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 ...

    Sony's Jim Ryan Reportedly Said His Goal is to 'Block Your Merger' in Closed Door Meeting with Activision

    The CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment reportedly had some choice words during a meeting with Activision.

    It has been a ridiculous day for Sony when it comes to new details that have come out about the company's opposition to the Microsoft and Activision Blizzard merger.

    First, a new report from The Verge's Tom Warren shared some key pieces of information from documents (PDF download) that were recently submitted to the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA)....

    Activision Reportedly Hacked; 2023 Schedule for Call of Duty Leaked

    Phishing is to blame for this latest infiltration.

    According to leaked internal documents, Activision had a bit of a security breach on December 4, 2022. It was on this date where someone with high-level access to the internal Activision network was phished and their credentials used to access information that should have never been made public.

    It's not really clear yet how much of the information that was leaked only today is accurate. There is also no saying whether...

    Season 02 of Modern Warfare 2 to Include Hardcore Mode and Several Warzone Changes

    New details on the second season came out over the weekend.

    Infinity Ward says that a Hardcore game mode is coming to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 when Season 02 drops on February 15. They didn't say much about the Hardcore mode outside of there being no in-game HUD. Hardcore also typically enables friendly fire and lowers the time to kill (TTK), but those features have yet to be confirmed for this particular Hardcore mode.

    When it comes to the DMZ, we know that there...

    Call of Duty Players Discover a Lot of Really Broken Movement Tech

    Players are running around like the Fast Zombies from Half-Life 2.

    Every new Call of Duty release brings with it new experiences, new content, and new exploits to discover. The most recently released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 are certainly no exceptions. With a player base that could easily be several million large, due to strong sales and the freely offered Warzone 2.0, it almost seems inevitable that some fresh exploits would be discovered.

    Microsoft Offers Sony a 10 Year Deal to Keep Call of Duty on PlayStation

    The reveal comes as the Microsoft-Activision deal faces harsh scrutiny.

    The $69 billion (USD) deal that would see Microsoft acquire Activision Blizzard is still very much the focus of intense scrutiny from several of the world's regulation authorities. Apparently, one of the big issues that this regulators have is with the idea that Microsoft will pull several long-running multi-platform titles from those non-Microsoft platforms. Obviously, the Call of Duty franchise is one of the...
