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...

  • E3 2021 is Going All Digital

    E3 2021 is Going All Digital

    At least they're planning something this year.

    In 2020, E3 decided they weren't going to hold their annual event due to COVID-19. Pandemics, am I right? That was probably the smartest idea they've had in a while. What wasn't all that great was the fact that they did not have any sort of digital substitute lined up to replace it. This led to a long, drawn-out Summer where every publisher seemingly had their own event on whatever day and time they wanted.

    That kind of sucked....

  • Review: The Medium (PC)

    Review: The Medium (PC)

    Trauma begets trauma.

    Bloober Team was one of my favorite developers for a while there. They came out with Layers of Fear, which I largely adored. They also released Observer, which was a solid psychological horror set in a cyberpunk style universe. They had a couple of minor missteps with Layers of Fear 2 and Blair Witch, but I still held them in high regard. Now, they just released The Medium and man does it ever feel like a major step backwards for the company. If The Medium is...

    Prince of Persia Remake is Delayed... Again

    Delayed for the second time.

    Ubisoft has been remaking Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time for a little while now. It has, unfortunately, been delayed once again. It was already pushed back once from being released on January 20, 2021 to March 18, 2021. This new delay pushed aside that March 18th release date to a new and unspecified date.

    The first delay this year was attributed to difficulties working during a pandemic. Of course, the pandemic is still going on, which...

    BioWare is Cutting Back on Mass Effect Butt Shots

    Cutting back the "ass" in Mass Effect.

    There will be a lot less emphasis on butts in the Mass Effect Legendary Edition remasters. In speaking with Metro, character environment director Kevin Meek said that BioWare is taking steps to deemphasize the T&A in some scenes. If you were someone that played the original releases, you may recall some specific scenes that had camera angles focused on mostly ass. Expect that to change in Legendary Edition, at least to some degree....

    Star Citizen's First Dynamic Event Includes Epic Space Battles

    For real this time.

    Back in the far off time of late December 2020, Cloud Imperium Games said that they were totally going to do their first ever live event in Star Citizen. Well, that didn't happen. It was delayed because it's Star Citizen and delays are just expected for everything. You know it, I know it, my pets know it.

    Fortunately, the first ever dynamic event launches today in Star Citizen. It only took a bit over a month to come to fruition, but players can now...

    No, the big news today is that Activision Blizzard confirmed that neither Overwatch 2 nor Diablo IV will be out this year. This little tidbit was...
