    Is Ubisoft Planning a Return to Steam?

    Recent behind the scenes changes suggest this may be a possibility.

    In 2019, the final Ubisoft game on Steam was released. That game was Trials Rising. Since then, if you were a PC owner and a fan of Ubisoft's output, you were only able to purchase their titles from their first-party Ubisoft Connect or through everyone's favorite storefront, the Epic Games Store. As the months turned to years, it seemed like Ubisoft's return to Steam just wasn't going to happen.

    This week,...

McDonald's, at least in Great Britain, is offering one lucky winner of a Facebook competition the chance to place their buttocks onto the off yellow and black padding of the McCrispy gaming chair. This is all being done to celebrate the launch of a new "chicken burger" that just also...
