Report: E3 2023 is Canceled

This fate was inevitable.

According to a report by IGN, E3 2023 is canceled. This comes after weeks of publishers and gaming companies stating that they were not going to attend E3 this year, including Ubisoft, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Sega, Tencent, and more.

IGN's report from March 30 says that two separate sources confirmed with them that the Entertainment Software Association (ESA; the group behind E3) sent out emails to ESA members earlier today announcing the cancellation....
 

Valve Announces Counter-Strike 2

Valve's massively popular FPS gets an engine upgrade and a test starting today.

Valve officially announced Counter-Strike 2 today after weeks of teases, speculation, and rumors. The developer calls this "the largest technical leap forward in Counter-Strike's history" and I'm inclined to believe it.

Counter-Strike 2 will launch to everyone starting in Summer of 2023. Counter-Strike 2 will be a free upgrade to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Some Counter-Strike:...
 

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)....
 

Review: The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition

An easy purchase for new players but maybe a hard sell for existing owners.

It was not until I reinstalled the original PC release of The Outer Worlds that I was able to really appreciate the improvements made with the release of The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition. Initially, I believed that this looked exactly like the same game that I had played on PC back in late 2019 when it first came out.

"I'm just not seeing what makes this Spacer's Choice Edition worth...
 

All Steam Fest and Steam Sale Dates for 2023

Valve shared their 2023 schedule of events with developers.

The entire schedule of big seasonal sales and themed Steam Fest events was shared yesterday by Valve. Now you'll know months in advance just how badly your bank accounts are going to hurt.

The list includes four major seasonal sales that include the spring, summer, autumn, and winter sales. In between most of these are small "Fest" events, which also typically have themed sales of their own. There will...

    The Last of Us Part 1 PC Updated Second Time in as Many Days

    It's never a good sign when you have two updates out for a game released just two days ago.

    The second update in as many days for The Last of Us Part 1 on the PC was just released. This update brings the game up to v1.0.1.6 and, like yesterday's update, aims to address some of the game's most egregious issues.

    Today's update aims to reduce memory requirements and crashes related to running out of memory. There are also some additional fixes for crashing right at game start...

    Forthcoming Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty Announcement Announced by CD Projekt Red

    We do like our announcements of announcements here.

    It may have started out a little bit rough, but Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way since its release in 2020. At least, that's what I hear. I haven't gone back to replay the game just yet but I hear it's in a pretty good spot right now.

    We already know that CD Projekt Red is busy working on a major story expansion for Cyberpunk 2077. This expansion, named Phantom Liberty was announced as being in development back in September...

    Evil Dead Coming to Steam in Late April

    After a brief stint on Epic, Ash is about to make his Steam debut.

    On April 26, Evil Dead: The Game - Game of the Year Edition will be released on consoles and PC. This date is also when the game will make its Steam debut after being exclusive to the Epic Games Store since May 2022. It's not exactly clear where or when Evil Dead won any game of the year awards, but we live in a time where words have lost all meaning.

    This Game of the Year Edition will include the base...

    Steam Will No Longer Run on Windows 7 or 8 after January 1, 2024

    It's far past time you updated from these unsupported operating systems.

    This week, Valve announced that if you are running Steam on either Windows 7 or Windows 8, you are going to need to upgrade. Come January 1, 2024, Valve says that the Steam client will no longer run on those versions of Windows.

    If you are one of the fewer than 2% of all Steam users still using either of these operating systems, it's beyond time you got around to moving on to something newer. Microsoft...

    Wrestlin' Nation: John Cena Joining PGA Tour 2K23

    Better mark it a birdie unless you want to be body-slammed into next Thursday.

    John Cena is a lot of things. He was (is?) a WWE Superstar. He has starred in several big films. He's a rapper. He is also huge into philanthropy, having help grant a record setting 600+ Make-a-Wish requests. Now, he's joining professional golfers in PGA Tour 2K23.

    Come April 7, John Cena will be added as a playable golfer in PGA Tour 2K23. Cena joins some other bonus non-PGA pros like Michael...

    Resident Evil 4 Remake Sells Over 3 Million Copies in Just 2 Days

    Of all the Resident Evil remakes, this one is the best selling.

    Capcom says that the recently released Resident Evil 4 remake is selling very, very well. In its first two days of availability, Resident Evil 4 sold over three million copies.

    To give a bit of comparison here, the Resident Evil 2 remake from 2019 took a week to hit two million copies shipped. 2020's remake of Resident Evil 3 sold 3.9 million units sold after a year and a half. Both Resident Evil 2 and Resident...

    The layoffs come as part of a company "restructuring."

    Electronic Arts announced today that they are laying off about 6% of their total workforce as part of a new restructuring plan. This same plan also includes "optimizing its real estate portfolio and re-focusing its efforts around growth opportunities." This unfortunate news comes to us courtesy of GamesIndustry.biz.

    As of their last annual report, EA employed 12,900 people globally. This information...

    This show is about to feature Konami and Konami only.

    A day after Ubisoft announced that they were not going to attend E3 2023 after all, comes word that neither Sega nor Tencent will be there either. This news was shared with IGN by "numerous individuals in publishing and PR who typically have knowledge of event strategies."

    Many of these sources told IGN that they have not yet heard of anyone else who is planning to attend E3 2023. They also say that part of...

    What you need to know about in-game purchases - The Basics

    In-game purchases are now very common among players of all ages. What most gamers probably don't realise is that video game companies use behavioural psychology to heavily stimulate their customers before they even decide to make an in-game purchase. Mobile games played on phones and tablets, and in particular 'free-to-play' downloadable games, are currently leading the way in terms of monetisation. But how is it possible that a product that is free to download and play can, in fact, generate...

    Crime Boss: Rockay City Launch Trailer

    Get another look at a lot of yesterday's biggest stars.

    A launch trailer came out today for Crime Boss: Rockay City. If you don't know about this game, I can't say I really blame you. As far as I know, the only thing we heard about this game previously was when it was announced during The Game Awards last December.

    I haven't seen any news about this. I haven't seen previews about this game. In fact, they still haven't really shown off just what you're even doing in this...

  • Poll: What Platform Do you Game on the Most?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Do you prefer consoles? PC? Maybe mobile is your preferred platform?

    This month's poll is a bit generic if only because I really don't know what to ask right now and this is the easiest thing that came to mind. The question is simple: Which sort of platform do you prefer to play games on?

    Do you like playing on consoles? Do you prefer to play games on PC? What about mobile games? Maybe you prefer to spend most of your time on your phone playing this, that, or the other....
