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 ...

    DICE Buffs Shotguns in March 5 Update for Battlefield 5


    DICE has already provided the patch notes for the Battlefield V update that is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, March 5. This is "Update #4" for Battlefield V Tides of War Chapter 2: Lightning Strikes. Yeah, their naming conventions on these updates are a bit annoying, I agree.

    Of the changes included in this update, we're going to see an overall buff to the shotguns in the game. DICE somehow came to the conclusion that they were now weaker than SMGs? I, uh, hm......

    Sony Reportedly Offering Full Refunds on Anthem for Some PlayStation 4 Users


    Despite Sony having one of the most strict refund policies around, it seems as though they are making some exceptions for Anthem on the PlayStation 4. Crashes and bugs aren't really all that uncommon for games these days. However, Anthem seems to be taking things a step further by completely turning off the PlayStation 4 in some instances.

    This Reddit thread made just a few hours ago is just one of many reports of this particular issue happening to someone. A couple of users...

    Chris Avellone Wraps Up Work on Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order; Teases Another Project


    Earlier today, game designer and noted writer Chris Avellone revealed that he recently finished working on Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.

    If you recall from yesterday's news, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the latest Star Wars title that EA is getting ready to publish. Unlike other Star Wars titles released in the past couple of years, this one isn't being developed by DICE but is instead being developed by Respawn Entertainment.

    New Video for Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid Features Lord Drakkon


    A new trailer for Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid came out today. In it, we get a better look at the Lord Drakkon character that is included in this fighting game.

    I haven't seen Power Rangers in like two decades, so I don't know if this Lord Drakkon character is in the series already or if they're new for this game. A brief Google search says that Lord Drakkon is an evil version of Tommy, the White Ranger. He appeared first in the Power Rangers comics back in 2016. So, there you have it. ...

    Fortnite Season 8 Promotes Piracy


    The eighth season of content for Fortnite went live earlier today. Get your sails ready, your peg leg waxed up, and your hook sharpened because Fortnite Season 8 is all about the pirates life for me.

    But wait, there's more! Who is a pirate's greatest nemesis? If you answered scurvy, you'd be wrong! It's ninjas! Unlike some ninjas, these probably don't have blue hair. I guess Epic is trying to pull back in that Sea of Thieves crowd on Twitch? There's also some stuff about a giant...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered Rated in Europe


    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered was apparently just been given a rating by the Pan European Game Information board (PEGI). This specific rating is for the PlayStation 4. And yes, that is the actual title that is given.

    So far, nothing about this has been announced by Activision yet. Hell, nothing about this year's Call of Duty release has been revealed at all yet.

    I just can't help but feel incredibly indifferent about this if the Modern Warfare...

    Game director Toshifumi Nabeshima provides fans some details about the skills and tactics that need to be used to ensure victory on the battlefield. The video offers up yet another glimpse of the "survival action shooter" gameplay found in Left Alive.

    We previously saw a decent amount of gameplay only last week, so be sure to check that out as well after you finish today's video. Or rather, should I say today's videos? Yes, there is another video for you to check out today. In addition to the commentary video from the director, a developer diary with Nabeshima, character designer Yoji Shinkawa, and mech designer Takayuki Yanase was also released today. ...

    Worry not Pokemon Trainers, I didn't forget about your news today! I almost did, but that's besides the point.

    Earlier today Nintendo announced Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield, both for the Nintendo Switch. These games officially kick off generation eight for the long-running and still very popular franchise. These two games will be released this Fall and are (apparently) the first mainline titles to appear on a home console. Though I suppose you could technically spin it to...

    Overkill's The Walking Dead is Officially Dead on All Platforms


    Last week, PlayStation 4 owners that pre-ordered Overkill's The Walking Dead received a notice saying that the game has been cancelled. Sony started to issue refunds to customers as a result of this. However, publisher 505 Games was quick to comment, saying that the game was merely "postponed" as the game was still in development.

    Today, the console versions of Overkill's The Walking Dead has been canceled. Skybound Entertainment, the studio that permits The Walking...
