www.armorgame.com thats the link i accidentally typed in when comming here. I was about to log in when i realized i forgot the s. I started looking around and it was a exact copy of Armorgames, every thing was the same and working, games, forum posts. Shouldn't legal action be taken?

Well as far as I am aware that is actually Armor Games mobile site. It pops up instead of the regular site when using a mobile device, though I don't think it works as it should just yet. It uses one of AG's other logo's that has been seen on other sites before, and even links itself to the original website, so that is actually not a fake like the others.

I don't remember seeing the AG 3.0 logo unveiled on other sites.

The other sites that look like AG aren't made precisely to mimic the site, they somehow load a duplicate of it.

It's just a domain redirecting you to armorgames.com just the url is without the s on games.

No, if it was just redirecting you, you'd still be logged in. Even if you're logged in at armorgames.com, you aren't at armorgame.com.

I don't know if its the AG 3.0 logo, but I have seen it before on other sites. I remember there was an indie game competition(or tournament I can't remember) and AG was helping sponsor it, and it used that logo to represent the site, the same one as on the mobile site. I can't find other places right now that it has been used, since I have to go to school in a couple of minutes, but I think if I remember then I will go and try to find it being used elsewhere later.

I belive this is not the real ArmorGames. John has to pay to keep this site running and it is very hard because ArmorGames is free. He gets ads but there is not that many and he also has to pay the game developes. So why would he be paying for more Armorgames site if it is hard for him to pay for one?

I've written a comment to Carlie and gave her these sites for proof:
first the fake and the "Link to Armor Games" . Now for the real "Link to Armor Games" .
I'm no expert, like I said to Carlie but I can see no difference. I let you know, unless she posts here directly, what she says.

Daniel McNeely runs and operates this site. John Cooney is the head of game development.

I don't know if its the AG 3.0 logo, but I have seen it before on other sites. I remember there was an indie game competition(or tournament I can't remember) and AG was helping sponsor it, and it used that logo to represent the site, the same one as on the mobile site.

It is the AG 3.0 logo, or at least a prototype. The crown appears on the beta site too, and the same logo in black and white appeared on two employment blog posts. I've also seen some icons of it on a few games. As far as I know, it hasn't been publicly unveiled, and the blue shield is still the official logo.

@wajor59

The site's actually a duplicate of AG. I don't know much about web programming so that's all I can say.
