What’s the story behind this and is it credible?.

Having assisted a couple of groups battle Jane Whittaker in court over his claims involvement in numerous big name titles, including Goldeneye, World Of War craft, Dungeon Keeper 2 and many more…
I have to ask what exactly Tim’s role was on PlayStation God of War, as he’s just one of many names listed in the ‘Special Thanks’ section.
I can’t find his exact involvement in World Of Warcraft either.
After having looked into claims made by likes of Mark Cale, Jez San, Martin Hooley, Jim Gregory, Kingsley Brothers and found them very wanting, I have become extremely cynical of UK industry figures.
Tim also claimed he helped Sir Clive design the ZX Spectrum, is this true?
I really need a greater understanding of him to discover if he was simply misunderstood at times and miss quoted (there was the case of him saying he helped design parts of Fairlight, people wrongly accused him of saying he was claiming to be the games level designer) or he’s joined the aforementioned names for fabricating degrees of involvement.
no doubt some cabal of Langdell h8rs mate ! once again, we’re showing our ignorance in the presence of minds vastly superior to our own (probably)

He’s not my friend, I think he’s a cunt and his existence irks me. But the people at RLLMUK have spent years covering this stuff and some of those people are in the industry. While it might have been in his own thousand-posts-a-minute ACTCHUALLY way, he was just offering you a collection of info to help you reach the facts and such.
he wasn’t, i’ve seen all that “info” and it’s just the usual directionless, conspiratorial nonsense that we always see encircling such situations. it’s rubbish blowing around the streets, anyone can pick it up but only a fool (or an expert in recycling) would choose to make use of it.
also, if you think he’s a cunt, what brought you here ? you’ve never posted before and your posts came hot on the heels of those he made, so one can be forgiven for presuming you’re in cahoots. also, all you’ve said simply serves to (attempt to) encourage me to give his points credence. i shall not be doing that. he/you have a place for information, i have mine. people are entitled to view things however they wish, but it’s interesting that a 10+ year court and legal dalliance ended in the complete failure of Mr Marzipan’s attempts to take the trademark for himself. furthermore, and i didn’t mention this in the video but i might as well as you’re clearly not aware of it, either, Mr Marzipan also finally LOST a case in France where he once again sought to bring the name under his control. he’s done. the verdict is in. no amount of trash from years ago changes that fact.

Don’t get me wrong George, I’ve known SeanR for years and he is an utter dweeb who I have gone into swear-laden tirades at before, but he knows his stuff on this subject. Editing comments and making fun of typos doesn’t help: what happened to your goal of leaving the retro community a better place?
from where i’m sitting, he doesn’t seem to know very much at all and is just throwing around the same putrid mud that i’ve encountered elsewhere. having some random come in and tell me he “knows his stuff” isn’t going to convince me to suddenly accept his nonsense as gospel. if you choose to represent yourself in a silly way, then you can expect to be called out for being silly. this isn’t youtube, i don’t give a fuck if people are offended by facts. if someone wants to come on and start talking off at tangents about gay pornography and making retarded insinuations then they can’t truly expect to be taken seriously. also, “better” is, once again, a malleable concept. my definition thereof evidently doesn’t tie up with yours. go and sign the petition against octopus farming instead of wasting your time here trying to back up your cretinous friend.
cheers mate, as you can probably see there’s already 1 imbecile here to attempt to cry foul and perpetuate the troll narrative, but that’s not going to happen on my watch. this is a bastion of sense, for the most part, where such things are concerned. i very much call things as i see them, as you well know, and this seems a very obvious case of community asshurt trumping actual facts to the point where the latter is obfuscated by wilful, witless stupidity. again, not on my watch !
George: Edge Games never produced a magazine under their trademark in the US. They presented mock-ups, and edited copyright material, and presented that as proof, in court. Also I’m sorry that you’ve felt the need to resort to ad hominem attacks on what was supposed to be further discussion on “what does and doesn’t constitute trademark trolling”, especially when it involves Timmy Langers…. You’re normally quite good at this sort of stuff, but you’re losing your audience here. Did i mention that I’m in love with you, and that I need your bank account details so I can pay my annual earnings to you for making such amazing and on the button content ? and, also, don’t worry about losing me from your audience, I’m here masturbating all day – every day !
ps. what you predicted to happen with this video is definitely happening, and I myself am living proof of someone who wasn’t in on the ground level when they were handing out brains. Still, at least I can masturbate to my “special interest” magazines imported from the USA!
mate you don’t need to go that far, it’s just nice to know someone is watching, regardless of whether or not they’re in complete and total agreement. also mate don’t put yourself down !
also, Tim didn’t present any of this in court. this was stuff that EA got from postings that Mr Marzipan had made. once again, you don’t know what you’re talking about. kindly grow and/or use a brain before you come back here.
Here’s the bulk of the material I’m referencing from back in the day, not my work, you understand? I was a mere bystander, with a long memory. (link removed for the sake of PURE LULZ)
“a mere bystander” lol who just happens to show up as soon as a video about the object of their affection goes live in a far flung corner of the internet. not obsessed at all, though, mate, are you ?
Edge was called Next-Gen in the US https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Generation_(magazine) because I seem to recall it was a Gay Interest magazine title in the states. The rebrand to edge happened in 2008 after a period of inactivity.
also, next-generation WAS a different magazine, and sometimes published articles that had appeared in edge BUT it was NOT the same as edge. i bet you’re annoying if you go for milkshakes with friends with the amount of straws you’re clutching for. it’s pathetic !
I’m on my phone, George. The keyboard is a little cramped, hence the occasional type. I need it to refer to all the langdell material I have going back to 2009… also: the “work on God of War”? You seem to have mistaken it for a “special thanks” from a former pupil.
Nah, I was just expecting more intrigue in a blood on the carpet documentary style, and maybe coverage of the trolling langdell did do. You’ve seen the modified material, right? For example: Not an actual edge cover, claims to have Edge PCs within?
this is just gibberish mate. there’s plenty of blood on the carpet stuff out there about tim, the point here was to provide an alternative view on things, based only on facts not conjecture. also, i believe tim has an agreement with edge magazine for them to use the title, so if you want to know anything about that i’d suggest asking him yourself.
also, you do know that Edge Games had their own magazine in the USA, called EDGE, and that their agreement with EDGE magazine in Europe meant that the European version couldn’t sell in the USA, hence EDGE GAMES doing their own magazine in the USA. I mean, you’re clearly an expert so you know that, right ? RIGHT ?
depends on your definition of good, really. it’s a subjective term. i’m sure idi amin thought he was “good”. if you mean “when does the spastic start swearing and tearing a strip off people ? i come here to vampire on that stuff !” then this maybe isn’t the video for you.

