Mobigame CEO David Papazian confirms a renewed EDGE trademark claim by Tim Langdell, aiming to relitigate a long-running dispute over the word “edge.” The 1986 Bobby Bearing port is cited as a basis for the claim, which Mobigame says it will challenge through discovery and potentially seek damages for what it calls trademark trolling that dates back to Langdell’s earlier battles over Edge-related terms.
Mobigame has filed a Virginia federal complaint against Tim Langdell over the EDGE trademark, reviving Langdell’s infamous history of pressuring publishers over the word EDGE. Mobigame argues the evidence Langdell cites shows only a pre-2010 use via a J2ME version largely distributed in Europe, not verifiable U.S. use, while the company leverages the commercial success of Zombie Tsunami to push for discovery and potential compensation if Langdell’s claims are proven. Langdell’s past actions included pressuring Future Publishing and Namco over EDGE and Mirror’s Edge, and Mobigame says it will fight publicly and document the case to prevent similar tactics in the industry.
