Since when is Neowin a games development company?

[+Frank B. Subscriber²]

I was looking around the Google Play Store last night. On a hunch I searched for Neowin and came across this developer:

https://play.google....Games+Co.,+Ltd.

A side project to make extra money for the site surely. :shifty:

Korean?

[compl3x]

Sue! Unauthorised use of the Neowin name!

[Growled Member]

So that is what Neowin has been doing on the side. :D

[LUTZIFER]

Well from their site, (in Korea) it has only been around since 2010. This Neowin has been here for a very long time. So yeah, sue!!

Should have trademarked Neowin...

[Torolol]

it has 'win' in their sites, but creates games for android ...

It's because Android = Win(ning)

[techbeck]

Maybe Neowin means something in that language. There are some weird translations between languages.

[fusi0n]

Guess this is why the Site has been running slow.. they turned the other servers into dev boxes.. i knew it!!! :p

[Hum]

So that is what Neowin has been doing on the side. :D

This is how Neowin pays the Mods big bucks. :p

Nope, Winning.

Neowin is an LLC, so you could argue for them to change their name.

Seriously? Give it a rest. This is not about WP vs Android.

My thoughts exactly. However when a poor posts (Win(cing)) gets posted.. the need for a post showing how poor it is is required.

IANAL but good luck with that.

Neowin is a news site, they are a game developer - their headquarters is in China and they have R&D in Korea...

I doubt you will have much luck besides a hefty legal bill

Yeah, that's what I was thinking...oh well.

Also what's IANAL? Definitely not an abbreviation I've heard before.

[Mando]

They are called NeowinGames Co Ltd, and as far as I can tell that's not the same as Neowin.net

Is Neowin a registered trade mark?

Based in Shanghai & South Korea.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking...oh well.

IANAL = I am not a lawyer

[MikeChipshop Member]

Neowin the website has no authority over Neowin the games maker.

Now if they if they started running a tech news/forum site, that would be a different story.

[Hum]

Also what's IANAL? Definitely not an abbreviation I've heard before.

= Into Anal ? :rofl:

= Into Anal ? :rofl:
