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...

    Marvel's Avengers is About to Make Level Grinding More of a Slog

    How do we retain players? I got it!

    On March 18, Marvel's Avengers will be updated in a number of ways. That is the date in which Hawkeye will be added to the roster. It will also be the date in which the game is given some next-gen improvements. That's the good news. The bad news here is that March 18 is also the date in which the team at Crystal Dynamics and Square Enix will revise the amount of experience needed in order to level up.

    Will you prefer the more recent offerings of the PlayStation and Nintendo 64? Or do you prefer the real old-school stuff found in the 3rd and 2nd generations?

    Valheim Surpasses 5 Million Copies Sold

    This Viking boat has no brakes.

    A new status update from the team at Iron Gate delivers a new update on the amount of copies sold their open-world survival title, Valheim. The last update that we personally shared about the game came in mid-February. It was at that time that we shared word that the Early Access Steam release had hit 2 million copies sold. At that time, that figure happened just five days after the game was released into Early Access.

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare Version - Where Did it Come From?


    Being a Call of Duty fan has been one hell of a ride over the years. There are so many good memories of the game with some epic scenes, but are they going too far by making the game into more of a story narrative and adding what seems to be almost an attempt to make the game into a 3 in 1.

    In the Infinite Warfare version, the game has certainly changed in a lot of ways. With the way it is driven by a story rather than just pure action seems to have slowed down the game slightly....

    Masters of striking while the iron is tepid.

    The Sinking City Devs Claim Publisher Hacked Their Game and Uploaded it to Steam

    A tale of developer vs. publisher.

    This past Friday, The Sinking City was released on Steam seemingly without the consent of Frogwares, the game's developer. This was, at the time, the latest in the ongoing legal battle between Frogwares and publisher Nacon. Frogwares has been actively telling fans not to purchase the current Steam release of The Sinking City because Nacon put it up without permission.

    They said that they would have more to say on the subject "soon."...
