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...

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 ...

    Fans Rightfully Angered by Pathetic Warcraft 3: Reforged Launch

    Where to even begin.

    Yesterday, Blizzard launched the somewhat awaited Warcraft 3: Reforged, a remaster of the original Warcraft but with enhanced visuals. In what should have been a day of joy amongst fans was instead a day of anger, disappointment, and harsh criticism from the community.

    The most apparent issue with the game are seen in the blatant visual downgrades from what was shown off in hands-on playable builds from the past year. Multiple discussions about this...

    BioShock and Call of Cthulhu Among the Free Games for February 2020

    Here are your free Games with Gold and PlayStation Plus offerings.

    Both Microsoft and Sony announced what their "free" games will be for the month of February 2020. I say "free" like that because, as we all know, you do have to be a subscriber to either Xbox Live, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, or PlayStation Plus in order to gain access to the titles.

    With that said, let's get down to business.

    Microsoft announced that Xbox One owners will get...

    Criteria for choosing a free slot machine with bonus rounds

    The purpose of slot machines is not to enrich a player for a long period. Quite the contrary. Therefore, the game of slot machines should be considered only as entertainment, but not as a stable income in any way. Of course, every player wants for entertainment the slot machine game which “gives” more than “takes”. So that the charm of a possible big win never goes away. Players choose slot machines, guided by various criteria. Today we will try to group all the paramet...

    Rockstar Games Set a Bunch of Sales Records, Offers Freebies as Thanks

    They made bank, but don't tell the tax man.

    Take-Two sent out a boastful press release earlier today on behalf of Rockstar Games. Perhaps you've heard of them? In it they offered high praise for the sales accomplishments of Rockstar Games.

    Apparently Rockstar broke some sales records thanks to a couple of games called Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2. Perhaps you've heard of those?

    Over the course of the past decade, Rockstar says that Grand Theft...

    40 days and 0 games.

    Today marks the 70th day that the Google Stadia was "released" to early adopters and man, what an absolute mess it's been. Even when compared to most other Google launch disasters, the Stadia launch has been exceptionally bad. A post on the r/Stadia by user Gizoogle outlines just how much Google has completely bungled the launch of this new platform.

    The Reddit post in question has already surpassed 8,600 upvotes in the Stadia section and...

    EA and DICE announced today that they will reveal the sixth chapter in their ever ongoing Tides of War content for Battlefield V. This new chapter is appropriately called Into the Jungle and it takes us, you guessed it, into some dense jungle environments. Well, there's at least one dense jungle environment.

    Season 2 DLC Roster Revealed for Samurai Shodown

    This new season adds in four new fighters.

    Throughout February, four new fighters will be added to Samurai Shodown courtesy of the second season of DLC content. Yes, you will need to pay for these extra characters as that's usually how these things go.

    I wasn't told the price of this second season of DLC, but I'm assuming the new Season Pass will retail for $19.99 (USD) just as the first Season Pass retailed for. If you decide to purchase these new characters separately,...
