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 ...

  • Yakuza Kiwami Launches Today

    Yakuza Kiwami Launches Today

    Yakuza Kiwami is out today in North America for the PlayStation 4. Priced at $29.99 (USD), the game is an "extreme" remake of the original Yakuza game from the PlayStation 2.
    Being retold in Kiwami is the nascent character arc for Yakuza - the game begins with series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu getting sent to prison for the murder of his family patriarch (which he didn't commit). To make matters worse, during the 10 years of his imprisonment, not only does Kiryu's clan expel him from

    Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire Mounts Reveal

    Earlier today, ArenaNet released their second developer diary for Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire. As the title would indicate, this particular developer diary decided to focus on a major addition to the series, mounts. Sure, you'll be able to move around on them, but they are so much more than that.
    It’s All about the Mounts During testing, we found that manually dismounting to attack foes felt clunky and bad. We developed engage skills—offensive skills that allow your mounts to en

    Dragon Ball FighterZ to Feature SSGSS Goku and Vegeta

    Bandai Namco just revealed that Dragon Ball FighterZ will include Super Saiyan Gold Super Saiyan (SSGSS) form of Goku and Vegeta. Really? You simply double up on the "Super Saiyan" for the form? That's incredibly unoriginal and frankly, it's just a bit lazy. Anyway, here's a Super trailer of the Super Saiyan Gold Super Saiyan Super Gold Saiyan Super Gold Super Saiyan Gold form. The game will be out for the PC, PS4, and XB1 in early 2018. SSGSS Goku and Vegeta are an early unlock for ...

    New Open-World Rune Game Announced by Human Head Studios

    Human Head Studios, the team behind the 2006 Prey and Rune, just announced Rune: Ragnarok. Rune: Ragnarok is being billed as a "sandbox, open-world RPG set in a dangerous Norse universe during the end of days." Huh, well that sounds peachy.
    A highly anticipated follow-up to Rune, the team’s hit action-adventure game, Rune: Ragnarok places players in the middle of an epic battle where gods, beasts, and the last remaining humans struggle to survive. By pledging allegiance to one of t

    If you like playing with big balls that roll down hills, you may be happy to hear that Rock of Ages 2: Bigger & Boulder is now available via Steam and the PlayStation 4. The Xbox One? Well, it gets the game tomorrow.
    This part Tower Defense, part Racing, part Art History lesson, and all-smashing game from ACE Team is the rocks to the wall sequel to 2011's deliciously off-beat Rock of Ages. In the game, players navigate artistic worlds, taking turns in defensive and offensive roles

  • Review: Yakuza Kiwami (PS4)

    Review: Yakuza Kiwami (PS4)

    Do It For Her.

    Yakuza Kiwami is an updated remake of the original Yakuza title, a game that was originally released back in 2006 in North America for the PlayStation 2. Right out of the gate, Kiwami can and should be considered more than just a simple remake. It feels more like an extension of the fantastic Yakuza 0 that came to North America earlier this year and less like a game that came out nearly ten years ago. Yakuza Kiwami delivers updated assets, visuals, and even completely...

    Yakuza Kiwami Launch Edition Vlog and Free Content Release Schedule

    With the release of Yakuza Kiwami coming on August 29, it makes sense that we get the last details on the game prior to launch. The launch vlog for Yakuza Kiwami shows us "exactly how extreme the Yakuza Kiwami launch edition is."

    There is also word about a Reddit AMA coming on September 8 at 12PM (PT) on /r/PS4. Pre-orders for the game get you access to a Yakuza Kiwami theme for the PS4.

    Hey, it's Friday and that means a lot of games are being released today? I guess so. Usually these things are done on Tuesday but it's 2017 and nothing makes sense.

    Whatever, let's get on with it.

    One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition came out today on the PC and PlayStation 4. A Switch version is coming on September 29, 2017.

  • This is the Plot to Half-Life 3

    This is the Plot to Half-Life 3

    January 8, 2016 is when we reported that Half-Life writer, Marc Laidlaw, parted ways from Valve. 18 years worth of writing for the company saw him pen some of the best games of our lifetime including the entirety of Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Dota 2, and Portal. It was sad, disappointing, and even a bit frustrating that he left before we ever got to experience his work in Half-Life 3. It's weird to think about Half-Life 3. Fans have wanted it for years now, but Valve just doesn't seem capabl...

  • Rockstar Revives Smuggler's Run for GTA Online

    Rockstar Revives Smuggler's Run for GTA Online

    Way back in the day, Rockstar Games made a series of games called Smuggler's Run. Seeing as how the last games in that series came out for the GameCube and PlayStation 2, I'd say it's been a while since Smuggler's Run saw the light of day. That is, it has remained dormant until today.

    GTA Online brings back some of that old feeling with the Smuggler's Run update. You're looking at new planes, helicopters, and ultralights to play with as you try to transport "goods" around...

  • Poll: What is 2024's Biggest Gaming Disappointment So Far?
    by Shawn Zipay
    It's AAAA vs WB.

    March isn't even over yet and we've already seen a couple of stinkers come out from major gaming studios. While we tend to focus on the surprise hits or quality titles in these polls, this time it's a little bit different.

    Between the Rocksteady developed live-service Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and the "AAAA" quality Ubisoft developed Skull and Bones: Which is the bigger disappointment for you?
