Counter-Strike 2 is Out Now

Counter-Strike is dead, long live Counter-Strike!

True to Valve tradition, today's release is actually a little bit later than initially expected. During its initial announcement in March, Valve said Counter-Strike 2 would be out in summer. It is now fall, but they only missed...

Volition is Shutting Down Effective Immediately

After 30 years, the studio is being shut down.

Volition formed in 1993, with their first game coming in 1995. That game was none other than the widely acclaimed Descent, a first-person spaceship shooter. Volition went on to make several more games in the Descent franchise. Volition also created the PlayStation 2 RPG Summoner. They created Red Faction and several sequels. They also created the Saints Row franchise, up to and including the latest franchise reboot title, aptly named Saints...

    Microsoft is Also Looking into Creating Metaverse Apps for Xbox

    Metaverse (noun): A VR space in which users can interact with a computer-generated environment and other users.

    Apparently Mark Zuckerberg isn't the only one looking to get into this whole "metaverse" thing. Microsoft just announced a metaverse for meetings via Microsoft Teams. The company doesn't plan to stop there, however, as they're also looking to expand into gaming-focused metaverses with Xbox.

    In speaking with Bloomberg TV, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella...

    Blizzard Forms a World of Warcraft Community Council

    It's like "we're listening" but under a fancy name.

    Blizzard devs that are still actively working on World of Warcraft just announced a new initiative today. It's an initiative that will hopefully put more power into the hands of the community and will perhaps allow the fans to shape how content is created or even what content is created for their favorite MMO.

    Blizzard is calling this community push the World of Warcraft Community Council. They say that this...

    You'll be able to save even more space if you don't care about the campaign.

    Call of Duty: Vanguard will be released on November 5, 2021, which is just four short days away now. We knew that the install size for Vanguard would be "up to 50% smaller" than prior releases, but it wasn't until today that we get a much clearer picture as to what that actually means.

    Activision pushed out a new blog post that details the PC system requirements for Call of Duty: Vanguard....

    Nvidia Released a Battlefield 2042 Trailer Showcasing DLSS, Ray Tracing, and Bad Framerates

    Maybe this trailer wasn't the best idea from any of the parties involved?

    The recent trailers for Battlefield 2042 have been real hit or miss. Today's technical showcase video that Nvidia and DICE put out is a bit on the miss side of things.

    Today's latest trailer shows off some of the PC-exclusive features that will be available to those with the still impossible to find high-end Nvidia cards. Battlefield 2042 will support Nvidia DLSS, Nvidia Reflex, and even ray tracing....

    PAX South is No More

    The annual event has come to an end for the foreseeable future.

    The crew that runs the annual gaming-themed conventions known as PAX have just announced some unfortunate news. For now and the foreseeable future, PAX South will no longer take place in any capacity.

    While it seems as though complications from COVID-19 can be given a big part of the blame, there were other factors that went into this decision. Unlike the other PAX events, such as PAX East and PAX West, PAX...

    Amazon Fixes New World Chat Exploit that Allowed Users to Crash the Game

    A link is just a link, except when it's in New World chat.
    Amazon Games has fixed an exploit in their global chat system that would allow some users to send messages that could potentially crash game clients for other users. A new exploit found that users were able to send malicious messages that contained links. Once clicked the links would either show disruptive images or hidden code that could crash the game.

    At least until the company improves.

    Activision Blizzard head honcho, boss, and CEO Bobby Kotick has requested that his salary be significantly cut until such a time as the company makes significant enough changes to work culture. This comes at a time where the company is dealing with a lawsuit from the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing.

    Literally, that's their new name.

    Facebook is no more! That's the good news here. The bad news is that the social media giant hasn't been shutdown or disbanded because of any fallout from the literally everything involving that company over the years. No, instead the company will now be called Meta.

    Yes, Meta. Facebook is now Meta.

  • Poll: Are You a Fan of Paying More to Play Early?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Get 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!

    I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.