George, you amazing individual! (comment edited so as to more correctly reflect reality)
thanks mate, i knew you would see sense eventually !
George: Edge Games never produced a magazine under their trademark in the US. They presented mock-ups, and edited copyright material, and presented that as proof, in court.

“a mere bystander” lol who just happens to show up as soon as a video about the object of their affection goes live in a far flung corner of the internet. not obsessed at all, though, mate, are you ?
so basically you’re admitting to being JAFO mate ? fantastic. i’ll just pop all your opinions straight into the toilet then.
George.
Edge was called Next-Gen in the US https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Generation_(magazine) because I seem to recall it was a Gay Interest magazine title in the states. The rebrand to edge happened in 2008 after a period of inactivity.
i don’t know anything about gay interest magazines from the usa. presumably you had it imported ?
also, next-generation WAS a different magazine, and sometimes published articles that had appeared in edge BUT it was NOT the same as edge. i bet you’re annoying if you go for milkshakes with friends with the amount of straws you’re clutching for. it’s pathetic !
I’m on my phone, George. The keyboard is a little cramped, hence the occasional type. I need it to refer to all the langdell material I have going back to 2009… also: the “work on God of War”? You seem to have mistaken it for a “special thanks” from a former pupil.
The deal with edge over the name stopped in 2008z
Ah yes, that famous year 2008z. how do you even get from “8” on the keyboard to “z” ? well done on that, at least. it’s quite something.
I was expecting more to be made of that time Edge Games started using a knock off of the EDGE Magazine logO on things http://web.archive.org/web/20010111004700/www.edgegames.com/edgeware.html
maybe you should make your own video, then. i’m sure it would be scintillating. doesn’t seem like it’d be crammed with misinformed asshurt AT ALL.
Nah, I was just expecting more intrigue in a blood on the carpet documentary style, and maybe coverage of the trolling langdell did do. You’ve seen the modified material, right? For example: Not an actual edge cover, claims to have Edge PCs within?
this is just gibberish mate. there’s plenty of blood on the carpet stuff out there about tim, the point here was to provide an alternative view on things, based only on facts not conjecture. also, i believe tim has an agreement with edge magazine for them to use the title, so if you want to know anything about that i’d suggest asking him yourself.
i think we have different definitions of “trolling”. get back in your box.
also, you do know that Edge Games had their own magazine in the USA, called EDGE, and that their agreement with EDGE magazine in Europe meant that the European version couldn’t sell in the USA, hence EDGE GAMES doing their own magazine in the USA. I mean, you’re clearly an expert so you know that, right ? RIGHT ?
Oh George. Did Tim ever release MIRRORS (from) EDGE? I see he’s deleted the edited images he created to “prove” his ownership of the marque.
George, I’m 12 minutes in. This better get good.
depends on your definition of good, really. it’s a subjective term. i’m sure idi amin thought he was “good”. if you mean “when does the spastic start swearing and tearing a strip off people ? i come here to vampire on that stuff !” then this maybe isn’t the video for you.
