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...

President and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Jim Ryan, announced the layoffs to the public today. The public statement came after an email was sent to all employees informing them of the layoffs. From Ryan's...
 

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 ...
 

Embracer Lays Off 97 Employees from Eidos; Cancels New Deus Ex

Embracer's rampage continues.

Eidos-Montreal, a development studio currently under the Embracer umbrella, made the sad announcement that employees at the studio were being laid off. Eidos took to social media to confirm that 97 people have been let go "from development teams, administration, and support services".

    Deliver Us the Moon Update Turns on RTX Features

    Real-time raytracing added to the game in the latest update.

    A new update for Deliver Us the Moon, was released that should make RTX video card owners rather happy. The new update incorporated new real-time ray tracing support for this sci-fi focused adventure. In addition to the lovely ray tracing, the game also includes global illumination lighting. All in all, this should make for a real nice looking game for those with the hardware to push it to the max.

    PSA: Holiday Sales are Live on Steam and Epic Games Store

    You knew this was coming.

    It's that time of year again. The snow is perhaps starting to fall. Santa is making the final checks on his sleigh. Rudolf is getting good and sloshed for his big night. And all around the world Christmas office parties are leading to situations that "nobody should ever speak of again."

    It's also the time of the year where every digital storefront has a big holiday sale. Sales have kicked off today for both Steam and the Epic Games Store....

    PUMA is Selling $110 Gaming Water Shoes

    This is stupid.

    I think I'm starting to return to the point where I hate everything and I have a pair of "gaming footwear" to thank for that rapid decline. Nike makes gaming jerseys for esports teams? Sure, that's fine. There's nothing inherently wrong with that. Other sporting companies, like Adidas with Ninja, sponsor some professional video game players? I mean, that's still not completely terrible but it's starting down that path.

    And then we have PUMA here...

    The Game Awards 2019: All the Winning Games


    Okay, so the Game Awards happened. The half video game-Oscars, half game-announcement-venue was exciting to the say the least. Some of our favourite games won, and some didn’t. And many of our future-favourite games were announced along with many other things. It was a whole affair, and a long one, lasting over three hours.

    But don’t worry you don’t have to sit through it. We’ve gathered all the highlights — all the nominees, winning games...

    Sony Announces a Back Button Attachment for the DualShock 4

    Why now?

    Sony just announced that they are going to release a "Back Button Attachment" for the DualShock 4. This add-on device will add some bonus functionality to your controller when it releases on January 23. That is assuming you want to spend $29.99 (USD; $39.99 CAD) for some "elite"-like functionality.

    The Back Button Attachment seems to be a middle ground between a normal DualShock 4 and a full Elite controller type of experience. It is a device...

    Borderlands 3 on Stadia is an Old Build Running at Just 30FPS

    What a mess.

    The Stadia launch just continues to deliver. Deliver what? Well, not a great experience for most users. Today's launch of Borderlands 3 on the platform is certainly no exception.

    Today's release of Borderlands 3 is old. By that, I mean the build of the game on Stadia is from around October 24. It didn't take any sort of digging or examination of details from the game to find this out either. Gearbox voluntarily let their consumers know that this is an old...

    Xbox Series X is Just 'Xbox'

    It's either more confusing, or less, depending on how you look at it.

    Last week when Microsoft unveiled the next-gen Xbox, we were initially told it was going to be called the Xbox Series X, or Xbox SeX for us degenerates out there. Today, in speaking with Business Insider, an Xbox representative clarified that the name of their new console isn't Xbox Series X.

    Instead, the next-gen Xbox is just going to be called "Xbox."

    A Russian Company is Suing Twitch for $2.9 billion for Airing Pirated Soccer Streams

    That's a lot of nuts.

    Twitch, the ever popular Amazon owned streaming service, is being sued by a Russian internet company to the tune of $2.9 billion (USD) or 180 billion RUB. Rambler Group is seeking this amount and other punishments because of a number of user cast livestreams of the English Premier League that were live through Twitch.

    In addition to the $2.9 billion, Rambler Group is also seeking to have Twitch banned in Russia. The reason Rambler Group takes issue...
