Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

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...

  • We Happy Few Approved for Release in Australia

    We Happy Few Approved for Release in Australia

    Australia is known for a number of things like extremely hot weather and the Outback (Steakhouse and otherwise). It's also known to be really ass backwards when it comes to rating games even after they adopted the R18+ rating a few years back.

    Case in point, the Australian Classification Review Board initially denied a classification to We Happy Few. Compulsion Games filed an appeal with the board and it looks like they changed their mind, granting the game an R18+ rating in...

    Hidden Peacekeeper Revolver Unlocked in Battlefield 1

    Yet another big Battlefield 1 mystery has been solved, this time leading players to unlocking the unique Peacekeeper revolver weapon. In order to even have a chance of unlocking this weapon, you had to have completed one of the previous Easter eggs hidden in the game that awarded you a dog tag.

    For days now, a number of L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files players have reported that they are unable to play the game that they purchased due to DRM authentication issues.

    Starfield Being Created with New Hardware in Mind

    In case there was any doubt about Bethesda's Starfield being a "next-gen title" then perhaps the following information direct from Todd Howard himself will clear things up.

    Howard spoke with Eurogamer's Robert Purchese about his expectations for Starfield. Beyond it being a game that has gameplay systems and mechanics that he feels are "next-gen," the hardware that they are targeting isn't even out yet.
    What, then, does Starfield being next-generation mean? "That to us

  • Valve Looking into "Better" Steam Spy Alternative

    Valve Looking into "Better" Steam Spy Alternative

    In April of this year, Valve started to change up the privacy settings for all Steam users. By default, all Steam users had their game libraries set to private. As a side-effect of this move, this left services like Steam Spy having to close up shop as they could no longer provide accurate data for public consumption. Now, Valve says that they're personally working on an alternative to Steam Spy. Specifically, they're making "something better than Steam Spy." This information was shared ...

    2K is bringing back their Carnival Games franchise, this time for the Nintendo Switch. The game is simply going to be titled Carnival Games and it will release on November 6 for $39.99 (USD). I assume this is a reboot of the series given that it's not like "Carnival Games 3."
    Like a real-life county fair, Carnival Games allows players of all ages and experience levels to enjoy classic games like ring toss ("Post Master") and alley ball horse racing ("Roll-R-Derby"), as well as brand
