Some weeks ago, we had a small conversation with David Papazian as we read that his iPhone game was removed from the UK and US markets due to legal reasons.
In our conversation, David made it clear to us that he could not comment on the details of the case but that it did have something to do with the use of the name 'Edge'. That lead us directly to Tim Langdell, the guy behind Edge magazine and several other ventures that use 'Edge' in the name.
As so, we decided to contact Tim. Since he is a well established name in the industry, we expected that he would have a good story on this. Even after our second e-mail about the case, he didn't reply to us, but further research showed us that Tim is involved in many more cases where developers/publishers where forced to rename games, products and services because they contained the word Edge.
Today we received a tip that TIGSource released a detailed story about this issue which is very well worth reading. As the editor states;
“So know your legal rights! As far as I know, trademark strength is not dependent on who “calls it” first, but on how you use it. I would love to hear a lawyer (who is not Buscaglia) comment on this matter.”
UPDATE – The game is back on the US and UK App Stores
