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...

    Frogwares Details Why The Sinking City Mysteriously Disappeared from All Storefronts

    Here's a hint: Nacon, their licensee, has something to do with it.

    The Sinking City, the Lovecraftian inspired horror/investigation game that we talked rather favorably about in our review, has been missing from multiple storefronts. You are not able to find the game right now for sale through Steam, Epic Games Store, the Xbox One, nor even the PlayStation 4. A statement published today by the game's developer, Frogwares, details just what happened.

    Tiananmen Square Footage Removed from Call of Duty Trailer

    Activision bending the knee? What? No. Never!

    The first trailer for Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War was blocked in China and then later edited from every other region because it contained roughly one second of footage from the Tiananmen Square protests from 1989. This is when the Chinese government had a big uh "crackdown" on pro-democracy protesters. That is to say, they murdered the fuck out of their citizens, or made them "disappear," and attacked them with...

    Rumor: Nintendo to Release Switch Pro Model in 2021

    A year later and the rumor returns.

    In early 2019, there was a rumor that Nintendo was going to release not one, but two new Switch models. One was supposedly going to be a "Pro" variant of the base Switch model. The other would be a cheaper release that had a few cut features. At least part of that rumor came true with the release of the Nintendo Switch Lite.

    Sadly, the rumor of the Pro model did not pan out and the rumor seemed to have fizzled out. That is,...

    In First Hearing, Apple Wins Right to Remove Fortnite from Store but Not Unreal Engine

    The first battle in a long war has reached its conclusion.

    This past week, Epic had filed for a temporary restraining order in order to prevent Apple from terminating all Epic developer accounts. This was a reactionary response from Apple after Epic Games filed a lawsuit against Apple for kicking Fortnite from the App Store when Epic decided they did not want to play by the rules.

    This ban against Unreal Engine would have effectively barred all Unreal Engine developers...

    Nvidia Ampere to Use 12-pin Power Adapter

    And up to 850W power supply requirement.

    Those of you who have picked up a modern video card in the past several years have probably already had to deal with the dual 8-pin power connectors. Nvidia has reportedly been working on a new 12-pin PCIe power adapter for their upcoming Ampere (30xx series) lineup of cards. This will take that existing 2x8-pin connector and shrink it down to a single 12-pin connector.
