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...

    Bethesda Announces 76 Seasons of Content and the 2020 Roadmap for Fallout 76

    That's like... 19 years of content.

    Moments ago, Bethesda announced and revealed the 2020 roadmap for what's in store for Fallout 76. Even though it's already mid-May, a roadmap of future content is never a bad idea. As part of their roadmap reveal, Bethesda announced "76 Seasons." This should be exciting news for veteran players and those who may have just started to play the game after its recent release on Steam.

    The Culling is Back for a Third Attempt at Bad Ideas

    Don't call it a comeback. No, really, don't.

    The Culling has seen its fair share of ups and even more downs. It has been created and killed off twice already in various forms. Now it's back for a third go, starting with a release on the Xbox One. A PC release of this iteration of the game is also planned, but I cannot imagine too many people will care.

    The first Culling was a battle royal game that set itself apart from the other battle royal games thanks to its focus...

    Tony Hawk is getting remastered... again.

    It has happened once before already and it will more than likely happen again in the future. However, in the here and now, it's happening for the second time. If you correctly guessed that the first two Tony Hawk games were getting remastered yet again, you are either a genius or you read the headline.

    Back in 2012, we reviewed the first attempt at a remaster for the first few Tony Hawk titles. It was called Tony Hawk's Pro Skater...
