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 ...

    Windows 11 Announced and Set to Release this Fall as a Free Upgrade

    Windows 11 release date, price, and other details revealed.

    Well look at me with egg on my face. Earlier this month, Microsoft announced that they were going to show off the "next generation of Windows" during an event set for today (June 24th). I was so sure that it was just going to be an update to Windows 10 because, well, Microsoft said that Windows 10 was going to be the "last" version of Windows that they release.

    Well look who was wrong. This...

    Minecraft is Far from Dead and this Sonic DLC Proves It

    How well can a block do a spin dash?

    Despite what one mentally stunted individual might be saying on Twitter these days, Minecraft is very much alive and doing quite well for itself. In fact, the game has never been more popular. It's also now the only place where you will be able to celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog's 30th anniversary in style (since Sega themselves won't have anything new until 2022).

    Mojang and Sega have partnered up to create a special piece of Sonic themed...

    Valve Again Cracks Down on Region Hopping to Buy Cheap Steam Games

    Users are now limited to one region change every three months.

    Valve has now made it even more difficult for super-savvy consumers to region hop on Steam in an effort to buy Steam games at a cheaper price.

    Because of how Steam has individual regional pricing on games, set by game publishers, this often means that the prices of games in some regions is significantly lower than what they would be in your native lands. Regions were games are cheaper is usually in line with...

    Bethesda and Nvidia have partnered to offer an exclusive DOOM Eternal GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Limited Edition Demon Slayer Bundle. I feel like at least a few of those words could have been cut out and still made sense, but what do I know about making titles?

    This bundle includes DOOM Eternal, various physical items, and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti graphics card.
