I've been looking at these all day. Singlehandedly the most successful trolling of a CEO in recent memory.
For those not familiar, Langdell has been doing this parasitic bullshit since the 80's.
You can read the whole long, pathetic story here:

@Sherwood: As much as I dislike the ol' jacko, at least he was doing it for something else than his own interest... He believed in what he was saying, as stupid as it was (And despite some of his obvious trolls... "Gopher", anybody?). That guy, on the other hand, is just money-hungry on a word HE DIDN'T EVEN FUCKING INVENTED.
Also, congrats to the devs. This is absolutely brilliant.

Theres one thing that makes Jack Thompson leagues better than this guy,
Jack has come to bat for the gaming industry at least once or twice when someones done something absolutely moronic and blamed videoganmes.

EDGE is IMO one of the best iPhone games in existence. How exactly did anyone get convinced by Tim Langdell that the game deserved to be removed from the App Store because of "copyright infringement"? I hope someone eggs his house. With grenades.
Wow.
What a douchebag, and he's been at this for years, apparently. What exactly does he think entitles him to the word edge? A word he didn't even invent, nonetheless. Way to go Indie devs, show this asshole up.

I'm surprised Tim ol' boy hasn't taken Sega to task yet. Sonic the Hedgehog? Obviously trying to make money on the good word that he invented.
I read about this guy in regards to EDGE on the iPhone being taken out. He's still at it, huh...?
Wasn't there an Edge magazine too?
What about the guy in FF4?
What about Mirror's Edge?
Wasn't there also a game, Edge of Eternity or whatever? Or maybe that was End. Whoops.
Isn't there a term, razor's edge?
So yes, I find this edging on absolutely ludicredge.

He's the "Monster Cable" of the app store.

Just read that article. Isn't it funny how I've never heard of Monster Cable, but have heard of just about every one of their 'trademark infringers'?
Perhaps if Monster Cable and Edge Games actually spent time doing stuff that would actually get their name out there, they wouldn't have people calling them nothing but trademark trolls.

fuck that asshole! this has to be the coolest thing i've read all day. wait, never mind, a friend send an email telling me he's sending me some hashplant beans and a hashplant sampling, that trumps all! what a great day regardless.
You'd think he'd stop trying after all the bad press that followed him trying to take out the iphone EDGE game.
I swear if I EVER see Tim Langdell in public....I'm gonna gingerly walk up to him and say "Tim?....Looks like I have the EDGE!" and uppercut him right in the fucking nose.
This just in: It appears that Tim Langdell, founder and CEO of video game publisher Edge Games, has filed a lawsuit against the entire independent game industry.
This is unbelievably awesome.

Ha ha, glad to see the douchebag get trolled by so many indie developers. More power to them! I look forward to the day when he gets his karmic retribution, hopefully involving fire and kicks to the nads.
Tim Langdlell is the scum of the Earth. How he was able to get such a broad copyright on one common word is still beyond me.
Oh, I've heard of him before. Freaking leech. I should sue him for having a face that scares children and being a general idiot.
Seriously, I mean I could see if it was something like Pac-Man, or Donkey Kong or something unique he came up with but edge is just such a common word, it's ridiculous. What's next, Epic games threatens the makers of Epic Mickey?
Or how about the edge cellular network? Or the dude from U2? Shit like this really pisses me off. I hate when scumbags use the legal system to their advantage.
@ TheToiletDuck

Looking forward to that beautiful day when EA's attack lawyers bend Langdell over a table and give him the arse-fisting of a lifetime.
Without lube.

You know what I find most laughable about Langdell trying to own the word "edge"? The fact that he's clearly ripped off Edge Magazine's logo to use on his company's site. I hope he burns in trademark troll hell.
