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...

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...

    Minecraft continues to branch out into other genres and games.

    Mojang is no stranger to trying new things with the Minecraft franchise. There are novels, children's books, merchandise, and all matter of games.

    Not that it matters. The game is going to look great everywhere.

    At the recent Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase, Microsoft and Turn 10 Studios announced a new Forza Motorsport game that is set to arrive spring 2023. It's a follow-up to 2017's Forza Motorsport 7 but seems to just be called Forza Motorsport without a number.

  • Redfall Campaign Progress is Limited Only to Host in Co-op

    Redfall Campaign Progress is Limited Only to Host in Co-op

    Why? Why is this still a thing for co-op focused games in 2022?

    Redfall is an upcoming vampire slaying game that is still in development at Arkane Austin. In the few times that it has been shown off, an emphasis has been placed on the cooperative experience. It was initially shown off with a trailer that was very much like, "this is a co-op game through and through!"

  • Fallout 76 Returns to Pittsburgh in Next Major Content Update

    Fallout 76 Returns to Pittsburgh in Next Major Content Update

    I can personally vouch that the depiction of Pittsburgh in this game is exactly like the real city.

    The Pitt was one of the expansions released for Fallout 3 back in 2009. It took players to the ruins of a little city called Pittsburgh located in the state of Pennsylvania. The developers at Bethesda must enjoy Pittsburgh a whole heck of a lot because we're going back there in Fallout 76.

    This September, Fallout 76 will let players venture beyond the borders of Appalachia...
