Streamers and fans are calling for a boycott against MUT pack purchases.
A story from Polygon sheds light on what fans and streamers for Madden NFL 23 are calling a "Pack Strike." Through the power of social media and Twitch, the hashtag #PACKSTRIKE started to gain momentum earlier this week. It began when the biggest Madden streamers and "influencers" said that they are not going to purchase premium currency for use in Madden Ultimate Team (MUT).

The first teaser trailer will be shown at the convention. Specifically, it will air at 4PM (ET) on October 6. Those in attendance will get to see the trailer only if you are in view of the Empire Stage at that time.... -

Valve Launches New Steam Charts Page
Want to know what the most-played and top-selling games are on Steam?
Valve just launched a new feature for Steam that they're calling Steam Charts. This is not to be confused with the already existing third-party site, Steam Charts.
In a new Steam blog post, Valve details what Steam Charts is all about. In short, it's an updated version of the old "Stats" section on Steam. Now, the new Charts page will give you a better look at what the hottest games are on... -

Overwatch 2 Framerate Cap Upped to 600 FPS
This is all due to the power of the upcoming RTX 4090.
When Overwatch 2 comes out, you will be able to run it at 600 FPS if you want (and can). This is apparently thanks to Nvidia teaming up with Blizzard on Nvidia Reflex support for Overwatch 2, which subsequently allowed the studios to increase the cap. The two companies are taking that slow and pathetic 400 FPS cap from the first Overwatch and cranking it up another 200 FPS.
Nvidia confirmed that framerates of over... -

Cyberpunk 2077 Sees Massive Player Surge
The surge can probably be most attributed to the new anime.
Cyberpunk 2077 came out at the tail end of 2020. It was met with some less than favorable reviews from critics and even worse reviews by fans. It was buggy and a lot of the mechanics simply felt incomplete. Plus, the less said about the last-gen release the better. CD Projekt Red has been working on bringing the game up to snuff in the months since and it seems like their efforts are finally starting to pay off for some.... -

Offensive Messages Sent in Children's MMO Not from Disgruntled Employee
The messages were coming from outside the building!
Last week, the typically kid friendly MMO called Wizard101 turned into a real minefield of vulgar server messages. Players that were online on Friday, September 16 saw several server-wide messages that included jokes, swearing, and even complaints about the poor pay at developer KingsIsle. That fact that only KingsIsle staff should have access to this broadcast system and the messages about poor pay led many to believe that the messages... -

Cheat Maker is Countersuing Bungie
The countersuit claims Bungie violated DMCA.
Cheat maker and provider AimJunkies has filed a countersuit against Destiny 2 developer Bungie. This is just the latest step in a long-running legal battle between Bungie and cheat producers such as AimJunkies. This particular tale began in 2021 when Bungie filed a copyright infringement lawsuit against AimJunkies.
That lawsuit was dismissed just this April. The ruling judge said that Bungie had failed to prove AimJunkies infringed... -

Ted Lasso and AFC Richmond Coming to FIFA 23
The fictional character and fictional team are really being added to FIFA 23.
With this being the last official FIFA release from Electronic Arts, I get the feeling that they're just kind of going "the heck with it, let's go for broke." Today, EA and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced that the fictional character of Ted Lasso and his equally fictional team, AFC Richmond, will be included in FIFA 23.
Ted Lasso is an Apple TV show that debuted in... -

Twitch Flatly Refuses to Increase Streamer Share of Revenues
You'll get 50% and you'll like it.
Just yesterday, Twitch scored a few brownie points when they said they were going to ban some gambling on the streaming platform. It wasn't much but at least it was something positive. Today, whatever positivity remained was tossed out the window when Twitch flatly refused to increase streamer revenue share.
A petition signed by over 22,000 Twitch streamers and viewers sought to increase the subscription revenue share from 50/50 to 70/30... -

Twitch to Ban Some Gambling but Not All
There is still much room for improvement here.
For some time now, gambling on Twitch lived in this nebulous grey zone where Twitch staff often turned a blind eye to it so long as certain restrictions were adhered to. Things such as referral codes to sites that include gambling were verboten, but streamers often found ways around this while they gambled on stream.
Allowing gambling on the platform has often been hotly debated from both streamers and viewers alike. Now,... -

Portal with RTX Announced
It's Portal but now with ray-traced cake.
Nvidia's GTC keynote earlier today contained news about the new (and very expensive) 40-series of RTX cards. In addition, the company also announced Portal with RTX. As you can probably assume from its name, this is an RTX-enhanced version of the classic puzzle game from Valve.
Portal with RTX includes updated visuals along with real-time ray tracing. It seems as though a bulk of the grunt work on Portal with RTX is being handled... -

Nvidia Announces 4090 and 4080 Desktop GPUs at Outrageous Prices
You didn't want that spare arm or leg anyway, right?

With the new generation comes new advancements such as DLSS 3. All of the newness comes at a very hefty price though.
