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...

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

  • Official First-Person Mode Released for The Evil Within 2

    Official First-Person Mode Released for The Evil Within 2

    The Evil Within 2 already featured a small section of gameplay that was entirely in first-person mode. Shortly after the game's release, someone was able to mod the game to enable first-person mode for the entirety of the game. Now, Tango Gameworks has updated the game with an official first-person mode that everyone can safely enjoy. The option can be toggled on and off at any point within the options menu. Finding an area too hard in first-person? Turn it off. Likewise, if you want...

    Explore the Music of Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom

    A new behind the scenes video by Bandai Namco and LEVEL-5 showcases some of the tunes you will hear while playing through Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom. Specifically, this new video shows off the process of creating the music and it features the "legendary composer" Joe Hisaishi.

    I looked up Joe Hisaishi and based on what I found I would be so inclined as to say that yes, he is indeed a legendary composer. He is known for a variety of works including Spirited Away, Pony...

  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Hit Injustice 2 Today

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Hit Injustice 2 Today

    As we have reported a few times in the past, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are coming to Injustice 2. Rather, they are now in Injustice 2 as of today, at least for those that own the Ultimate Edition, Ultimate Pack, or the Fighter Pack #3. Apparently, you swap which turtle you play as simply by equipping the different weapons used by each of them. You already saw the trailer once before, but you're going to see it again because I said so. And probably because they didn't include any...

    Hands On with Sea of Thieves (PC)

    During the most recent beta for Rare's upcoming high seas pirating adventure, Sea of Thieves, I was fortunate enough to be given a key and test the waters for myself. My first go at the game included two of my friends and a random person teaming up for a four man crew aboard a large and worthy vessel. We collected our supplies from the port at which we spawned. Supplies that included bananas to help us replenish our health if needed, cannonballs to engage in piracy on the open waters...

You'll get to see characters and locations such as Monsters, Inc., Woody and Buzz from Toy Story, Ariel from The Little Mermaid, and more.
