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...

    Gambling with COVID-19


    You see it everywhere these days. You see it on the news. You know about it from talking with friends. You know about it from the radio, politicians, and medical expert. The "it" that we are talking about is none other than the global pandemic known as COVID-19.

    It is a far-reaching disease that has impacted nearly every person in the world in some way, shape, or form. COVID-19 has continued to ravage places like the United States for months now, with no real end in...

    It's been a few years, but UFC is returning from EA Sports.

    The last UFC title from EA Sports was EA Sports UFC 3, which was released back in 2018.

EA Sports UFC 4 was just revealed featuring UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and UFC welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal as the cover athletes.

    Far Cry 6 Details Leak on PSN

    Featuring Giancarlo Esposito and a young Vaas?

    Oops! It looks like the PlayStation Network let slip some details about Far Cry 6 today! Not only do we see what the cover art looks like, we get a brief mention about the story and some gameplay features included with the game.

    This is What PlayStation 5 Game Cases will Look Like

    It's a game case, not the Mona Lisa.

    Sony revealed today what the game cases for PlayStation 5 titles will look like. They showed off the case for the upcoming Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the PS5 exclusive coming from Insomniac Games.


    Having seen a few in my day I can confirm that yeah, that is indeed a game case. The white and black design on the top banner area really seems to jive well with their general theme for the PS5 design. And much like the PlayStation...

    Blizzard to Drop Fee for Changing Gender in World of Warcraft

    Change will come with Shadowlands.

    Currently, players need to plunk down a not-insignificant amount of money if they wish to change the gender and appearance of their character in World of Warcraft. That current fee is $15 (USD), but it will soon be made free. This is according to a new report from Eurogamer that says Blizzard will make this change when the Shadowlands expansion releases later this year.

    In an interview with Eurogamer, Blizzard executive producer John...

    Well, it's just one day off of a Halloween release, but still.

    Details Dished on WWE 2K Battlegrounds

    Details reveal game modes, pricing, and gameplay elements.

    In April, we first brought you word that 2K was doing away with this year's annual iteration of the woefully broken and busted WWE 2K franchise. This year, the studio has instead opted for a more arcadey approach to the genre with WWE 2K Battlegrounds. While this may not be what fans of the more sim focused series necessarily wanted, it is a good opportunity for the yearly franchise to take a break and re-tool itself for 2021....

    Mafia: Definitive Edition Delayed Until Late September

    Gameplay reveal coming July 22.

    Given that we have not yet seen any sort of gameplay for Mafia: Definitive Edition, it should not come as any surprise that the game has been delayed. The lack of gameplay was especially concerning as the game was originally slated to be released on August 28. It was just revealed to be pushed back to a September 25 release instead. The reason? Yep, it's our old pal COVID-19 showing up again.
