to market ASAP or back the hell off.

This is sort of the legal equivalent of a group of hostages*(living on the EDGE) rushing a guy with a gun.

I like it.

Fixed it for you.

 

[iamthehorde]

this is so great i don´t even know what to say. fuck dr tim!

 

[Gunner_Guardian]

If enough people do this Langdell's head might explode

 

[T-Bone24]

I'm gonna start a company named "Adventures" and sue the fuck out of everyone who uses it.

Hey, it works for Ledgedell?

That made me burst out laughing so hard my housemate came rushing in from the other end of the building. Then he burst out laughing too, if Langdell fails to smile at that one he officially has no soul.

 

[JC175]

This is the best thing that could have possibly happened, maybe it's finally time for Mr. Langdell to wise up to the fact that's he's a douchebag.

Agreed.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

Goodness, this could be enough to drive Langdell over the... brink.

It got a good hearty chortle out of me as well. Thumbs up to these guys, who aren't afraid to point out idiocy where they see it.

Langdell should have seen this coming. It's what happens when you claim to own a word that you didn't make, and start charging people for using it.

If everyone did that there wouldn't be any words left.

 

[WhiteTigerShiro]

I could just imagine some of the bigger companies jumping on this one.

Borderedge
Edge 4 Dead (and you know this kinda thing is up Valve's alley =P)
Edge Fortress 2
Edge Life 2: Episode 3
Dragon Edge: Origins
World of Edgecraft
Edge Theft Auto

 

[Amnestic]

I could just imagine some of the bigger companies jumping on this one.

Borderedge
Edge 4 Dead (and you know this kinda thing is up Valve's alley =P)
Edge Fortress 2
Edge Life 2: Episode 3
Dragon Edge: Origins
World of Edgecraft
Edge Theft Auto

PopCap should get in on this too.

Edge Vs. Zombies
Pegedge
Bookworm Edgeventures
Edgejewled
Edge's Revenge
AstroEdge

 

[Bloodeye]

Ha! I like their style. I'd say the days of Langdell being a dick are about over.

 

[Andronicus]

I could just imagine some of the bigger companies jumping on this one.

Borderedge
Edge 4 Dead (and you know this kinda thing is up Valve's alley =P)
Edge Fortress 2
Edge Life 2: Episode 3
Dragon Edge: Origins
World of Edgecraft
Edge Theft Auto

Actually, I don't think something along the line of Team Edgefort sounds too bad. Not quite the same play on words, but I'd buy it.

Also:
Ratchet and Clank: An Edge in Time
Edge of Goo
Uncharted 2: Among Edges
Edge of Empires
Edgecraft II
Brutal Ledgend

Bethesda just started work on their new franchise, The Edger Scrolls.

 

[Sallix]

I wonder if the guy has tried suing U2's The Edge?

 

[Say Anything]

UPDATE: Wait, there's more. Also joining in the fight, as AaaAAaaaaaAAAAAaaaa!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity [http://www.boingboing.net/2009/11/12/the-edge-case-indies.html] (EeeeEEEeeeeeeeeEEedge!!! - A Feckless Disregard for Poopieheads). Don't be too surprised if even more pop up in the future.

I cannot believe this and if it is in fact true I salute these excellent men.

 

[CrashTestZombie]

For different developers to do this all at once is simply genius. That is all.
