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 ...

  • Second Major Patch Released Today for Chrono Trigger

    Second Major Patch Released Today for Chrono Trigger

    I just realized how amusing it is to write about a patch being released for Chrono Trigger. For a brief moment, I felt as though it was the mid-90s again and I was about to write up a story concerning a new patch for Chrono Trigger on the SNES. That's some weird, alternate reality stuff right there.

    But alas, it's 2018 and I'm naturally talking about the PC release of Chrono Trigger. Today sees the release of the second major patch for the game, following the first major ...

  • Battlefield V Live Reveal on May 23

    Battlefield V Live Reveal on May 23

    Earlier today Battlefield V was officially announced. I mean, we kind of knew there was a new Battlefield game coming, though the name being confirmed as "Battlefield V" is noteworthy.

    I say it's noteworthy because an earlier rumor said that the name would be Battlefield V, which has now been confirmed. The rumor also said that the game would take place during WWII. That has yet to be confirmed. However, given that the leaked image in the rumor utilizes the same color scheme...

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Announced

    It looks like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 was announced today. All that was revealed today was the fact that it will eventually be a game but it won't be released until 2021. There's also a website for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 but it doesn't have much of anything on it. There is literally no other information released yet for the game. I feel as though it was announced this early because they want to spend the next three years torturing people like me with having to type the game's title out in each and...

  • Celebrate Father's Day with Dad Quest Chapter 2, Coming for Free Before Father's Day

    Smartphones vs Games Consoles: The Fight Begins

    There’s this consistent sense that games played on a smartphone or tablet are not as legitimate as those played on consoles or PCs. That notion is fast becoming a thing of the past, however, as mobile gaming continues to grow in both popularity and profit-making. There are a number of reasons for this transition, not least of which is the popularity of smartphones and their increasing ability to provide games that are not only competent in terms of graphics, but also excel at some of the more...

  • Rumor: Retro Studios Making Star Fox: Grand Prix Racing Game; Other Projects Cancelled

    New reports out of Kotaku and Eurogamer suggest that Retro Studios is busy working on a Star Fox: Grand Prix racing game. That's the good news for the studio that previously brought you the Metroid Prime trilogy. The bad news is that their other projects may be cancelled.

    These leaks originally hit Reddit and 4chan this weekend but have been reported by a number of additional sites. The Reddit details were first brought to light by user DasVergeben, whom apparently has a rather...
