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...

    South Park: Snow Day! is a Newly Announced Co-op Game

    Engage in four-player co-op action in the town of South Park.
    ​
    THQ Nordic and Question Games just announced South Park: Snow Day! this past week. This new entry is not a sequel to the popular South Park: The Stick of Truth RPG, or its follow-up South Park: The Fractured but Whole. This game is instead a four-player co-op title. Snow Day looks like it's going to be a third-person brawler/shooter, which is obviously quite the departure from the RPG stylings of the previous games....

    EA Closing Servers for Crysis 3, Dead Space 2, and Dante's Inferno

    Let's be real: Nobody knew the servers for these were still live anyway.

    If you are still playing the online components for Crysis 3, Dead Space 2, or Dante's Inferno, I've got some bad news for you. First off, it's 2023 and there was a really bad pandemic that started in 2020 (technically it was 2019, but shut up). Secondly, the online servers for those three games are being shut down starting in September.

    Oh, and there are a bunch of other fixes included.

    The second post-release "hotfix" update for Baldur's Gate 3 was released a short time ago today. Sure, this update includes some nice fixes for a few game crashes, progression blockers, and other issues.
