From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

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's the start of the month of October 2022, which means it's time for a new poll of the month! This might be the first time I'm actually on the ball with getting the POTM up on the first, but it's only because I've been thinking about this one ahead of time already.

    As it's October, that means one of a few things: Tree leaves are starting to change color, pumpkin spice comes out of hibernation to be added to all the things, and horror games are very much en vogue....

    Latest Trailer for The Callisto Protocol is as Bloody as You Would Expect

    The new trailer also features a quick glimpse of Karen Fukuhara from The Boys.

    A new trailer for The Callisto Protocol went up late this week. As you have probably already come to expect from trailers and footage of this game, it's a very bloody and very gory trailer. What separates this trailer apart from some of the previous footage we've seen is the fact that this one seems to have a bigger focus on the story you will get to experience when The Callisto Protocol is released in December....

    Google Passed on an Exclusive Death Stranding Follow-up for Stadia

    Single player games are apparently dead, so believes Phil Harrison.

    According to a new report by 9to5Google, Google passed on a Stadia-exclusive follow-up to Death Stranding. It seems as though the main sticking point for the management at Stadia is the fact that this proposed game by Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions would be a strictly single player experience.

    This is a slight departure from 2019's Death Stranding. That game is very much an asynchronous multiplayer...
