For better or worse, Duke Nukem Forever sure is a video game. At one point, however, it was an almost completely different game. A version of Duke Nukem Forever that was shown at E3 2001 ended up being nothing like the final release that Gearbox put out in 2011. If you need some sort of a reminder of 2011's release, I did write a review for Duke Nukem Forever (the images are long gone). At the time, I found it to be rather mediocre as did...

Volition is Shutting Down Effective Immediately
After 30 years, the studio is being shut down.

Hunt: Showdown Servers Maliciously Attacked
The attacks happened during a special in-game event.
In March, Crytek kicked off a special Traitor's Moon event in Hunt: Showdown, the studio's popular PvPvE game. This event would reward players with some legendary skins, provided you played enough to earn enough points to redeem for said skins. Problem was that the event was plagued by constant server woes.
Crytek deployed several patches, hotfixes, and statements about the situation. They apologized to their fans for... -

This isn't going over well with fans.

According to their own funding tracker, the team has already amassed over $457 million (USD) in funding. Again, the game is still not finished yet.

Noclip Gives Us a Long Look at Canceled Half-Life 2: Return to Ravenholm
This is the longest look yet at the canceled Half-Life 2 spin-off from Arkane and Valve.

Development on the game began at Junction Point Studios between 2005 and 2007 with a team led by Warren Spector. The idea was to create a spin-off episode that would explain the backstory of the trap filled Ravenholm and Father Grigori.

by Shawn ZipayGet that Premium Edition and play three days early!
Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.
Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!33.33%1I'm indifferent to the whole idea.33.33%1I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier.
