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...

    Call of Duty Warzone Hacked Lobbies Offer Instant Max Weapon Upgrades

    This will probably be fixed soon.

    It looks like there is a new server-wide hack or exploit going around in Call of Duty: Warzone at present. Players have reported joining hacked lobbies in various Warzone game types that will instantly level up their weapon to max level (70) after earning just one kill.

    According to a post on Reddit, streamer Dr Disrespect encountered this hacked lobby weapon boost earlier today. Another streamer, TimTheTatman also found himself in one...

    Rockstar is Offering Another Free Game to Owners of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy

    Rockstar is feeling particularly giving. Tis the season.

    Though it has been updated with at least one major patch, the current state of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition still isn't particularly great. As a way of apologizing to fans, at least those on the PC, Rockstar Games offered up free copies of the older, non-definitive editions for each game to those that purchased The Trilogy.

    I guess that wasn't enough because Rockstar is now offering all...

    Get Used to PC Games Releasing at $70

    It all started when the next-gen consoles were released in 2020. Ever since the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and the PlayStation 5 were released, more and more game releases have been priced at $70 (USD). However, these prices seem to be limited to the next-gen experiences and the term "next-gen tax" was coined. For a while there, it seemed as though the "typical" $60 prices would stick around for older-generation consoles as well as PC. Unfortunately, with the recent release...

    Battlefield 2042 May Not Get Any New Content Until March

    This leak comes from well-known data miner temporyal.

    The bad news that is the literal everything surrounding Battlefield 2042 will continue to get that much worse if the latest leak is to be believed. To say that the launch of the anticipated latest release in the Battlefield franchise was a bit lacking would be an understatement. Unfortunately, it looks like the game will have to limp along until at least March 2022.

    Ubisoft is Bleeding Employees in Wake of Company-wide Issues

    Numerous employees are quitting due to low pay, the lack of change, and other issues.

    People quitting their jobs in search of more fulfilling careers really isn't all that uncommon here in late 2021. We have seen it across multiple industries and workplaces as workers start to realize that they're worth more than the bare minimum many employers offer them.

    And while this is happening within the gaming industry as well, it seems to be happening at a much higher rate at...

    New Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin Footage Revealed

    New gameplay and cutscenes were shown off.

    There was apparently some sort of an anniversary livestream recently for Final Fantasy? I don't know anything about it. I'm just relaying the information that Square Enix is telling me in this press release.

    This anniversary stream allegedly had some new gameplay and cutscenes shown off for Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin. You know, the CHAOS game. The last we heard and saw about this game is that it will be released...

    Halo Infinite Glitch Enables Couch Co-op with a Catch

    There's a way to enable couch co-op in Halo Infinite, but it would be wise to wait.

    For most fans, the fact that Halo Infinite released without any sort of campaign co-op was quite disappointing. 343 Industries did say that co-op would be coming alongside Season 2 of the game, which may not be released until at least May 2022.

    However, there is a way to "play" Halo Infinite with local co-op thanks to a little workaround. This was discovered and posted to the...

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Devs Double Down and then Backtrack on NFT Idea

    Yet another company has backtracked on using NFTs after seeing the immense public backlash.

    On Wednesday, GSC Game World announced that they will hold an auction to win an NFT that would eventually lead to the owner becoming an in-game NPC for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl called a "metahuman." On Thursday (that's today), GSC Game World announced that they would not include any NFT related items in connection with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl.

    DEAR GOD MAKE IT STOP!

    GSC Game World, the developer behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl, just announced that the game will be supported by a variety of stupid NFTs when it is released in 2022. Details are relatively scarce right now, but the studio did reveal some information on at least one of the NFTs.

    This particular NFT will allow the owner to become the "first ever metahuman" in the game. This is just fancy marketing speak to say that they will...

    First Balance and Content Update in Over a Decade Coming to Diablo II

    Between all of the harassment and union-busting, the developers found time to create some new content.

    The last balancing-focused patch for Diablo II was released on March 23, 2010. In early 2022, the first balancing and content update in almost 12 years will be released for Diablo II: Resurrected. That 2010 update brought Diablo II up to version 1.13c. This was the foundation from which Diablo II: Resurrected was created.

    Blizzard announced that they will release a new...

  • 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....
