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.

  • Red Dead Redemption 2 Has About 200 Species of Animal for You to Hunt and Skin

    Rockstar would like to inform you that Red Dead Redemption 2 will have about 200 species of animals, birds, and fish. All of these creatures will "behave and respond to their environment in a unique way." I am assuming that every single one of these animals will be able to be hunted, killed, and skinned. It just wouldn't feel right if you couldn't do that in a Red Dead Redemption sequel. Rockstar also passes along word that there are 19 different breeds of horses that you will be able t...

  • Live streaming has changed the face of gaming – and it's only just got started

    Live streaming has changed the face of gaming – and it's only just got started


    Gaming is, by its very nature, an interactive pastime. Unlike watching a movie, reading a book or spectating at a sporting event, it is a hobby in which the gamer is in the thick of the action. With the realism offered by today’s games, that offers a more immersive experience than ever. There is, for example, a school of thought that playing a horror game can be an even more unsettling experience than watching a movie. Imagine that scene from The Shining, but instead of Danny riding the...

  • Dante Pulls His Devil Trigger in Newest Devil May Cry 5 Trailer

    Dante Pulls His Devil Trigger in Newest Devil May Cry 5 Trailer

    The 2018 Tokyo Game Show is the slow drip that just keeps on giving. About two hours ago now, Capcom unveiled a new trailer for Devil May Cry 5 that features some "bombastic Dante gameplay." Those are their words, not mine, hence the quotes though I have no reason to doubt that it lacks any measure of bombasticy.
    The city’s gone to hell and back, completely overrun by demons from the underworld. Turns out, it’s not just Red Grave City in trouble. They’re everywhere. In Devil May
