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.

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...

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 ...

    Free Call of Duty: Ghosts Multiplayer Demo Weekend on Xbox One and 360

    This weekend, Activision will have a free weekend for Call of Duty: Ghosts on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. This is, apparently, the first time such an event has taken place on the consoles. It is a fairly "common" occurrence on the PC platform however.

    They are calling it a "demo" and will feature three maps (Strikezone, Warhawk, and Prison Break) across three game modes. Yes, you will still need an Xbox Live Gold subscription in order to play this demo.

  • Sledgehammer Games to Develop 2014 Call of Duty Release as Development Cycle Switches to Three Years

    Previously, the development roles on the Call of Duty franchise alternated between Infinity Ward and Treyarch. Now, Activision has announced that Sledgehammer Games is coming in as a third developer for the series. This will move the two year development cycle to a three year development cycle for each studio. Sledgehammer is already to finish up development on the 2014 installment of the series. So yes, while the development cycle per studio is at three years, there will still be an...

  • Sales of Call of Duty: Ghosts Are Down 19% Compared to Black Ops II

    Sales of Call of Duty: Ghosts Are Down 19% Compared to Black Ops II

    It's the end of the world as Activision knows it as sales of Call of Duty: Ghosts are even worse than an already lowered sales forecast for the game.
    The publisher told investors that it anticipated that Call of Duty: Ghosts sales would come up short of what Black Ops II did. Cowen analyst Doug Creutz thinks that a closer look at the numbers reveal that things are even worse for Call of Duty: Ghosts than what the Activision guidance suggests. “Upon further reflection, we think the [

    Call of Duty: Ghosts is the Top Selling 'Next-Gen' Title

    It turns out that players still want to play Call of Duty as shown by the fact that Call of Duty: Ghosts is the best-selling "next-gen" title released so far. Activision announced that Ghosts is both the top-selling game for both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and the most played game on both platforms.

  • Call of Duty: Ghosts to Receive Day One Patch to Run at 1080p on PS4

    Call of Duty: Ghosts to Receive Day One Patch to Run at 1080p on PS4

    No seriously, Call of Duty: Ghosts on the PlayStation 4 will ship with 720p visuals. However, a patch that will be ready on release day will bump the game up to 1080p like magic.
    "There was a configuration issue in the retail version on single-player mode only. This has been addressed with a day one software update. People will be able to download the day one update when PlayStation 4 launches in their territory and play at native 1080p."
    So yeah, the multiplayer will be 1080p right out o...

  • Activision Admits Call of Duty: Ghosts Sold Less than Black Ops 2 at Launch

    Activision Admits Call of Duty: Ghosts Sold Less than Black Ops 2 at Launch

    Despite Activision proudly proclaiming that Call of Duty: Ghosts shipped more than $1 billion worth of product to retail outlets, they admitted that they have not actually sold that amount. In fact, they really haven't even come close to that figure.

    Activision's CFO Dennis Durkin told investors that Ghosts has not even hit Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 sales figures yet. They're naturally blaming it on the upcoming release of the new consoles and digital distribution... somehow. Really?...

  • FOV Changing Tool for COD: Ghosts Issued Cease and Desist Order from Activision

    Seeing as how Infinity Ward forgot that people hate a locked FOV (especially one that is around 65 by default), a group took it upon themselves to release a tool that let users change the FOV of the game they paid for.

    Activision issued a cease and desist order against the group and their FOV tool.

    It's made even worse when you look back to 2012 when a developer at Infinity Ward said they do not mind FOV changing mods and that they will not ban for their use. Whoops! ...

  • Quick! Tell Us Which Game is Modern Warfare 2 and Which is Ghosts?

    Quick! Tell Us Which Game is Modern Warfare 2 and Which is Ghosts?

    Ah yes, it looks as though Infinity Ward copied from their own game for a scene in Call of Duty: Ghosts. The scenes in question are from the ending of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 while the Ghosts' scene is from the start of the game.

    Which is which? You decide!

    And yes, I get that the scenes are not identical, that would just be completely insane. They do, however, use the same rigging, animation, and framing....
