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...

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?

  • World of Warcraft Classic Servers are Live and Severely Hammered

    World of Warcraft Classic Servers are Live and Severely Hammered

    Multi-hour long queues, just as you remembered them.

    Blizzard launched World of Warcraft Classic today to some very eager rose-tinted glasses wearing fans today. The servers were live at around 6PM (ET) but you probably aren't even able to get in. About ten days ago, Blizzard had already warned players that some servers were already massively overpopulated. They estimated that login queues of over 10,000 players are a very real possibility if nobody made a switch to some of their lower...

  • The International 9 Once Again Breaks All the Records

    The International 9 Once Again Breaks All the Records

    Another year, another batch of broken esports records.

    Valve announced today that the ninth annual Dota 2 International Championships (The International 9) has smashed records? Which records? A lot of esports ones.

    First off, this marks the first back-to-back victory for any team in the history of The International. That's right, OG won it all this year just as they did in 2018. I'm sure a lot of fans had that spoiled for them thanks to a random email from Twitch. Good...

  • Epic Nerfs Giant Mechs in Fortnite

    Epic Nerfs Giant Mechs in Fortnite

    Taking a nerf bat to the mech that everyone hates.

    The new, giant mechs in the latest Fortnite season aren't winning too many fans over. In fact, some people outright despise the mech and other changes that came about in Season 10. Epic hasn't backed down from keeping them in the game (for now), but they did make some nerfs to the way that mech, called B.R.U.T.E., operates. Perhaps Respawn had the right idea when they decided not to include the Titans in Apex Legends.

    A 5v5 competitive game mode never quite got off the ground.
