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 ...

    Insomniac Reveals New PAX East Trailer for Stormland


    A new trailer surfaced today ahead of PAX East 2019 for the Insomniac Games developed VR title, Stormland.

    Stormland is currently only in development for the Oculus Rift. The chances of it being released for other platforms, like the Vive or PlayStation VR are pretty slim since it's being published by Oculus Studios. Of course, it's not particularly difficult to get Rift "exclusive" games working on the Vive thanks to Revive, so maybe that's a moot point.

    GWENT: The Witcher Card Game will be released on smartphones later this year. This release will bring all of the intense card flipping action to your fingertips when the game arrives on both iOS and Android devices at some unspecified date later in 2019.

    I should note here that it seems as though the iOS version will be out first. I'm reading that "details regarding an Android release will be announced at a later date." Of course.

    Borderlands 3 Teased Ahead of Full Reveal


    The full reveal for Borderlands 3 isn't for another, oh, roughly 25 hours from now, but that doesn't mean we can't have a teaser video today, right? Earlier today, a trailer went up for Borderlands that makes a point of saying that "Mayhem is coming!"

    Specifically, it seems as though Mayhem is a mask. Hence the title of this teaser is "Mask of Mayhem." In the trailer we get a good look at some of the characters you will be fighting as and against. A recent...
