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...

Xbox Confirms PlayStation 5 Releases, Diablo 4 on Game Pass, and Future Hardware Plans

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...

    Stadia Finally Branching Out to More Android Devices

    Will no longer be locked to Pixel phones.

    Since Stadia's launch, the only customers that could stream their games directly to their phones were those that owned Pixel devices. Beginning on February 20, Google will finally expand the mobile support for Stadia to include 19 additional phones that don't fall under the Stadia umbrella. The expanded roster of Android phones will include devices made by Samsung, Razer, and ASUS.

    For those who don't know, Pixel phones are the...

  • These Are the Top Steam Releases for January 2020

    These Are the Top Steam Releases for January 2020

    Plus a look at the top games of January 2010.

    Valve is once again offering fans a look at the best new releases on Steam for the preceding month. That month is, you guessed it, the month of January 2020. Once again, Valve has limited the list of "top releases" for the month to those games that were actually released in January 2020.

    Before we take a look at those games, Valve included a special bonus treat for us. The studio dove deep into their archives to show...

  • New Shenmue III 'Story Quest Pack' DLC Arrives February 18

    New Shenmue III 'Story Quest Pack' DLC Arrives February 18

    More story for those that just can't get enough.

    The overarching story in the Shenmue franchise may not be completed for a little while still. Heck, it may not ever be completed since it seems the fate of this franchise perpetually hangs by a thread.

    Shenmue III only took players to maybe Chapter 8 or 9 of a planned 11 chapter story. If nothing else, fans should be thankful that series creator Yu Suzuki scaled back the scope of the franchise. It was initially slated to...

    Metro Exodus is Back on Steam and at 40% Off

    525,600 minutes...

    Last night, perhaps when you were snuggled up under your blankets, a little miracle happened. It was in the midnight hour (ET) when Metro Exodus returned to being sold on Steam. Normally, this isn't quite the monumental occasion, but it certainly is in the case of Metro Exodus.

    It was Metro Exodus that really kicked off the season of the Epic Games Store exclusive. This was a period in which a fair number of games that were slated to be released on Steam,...

  • Final Fantasy VII Remake Opening Movie Released

    Final Fantasy VII Remake Opening Movie Released

    Released to shift focus away from ugly Carbuncle?

    The opening movie for Final Fantasy VII Remake was officially released today. This news may sound a bit familiar to some of you who caught the early leak at the tail end of 2019. It was at that point that some people got their hands on the Final Fantasy VII Remake demo and released the opening video on their personal channels.

    As expected, most of those videos were pulled from YouTube or given the ol copyright claim of...

    Starbreeze CFO Convicted of Insider Trading

    The former employee found guilty of "gross insider crimes."

    In December 2018, Swedish authorities raided the offices of Starbreeze in Stockholm. At the time, higher-ups at the studio were suspected of insider trading. The Swedish Economic Crime Authority (ECO) gave the go-ahead for the raid in order to gather additional evidence in their investigation.

    Since then, we really hadn't heard too much about the investigation. We do know that Starbreeze has certainly...

    Marvel's Avengers opened up pre-orders today across all platforms. That naturally means we get to learn about all sorts of different bundles, editions, pre-order bonuses, and the like. If you thought there would just be one basic version available, you haven't been paying attention to games released in the past decade or more.

  • Official Half-Life: Alyx Release Date Announced

    Official Half-Life: Alyx Release Date Announced

    Valve has announced a solid release date.

    Ever since Valve announced Half-Life: Alyx back in November 2019, they maintained that the game would be out at some point in March 2020. That fairly vague release window did not sway over the past four months now, which was either very reassuring that Valve Time wouldn't kick in, or anxiety inducing because you just wanted the delay announcement to come. OH GOD JUST GET IT OVER WITH ALREADY!

    Thankfully, that delay announcement...

  • GWENT: The Witcher Card Game Hits Android in March

    GWENT: The Witcher Card Game Hits Android in March

    Fans can pre-register now.

    In March, CD Projekt RED will finally get around to releasing their Android build of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game. This release comes roughly half a year after the iOS version was released or about a year and a half after the game left its early access release phase on PC. This may not be a true Solitaire like experience, but it does still involve cards and that makes it appealing to a lot of players.

    Those of you Android users who are still...
