Band Together in Terror: The Outlast Trials Review

The Outlast Trials proves that survival horror can be more fun with friends.

The Outlast Trials is a four-player PvE game taking place in the Cold War era. The game's opening moments and lore paint a gruesome and wicked scene that will be familiar to series veterans but disquieting to those new to the Outlast universe. Players work their way through a series of experiments, each of which plays out on various large maps like a police station, a courthouse, a carnival, and more. The g...

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...

    Xbox Music Offering 15-Song Trial on Xbox One, No Ad-Supported Version

    On top of the monthly subscription for Xbox Live Gold, you will also need to pony up $9.99 (USD) a month for a Music Pass if you want to hear some sweet tunes.

    On the PC, there is an ad-supported version of the Music Pass that lets you listen to music with an occasional ad interjected here and there, much like Spotify does. On the Xbox One, there will be no such free ad-supported version. You either pay or you don't get to use it, it's as simple as that.

    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....

    Valve to Announce Steam Machine Partners at CES 2014

    Sure, you may have already checked out the Steam Machine prototype machine, but that won't be the only hardware configuration for the device. Valve is still gathering hardware partners for their devices and are poised to announce who these partners are when CES 2014 rolls around.

    Valve's Greg Coomer spills the beans.

    Valve Will Not Make Any SteamOS Exclusive Titles

    Worried about the totally non-existent Half-Life 3 being a SteamOS exclusive title just to push some hardware or new software? Don't worry, because that isn't going to happen.

    Valve's Greg Coomer gave IGN the specifics on why Valve just isn't going to do that to the gaming community (again).
    "You won’t see an exclusive killer app for SteamOS from us. We’re not going to be doing that kind of thing." This will also apply to third-party titles, Valve’s Anna Sweet

    Valve's Steam Machine - First Look and Hands-On Impressions

    Recently, The Verge had some alone time with Valve's upcoming Steam Machine console and the new Steam Controller.
    Valve's steel and aluminum chassis measures just over 12 inches on a side and is 2.9 inches tall, making it a little bigger than an Xbox 360 and smaller than any gaming PC of its ilk. And yet the box manages to fit a giant Nvidia GeForce GTX Titan graphics card and a full desktop CPU — and keep those parts quiet and cool — without cramming them in like a jigsaw puzzle. 2

    Silenced QBU-88 in Battlefield 4 will Mute the Entire Server

    Yep, it looks like another major bug somehow slipped through the cracks at DICE and EA for Battlefield 4. It seems as though if anybody in the server equips a silencer on the QBU-88, everybody in the server will lose their sound.

    How exactly does something like this make it into a post-beta release?...
