Le PDG de Mobigame s'engage à contester une nouvelle revendication sur la marque Edge

Mobigame prévoit de contester une nouvelle revendication de marque déposée par le PDG d'Edge Games, Tim Langdell, concernant le mot Edge. Le studio mobile a l'intention de maintenir le litige dans le domaine public et de documenter l'affaire de manière exhaustive.

Le PDG de Mobigame, David Papazian, a déclaré que son entreprise traite avec Langdell depuis plus de 17 ans. Il a qualifié Langdell de « troll des marques » et a affirmé que Mobigame demanderait une indemnisation complète si les preuves venaient étayer sa position.

La plainte actuelle concerne une version mobile antérieure du jeu Bobby Bearing de 1986. Papazian a noté des différences dans la distribution entre les régions et prévoit de contacter le créateur original pour obtenir un témoignage.

Langdell avait déjà obtenu le retrait du jeu Edge de Mobigame des boutiques d'applications en 2009. Ce litige précédent s'était conclu en 2010 après un règlement impliquant Electronic Arts et Mirror's Edge.

Mobigame est désormais financièrement plus solide et a l'intention de demander la production de documents et de dossiers plutôt que de régler l'affaire à l'amiable.
