TikTok Ban Signed Into Law by President Biden

Owner ByteDance has 270 days to sell off TikTok.

On April 24, President Joe Biden signed a foreign aid package that also included a bill that could ban TikTok in the United States. This ban can only be averted if the China-based company that owns TikTok, ByteDance, sells off the popular social media app before the 270 day time limit is up.

This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...
 

Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

From announcing a $130 edition of Star Wars Outlaws to pulling game licenses from those that bought The Crew, Ubisoft sure is on a roll this week.

The Crew was Ubisoft's open-world racing game that was pulled from sale back in December 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Ubisoft shut down the online servers for The Crew. This effectively made the game unplayable across all platforms, including: PC,...
 

Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

Tim Sweeney is always mad.

The antitrust lawsuit against Valve from Wolfire Games got a little spicy this week. To quickly get you up to speed: Wolfire claims that Valve uses its position with Steam to control game prices and muscle out competition. Though the initial lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, Wolfire amended their suit in May 2022 and the legal battle was back on.

It may have taken almost two years, but we are now starting to see some of the documents that...

President and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Jim Ryan, announced the layoffs to the public today. The public statement came after an email was sent to all employees informing them of the layoffs. From Ryan's...
 

Xbox Confirms PlayStation 5 Releases, Diablo 4 on Game Pass, and Future Hardware Plans

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...

  • Giant's Shadow - Battlefield 1 Patch Notes for December 13

    Giant's Shadow - Battlefield 1 Patch Notes for December 13

    The patch notes for tomorrow's (December 13) update for Battlefield 1 were released earlier than normal. Typically, we're sitting here waiting for the patch notes to drop hours after the actual update is out. Not so for this one!

    This is the "Giant's Shadow" update. A new map arrives that places you in the Battle of Selle on a cold autumn day in 1918. Of course, despite this map pack being free, those with Premium will still get it early (tomorrow), while the rest have to wait until December 20.

    This update will include some non-time gated content too. This includes a Spectator Mode, a new game setting that gives everyone a bolt-action rifle (yay, historical accuracy), and plenty of changes and balancing for classes, vehicles, maps, and more. It has a Model 10-A nerf (how this wasn't done before is a mystery). It has a fix for 'some' DirectX 11 hanging issues. It's got a little bit of everything!...

    EA Says No New Battlefield for a "Couple of Years"

    It looks like Battlefield fans will have to be content with what is available to them for the next couple of years. EA said that they will not release another entry in the franchise for at least a "couple of years." EA CFO, Blake Jorgensen, confirmed this while speaking at the NASDAQ 35th Investor Program. He said that EA "won't have another Battlefield back for a couple of years. Next year we'll have Battlefront, the Star Wars game." Right now, the only major plans for ...

    In case you weren't aware (or forgot), Battlefest kicked off today. From now until November 27, Battlefield 1 players will get chances to engage in a variety of events, giveaways, missions, and more.

    Battlefield 1 Fall Update Released; Causing Issues for Some Users

    The Fall update for Battlefield 1 was released earlier today across all available platforms. The changelog is massive and includes tons of fixes, balancing, and changes to the game. The problem is it also seems to cause some issues for a number of users.

    Players have reported a drastic increase in texture flickering with this update in addition to a number of crashes. Others that have updated their Nvidia drivers have also reported less performance from previous drivers. Good...

    Battlefield 1 Twitter Pulls Tasteless #justWWIthings Campaign

    This past weekend, the Battlefield 1 Twitter account sent out a number of controversial Tweets under the hashtag of #justWWIthings. A couple of examples can be seen above and below.

    Given the rather somber tone of most of the game's single player, a fact that has been praised in numerous reviews, it comes off as a bit tasteless to go with this sort of Twitter campaign. It took a bit of time, but the Battlefield Twitter account did eventually pull the Tweets. An apology ...

  • Squad "Mutiny" Feature Coming Back to Battlefield 1

    Squad "Mutiny" Feature Coming Back to Battlefield 1

    One thing that Battlefield 1 seems to lack are squad leaders that actually lead the squad. How often have you sat and requested orders from your leader only to receive none? It's probably a lot.

    Fortunately, DICE is aware that people want the mutiny feature back. A DICE developer posting on Reddit said that the feature from Battlefield 4 will be making a return very soon.
    Heya, this is one of the most requested features. It will be fixed in one of the upcoming patches.

    DICE Changes How You Earn Medals in Battlefield 1

    Earning medals in Battlefield 1 just got a little bit more... different. Those who know what medals are or how to earn them in a Battlefield game may want to take a seat here, because DICE is changing up the tried and true formula. They say that they're giving players more freedom to choose which medals they go after, but are limiting the achievable medals to just five a week.

    That sounds a little backwards, right?
    Battlefield veterans will notice some changes in how
