IGN's report from March 30 says that two separate sources confirmed with them that the Entertainment Software Association (ESA; the group behind E3) sent out emails to ESA members earlier today announcing the cancellation....
 

Valve Announces Counter-Strike 2

Valve's massively popular FPS gets an engine upgrade and a test starting today.

Valve officially announced Counter-Strike 2 today after weeks of teases, speculation, and rumors. The developer calls this "the largest technical leap forward in Counter-Strike's history" and I'm inclined to believe it.

Counter-Strike 2 will launch to everyone starting in Summer of 2023. Counter-Strike 2 will be a free upgrade to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Some Counter-Strike:...
 

Sony's Jim Ryan Reportedly Said His Goal is to 'Block Your Merger' in Closed Door Meeting with Activision

The CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment reportedly had some choice words during a meeting with Activision.

It has been a ridiculous day for Sony when it comes to new details that have come out about the company's opposition to the Microsoft and Activision Blizzard merger.

First, a new report from The Verge's Tom Warren shared some key pieces of information from documents (PDF download) that were recently submitted to the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA)....
 

Review: The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition

An easy purchase for new players but maybe a hard sell for existing owners.

It was not until I reinstalled the original PC release of The Outer Worlds that I was able to really appreciate the improvements made with the release of The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition. Initially, I believed that this looked exactly like the same game that I had played on PC back in late 2019 when it first came out.

"I'm just not seeing what makes this Spacer's Choice Edition worth...
 

All Steam Fest and Steam Sale Dates for 2023

Valve shared their 2023 schedule of events with developers.

The entire schedule of big seasonal sales and themed Steam Fest events was shared yesterday by Valve. Now you'll know months in advance just how badly your bank accounts are going to hurt.

The list includes four major seasonal sales that include the spring, summer, autumn, and winter sales. In between most of these are small "Fest" events, which also typically have themed sales of their own. There will...

    NewsBits: Ubisoft Forward 2022 Edition

    Another showcase means it's time for a new dose of NewsBits.

    What's that smell? It's kind of musky with a hint of gamer sweat. That's right, it's a NewsBits. Today's latest NewsBits is all about that Ubisoft Forward stream that took place over the past weekend. Ubisoft showed off a bunch of games that are either getting fresh content or are entirely new.

    We already offered up a look at all of the Assassin's Creed stuff that Ubisoft is working on, so let's now take a look...

    Ubisoft Says Assassin's Creed Mirage Won't Have Gambling or Loot Boxes

    The 18+ Adults Only rating was allegedly a mistake.

    This past weekend, Ubisoft held their latest Ubisoft Forward stream. During the stream, the company showed off some new updates and upcoming titles like Just Dance, Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, Skull and Bones, Riders' Republic, various bits about The Division, Mythic Quest Season 3, various mobile games, and more. We will have a separate post about those titles, and more, going up shortly.

    Everything Shown at the Disney and Marvel Games Showcase 2022

    A show so underwhelming, no single announcement is worthy of its own post.

    If you missed out on the first-ever Disney and Marvel Games Showcase at D23 2022, you really didn't miss much of anything. I mean it. That show was boring. We were given some updated looks at already announced games, some mobile stuff, a new visual novel Tron game, and some early mockups for a game that is so far away from being released it doesn't even have a title yet.

    Let's start things off with...

Then we got our first look at the Phantom Liberty expansion coming next year.

    AGDQ 2023 Goes Digital Only Because Florida is an Anti-Trans Hellhole

    It's Florida vs Texas in a race to the bottom.

    The speedrunning charity marathon, Games Done Quick, says that their next major event will be online-only. The organizers for Games Done Quick say that Awesome Games Done Quick (AGDQ) 2023 will not be held as an in-person event in Florida as originally planned. The main reasons for this move to being online are two-fold: Florida's "continued disregard for COVID-19's dangers and an increased aggression towards LGBTQ+ individuals."...

    New PlayStation 5 Model is More Energy Efficient

    The new model includes a new motherboard and cooling.

    Last month, Australians were the first to receive the latest hardware revision on PlayStation 5 hardware. Sony quietly released a new SKU of their latest console without saying what exactly was new or changed in comparison to earlier models. YouTuber Austin Evans (via The Verge) managed to get his hands on one of these new models and found out that there are a lot of internal changes.

    Evans found that Sony is using...

  • Poll: What Platform Do you Game on the Most?

    Do you prefer consoles? PC? Maybe mobile is your preferred platform?

    This month's poll is a bit generic if only because I really don't know what to ask right now and this is the easiest thing that came to mind. The question is simple: Which sort of platform do you prefer to play games on?

    Do you like playing on consoles? Do you prefer to play games on PC? What about mobile games? Maybe you prefer to spend most of your time on your phone playing this, that, or the other....
