Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

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...

Xbox Confirms PlayStation 5 Releases, Diablo 4 on Game Pass, and Future Hardware Plans

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 ...
 

Embracer Lays Off 97 Employees from Eidos; Cancels New Deus Ex

Embracer's rampage continues.

Eidos-Montreal, a development studio currently under the Embracer umbrella, made the sad announcement that employees at the studio were being laid off. Eidos took to social media to confirm that 97 people have been let go "from development teams, administration, and support services".

The studio says that "global economic context, the challenges of our industry, and the comprehensive restructuring announced by Embracer have...

  • The Best Gaming System Upgrades

    The Best Gaming System Upgrades

    A question that is often asked, perhaps more than anything else for new and experienced gamers alike, is where should I start when looking to upgrade my gaming system and what will give me the best bang for my buck in terms of a performance upgrade. For the most part, it’ll ultimately come down to what you’re using your gaming system for – if you’re sticking to games that have lower system requirements or essentially none like growing genres in online betting and gambling...

  • Kojima Doesn't Like Adding 'Director's Cut' to Death Stranding Director's Cut

    Man, what?

    Recently, Sony and Kojima Productions announced Death Stranding Director's Cut for the PlayStation 5. This was already rather confusing since the game is the brainchild of Hideo Kojima, so how could this new release be a Director's Cut of any sort? Well, it gets even more confusing after Kojima expressed his annoyance with adding Director's Cut to something that isn't actually cut.

    That seems to make sense seeing as how Death Stranding Director's Cut is actually...

  • Respawn Has Only 'One or Two' Staff Still Working on Titanfall

    Respawn Has Only 'One or Two' Staff Still Working on Titanfall

    Everyone else is working on Apex Legends.

    The first Titanfall has been virtually unplayable for weeks now thanks to the ongoing DDoS attacks by someone. Recently, Titanfall 2 has been suffering much the same fate. In fact, the attacks on Titanfall 2 really started to ramp up following the attacks on Apex Legends. At least Titanfall 2 still has a single player component that can be played, but those aching for some Titanfall multiplayer are SOL.

    Despite this, Respawn recently...

The development studio confirmed that they will have an invincibility toggle that you can switch on whenever you want. This will allow you to beat the game, or difficult sections, without the fear of dying.

    The studio made this announcement via Twitter. They say that "if you beat Psychonauts 2 with the invincibility toggle...

  • Japanese Talent Agency to Blame for Lack of Judgment on PC

    Japanese Talent Agency to Blame for Lack of Judgment on PC

    Sega is unable to reach an agreement with the talent agency.

    If you found it weird and annoying that Judgment wasn't coming to PC, you certainly weren't alone. The game was released for the PlayStation 4 in 2019 and came to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and even Stadia in April 2021. At the time, Sega said they had no plans for a PC release.

    A little while later, Sega announced a sequel to Judgment called Lost Judgment. This too was also planned for most platforms but...

  • Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection Finally Gets Graphical Options on PC

    Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection Finally Gets Graphical Options on PC

    It literally took over a month to implement this.

    Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection for the PC has been kind of a big mess ever since its release back on June 9th. Sure, you're getting three classic games for $39.99 (USD), but that's kind of where the positives ended. There was no way to adjust graphical settings such as game resolution, within the game itself. You had to edit a file outside of the game first and then launch it.

    For a game coming from a fairly major publisher,...

    Resident Evil Village Crack Eliminates Hitching and Framerate Drops on PC

    If you guessed that terribly implemented DRM was to blame, you'd be correct.

    If you have played the PC version of Resident Evil Village, you probably encountered a few performance issues that are pretty common. If you haven't encountered any performance issues, you should consider yourself extremely lucky and the exception to the norm.

    See, Resident Evil Village has some very noticeable framerate hitches whenever you kill most any enemy. Given that there are a lot of enemies...

    Another next-gen release at a premium price.

    Get ready for another next-gen EA Sports title being offered up for a next-gen price. This weekend, the Euro 2020 final matchup took place between England and Italy where Italy took home the W and England became super racist. But hey, what better place to unveil a new entry in an annual soccer franchise than one of the biggest European sporting events in the world?

    Death Stranding Director's Cut Launches September 24

    There's a lot of new content that they're adding.

    Despite its goofy name, Death Stranding Director's Cut looks kind of amazing. A new trailer for the game was released today during the PlayStation State of Play stream. With the new trailer comes the announcement of a September 24 release date on the PlayStation 5.

    I admit that I was skeptical of this Director's Cut at first, but after seeing the new trailer (seen below), I came away pretty damn impressed. This trailer...

    The follow-up to 2018's hit PSVR release was just announced.

    Sony and Polyarc just announced Moss: Book 2 today during Sony's latest State of Play. This is a sequel to the 2018 PlayStation VR title that offered a blend of platforming, puzzle solving, and combat.

    We don't know a terrible lot about this sequel just yet. We also do not know if a release on non-PlayStation VR headsets is in the works. The first game came out on PCVR a few months after its PlayStation VR debut,...
