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...

    Life is Strange: Remastered Collection Dated for February 1

    A solid release date is now known once more.

    In August, Square Enix passed along word that Life is Strange: Remastered Collection was being delayed. The game was originally slated to arrive on September 30, 2021 but was pushed to a nebulous early 2022 release window. Today, Square Enix says that a solid release date was once again selected: February 1, 2022.

    This collection includes both Life is Strange Remastered and Life is Strange: Before the Storm Remastered. It will...

    Actraiser Renaissance is a Remaster of the Classic Action Title

    This is a remaster of the original game from 1991.

    It's been 30 years since the North American release of the original ActRaiser for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES for you youngsters). The original game was a solid 2D action platforming affair that also included a fair bit of town-building simulation.

    Last night, Square Enix announced Actraiser Renaissance, a remastered release of the classic game that will be coming to the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4,...

    Miyamoto Announces Star-Filled Cast for Mario Movie

    This all feels like a weird fever dream.

    When you think of Mario's voice, the first person that comes to mind is none other than the legendary Charles Martinet. He's been the iconic voice of Mario for decades now. Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto is having none of that! None!

    In the future, when you think of Mario's voice, you're going to think of Chris Pratt. Yes, Chris Pratt. Luigi? Charlie Day. Bowser? Jack Black.

    They're just too busy with other games.

    In a recent livestream, Respawn's Jason Garza says that the studio isn't working on Titanfall 3, nor are they working on any new Titanfall 2 content. Garza flat out says that "there's nothing there. We've got too many other games in the works right now."

    He did at least later clarify that the team at Respawn are still investigating hacking and other vulnerabilities in Titanfall 2.

Not only is ray tracing a PC-only feature but AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) is also PC-only.
