The IGDA collects membership fees. That's useful. Membership fees buy beer. Score for Tim "Douchebag" Langdell stepping down. Once he's out of the picture for good, I can finish my newest game title: Edge of Edginess: The Cutting Edge Trilogy
http://tigsource.com/articles/2009/07/15/tim-langdell-and-edge-games-still-at-it http://www.tigsource.com/pages/edge-games Read those articles. This guy pisses me right the fuck off. An example of what he does: Mirrors, a game by edge!
man this shit is fuggin infuriating (i'm infuriated >:{) how come he hasn't been sued or threatened or had legal action taken against him by these much larger companies he's fucking with (ea, sony, etc), while he goes around ruining the smaller developer's for more or less what he seem's to be doing to them (mirror's edge,…
After doing a little digging around, apparently there are some old, old horror stories floating around the internets.

This is the first I've heard of this guy, so maybe I'm jumping to conclusions, but wow! What an uncommonly douchey bag of douche. He ought to be held in contempt for repeated frivolous suits. Or maybe smacked around by The Edge from U2 or something. Whatever they do with people who try to piss on stuff by trying to own…
Can't believe he completely ripped EDGE magazine's font and style, I've got a 1998 issue right next to me now. Surely he'd have to prove that he copyrighted the logo before the first issue of the magazine was published, back in `93 I think. He's going to create lots of resentment and hate towards himself if he keeps it up.
