Well, if Tim is a viking, then he should definitely go the way of the viking. Put him on a boat, push it out to sea, then set fire to it.

Oh, he has to be dead first? Meh, minor detail.

To drop the sarcasm, here's some more idiocy. The article keeps saying "vidgames" instead of "videogames". They also begin a paragraph by saying "Firm has begun working on licensing..." I think that's all we need to know, seeing as how the only organization wikipedia knows of called "firm" is a criminal gang active in the East End of London.
Um, Variety has been known for its weird abbreviations and showbiz jargon since the '20s. Nothing wrong there. In fact, if it is a fake, it's a darn good one for reproducing that aspect of the publication.

Actually you've got a point there. I just did some research, and...

 Shocked

Holy shit, I was wrong, Langdell wasn't lying.

EDIT: Although... there isn't any evidence that any of these stories were actually printed in the paper. So that part may still be false.

Interesting article, can we find out more about Tim's interactive movie project "Mr. Payback."

It links to an article with an amusing synopsis:
Quote
Spoof about a man who takes action against some people that are annoying him. Audience determines what brand of justice the hero will mete out to offending villains.

Certainly makes me wish Tim starred in it...

Didn't find anything interesting by quickly googling it, but it might be worth looking into.

Just got this in my mailbox:

PUBLIC STATEMENT

23rd August 2009

“Edge of Twilight proceeds with title unchanged”

FUZZYEYES™ approached EDGE® Games several months ago, with the intent to resolve any issues arising out of both companies use of the mark "EDGE." Fuzzyeyes, developer of the game titled "Edge of Twilight," sought to address any potential trademark conflicts. Through amicable negotiations, Fuzzyeyes and Edge Games have arrived at a satisfactory arrangement that addresses the concerns of both parties. This arrangement allows the highly anticipated Edge of Twilight to proceed with its title unchanged, and without infringement on any trademarks held by Edge Games.

Lu, Wei-Yao
CEO of FUZZYEYES™

About EDGE OF TWILIGHT

Edge of Twilight is a 3rd person action adventure game in development for the PC, PLAYSTATION®3 and Xbox 360 platforms. Gameplay is split between combat, puzzle-solving and exploration. These elements will in turn be split between the two parallel planes of reality that only the player may traverse; the spiritually influenced, Lithern night realm, and the industrial, Athern dominated, day realm.

Sounds to me like Edge Games has just spawned a new commercial venture. Sad.  Sad

Wouldn't it be funny if Langdell was actually blackmailed into doing nothing about it, because they found evidence of his connection to Firm?

Not likely, though.  Huh?

Facepalm The sad thing is that every time one of these guys knuckles under and gives Langdell a license, he has more grounds to claim commercial use of the mark. It's sort of sad, really. If none of these people had done this, he eventually would have been judged to have abandoned the mark--licensing it out is the only use he makes of it anymore. Oh well.

That would be nice. Except if evidence was found they could present it, still keep the name and can Langdell's antics for good. It would be nice but that's probably not the case Sad
