Support NeoGAF

[Comandr]

There’s no way this doesn’t get thrown out by the judge.

 

[Chuck Berry]

That new logo of Remedy could be better.

Seriously. They shouldve just stuck to the old one.

The new one is just as terrible as Alan Wake 2.

Judge: Remedy, what’s your defense?

Florida Joker needs our support now more than ever

 

[tusharngf]

one of the worst publishers ever that is take 2.. their after game support is abysmal and CEO doesnt give a shit about anything but money

take two

 

[Revolutionary]

I hope that agreement for the Max Payne remakes is airtight.

This was my initial thought as well. What a dumb move by Take 2

 

[CherryFalls]

So they make a game with a character who is racist to white people which flops, now they have to go through court spending money. Lol, karma bitch

 

[crackajack]

Next they sue Respawn, Rare and Raven because of totally similar Rs and orange in the latter two logos and Raven's raven certainly looks almost like a star if you really try to see it, not. smh

 

[MikeM]

Rockstar thinks they own the letter R lol perhaps they could have allocated the legal costs of this action to hiring devs for a PC GTA6 release day 1.

 

[nowhat]

Wait, aren't they working together for the Max Payne remake?

well ..

As I've understood it, T2 just gave Remedy the green light for the remakes, as they own the IP. But Remedy is doing it on their own.

But never let reason get in the way of a trigger-happy IP lawyer.

 

[angrod14]

I hope Remedy wins (as they should, because those logos look nothing alike) and make Take-Two pay every single dime in legal fees.

 

[Magic Carpet]

They need to stop giving trademarks to Letters. I hope a Judge throws out "X".

 

[EverydayBeast]

Control is everything to these companies.

 

[trikster40]

That's a fight they will lose, there aren't enough similarities except both start with R.

They're hoping to win through intimidation and never go to court.

TFW you live long enough for EA to become the least-hated amongst the huge 3rd party publishers.

 

[TVexperto]

i hope this wont have any consequences on the max payne remake (remedy and rockstar allowed them to do the remake)

 

[John Bilbo]

Seriously. They shouldve just stuck to the old one.

Yeah that R with the bullet & casing in it is great. It also tied them nicely with Max Payne.

 

[Kadve]

TFW you live long enough for EA to become the least-hated amongst the huge 3rd party publishers.

Considering they lost 8,5% and later 13.3% of their value following the Battlefront II and Battlefield V debacles.... Yea i can see them wanting to try a new direction of not being scumbags.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

Seriously. They shouldve just stuck to the old one.

The new one is just as terrible as Alan Wake 2.

This law suit is frivolous as hell... that said, you're absolutely right! Remedy's old logo was infinitely better than the new one.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Seriously. They shouldve just stuck to the old one.

The new one is just as terrible as Alan Wake 2.

Both logos are terrible but I'm surprised to say it but the new one is better.

The old one just says 1996 is alive and well, somehow.

Remedy, if you're reading, I've got a new logo for you. All yours for £2m:

Remedy.

 

[Braag]

Uuuuugh... Take Two continues being up its own ass.

 

[Chuck Berry]

This law suit is frivolous as hell... that said, you're absolutely right! Remedy's old logo was infinitely better than the new one.

All that new logo does is remind me how terrible AW2 was (to me)

Hopefully T2 wins the lawsuit and they revert back to the classic look. Hell, hopefully they revert back to making good games.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

Edit - I've made a stupid post that makes no sense.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

Control was excellent.

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Pathetic.
Godspeed Remedy.

 

[Deerock71]

That goes nowhe*e, unless only Take-Two holds the *ights to the lette* * exclusively.


What the actual FUCK?!

 

[Chuck Berry]

Control was excellent.

That it was

 

[John Bilbo]

Control was excellent.

It was OK. Max Payne is still great.

 

[The_Observer]

This is really pathetic. I hope the MP remakes are safe

 

[Iced Arcade]

Yeah that R with the bullet & casing in it is great. It also tied them nicely with Max Payne.

Holy shit. I'm today years old when I realized that was a bullet.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Maybe if they make their logo a quadruple R, then T2 will leave them alone. lol

 

[ungalo]

Aren't they making the Max Payne remake together ? Lol.

 

[crackajack]

Holy shit. I'm today years old when I realized that was a bullet.

I kinda saw the remnant of the crippled R in the oval porthole or whatever but never would have seen a bullet in there either. Now it was pointed out I can't fathom how I could not see it.

 

[John Bilbo]

Holy shit. I'm today years old when I realized that was a bullet.

 

[FeralEcho]

Are they trying to make that idiot Florida Joker actually have a claim with them doing such retarded shit cuz If a logo with a letter that looks absolutely nothing alike as a logo has claim so does a guy you made an actual fucking character over would so

 

[cash_longfellow]

Fuck outta here

 

[FeralEcho]

Control is everything to these companies.

Only to Remedy.

 

[kyussman]

One has an R with a star(Rockstar).....the other has an R with Remedy written underneath.....who the fuck is getting those confused,lol.

 

[FeralEcho]

Fuck outta here

Holy shit And they have the nerve to do this to Remedy...What a bunch of greedy fucks.

 

[FeralEcho]

One has an R with a star(Rockstar).....the other has an R with Remedy written underneath.....who the fuck is getting those confused,lol.

Strauss Zelnick is probably confused why he can't make more money off of it.Greedy c*nt would sell his grandmother for profit.

[Stefan.North]

I guess we should all espect the Take Two and ockstas ights and owneship of the lette -R-

We must wok aound this vey slight issue, and emembe that we have 25 othe lettes.

 

[Švejk]

One's a hard R.... Big difference.

 

[amigastar]

Now that's low. I hope they loose.

 

[Kaleinc]

Solution - to avoid confusion with R*, Remedy should take their R and add N* in front

 

[Neon Xenon]

Take Two Interactive is the same company who attempted to go after Hazelight Studios last year for their game being named "It Takes Two". Because the general public would obviously get "It Takes Two" and "Take Two Interactive" mixed up, right?

So I'm less surprised towards the fact that this lawsuit is taking place, with more surprise directed at just how fucking stupid this particular lawsuit is.

Seriously. They shouldve just stuck to the old one.

The new one is just as terrible as Alan Wake 2.

While I don't hate Remedy's current logo, their old logo is superior.

No lie, I looked around for signs that this was an older April Fools thread that got bumped.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

I see the resemblance I guess. R, I immediately think Rockstar. Than being said, it’s a R.

 

[poppabk]

Florida Joker needs our support now more than ever

That was my first thought, we laughed when the joker guy said he was filing a lawsuit - but the Florida Joker guy looks a lot closer to the in game character than these two logos look alike.
