EIDOS FILES SECOND
UNDERWORLD MARK

[ January 4th 2008 ]
Eidos
has filed a second trademark protection request
for Tomb
Raider Underworld, this time securing the
rights to produce a series of Lara
Croft collectables. According to the U.S.
Trademark Applications and Registrations Retrieval
system, the newly
filed application is for "toys and games,
namely, action figures, stuffed and wind-up toys,
board games, action skill games, and arcade games;
playthings, namely, play and action figures."
Another
interesting point in this trademark application
is that of "providing computer games that may
be accessed network-wide by network users" which
would tie in rather nicely with recent
comments by Riley Cooper on utilising the
Playstation Network or Xbox Live service in order
to distribute video-games.
An original
trademark
filing back in November 2007 unveiled the
name Tomb Raider Underworld as the title of the
eighth Lara Croft-helmed adventure, now under
the aegis of Crystal Dynamics. Eidos is currently
too busy furnishing print
media with information to officially announce
the game.
