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...

    Watch Dogs 2 Getting Largest Free Multiplayer Update in July

    Come July 4, Watch Dogs 2 will be graced with the largest free multiplayer update ever. To be frank, I didn't know that the game had any updates to its multiplayer previously, so calling it the largest probably isn't any sort of stretch. Huh, according to the Ubiblog, the game has actually received five free updates and has three DLC releases. Who knew? Regardless, this update will include new missions, weapons, outfits, vehicles, map locations, and modes for the online multiplayer. Pe...

    Both Microsoft and Sony announced their lineup of "free" games for July 2017. These games are available to those that subscribe to Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Plus respectively.

    On the Xbox side, we have Grow Up, Runbow, Kane & Lynch 2, and LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game.

    Raphael Colantonio, the President of Arkane Studios, announced his departure from the company today. To cut off any poorly thought out conspiracies right out of the gate, Colantonio says right out of the gate that he's leaving in order to spend more time with his son.

  • Final Fantasy XV 1.12 Update Goes Off the Rails

    Final Fantasy XV 1.12 Update Goes Off the Rails

    Those of you who have played Final Fantasy XV know that the driving in the game is a very "on rails" experience. You weren't able to take your adventure off road because the game would simply prevent you from doing so. Now, with the release of the 1.12 update, this has all changed.

    You are now able to take your car, the Regalia, off road when you get a special Type-D customization. That customization literally turns the car into a monster truck. Nice. The update is over 8.6...

    Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice "Hela" Trailer

    The "Hela" trailer for Ninja Theory's Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice came out a few days back. No, this isn't a trailer featuring any sort of promotional tie-in with Life is Strange. You'd need an extra "L" in "Hela" for that to happen. Perhaps one day.

    Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice will be released on August 8 for $29.99 (USD). You can pre-order the game on the PS4 to get a Dynamic Theme or on PC via Steam or GOG to get a digital comic.

    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?
