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 ...

    Prison Architect Christmas Update is Live

    New Overwatch Christmas Comic Leads to Mass Nerd Outrage

    Merry Christmas everyone! Well, it's Christmas time in Overwatch at least. Blizzard released a new comic today and inside were some crrrrraaaazzzzy revelations! For instance, the big one that has everyone talking is that McCree drinks alcohol! Can you believe it? I know, I couldn't believe it either!

    That sure has worked up the Overwatch community something fierce! Seriously, don't go to the official forums right now, they're actually a hellscape of whining. Anywho, if you're...

  • Official "Trailer" for Seasons of Heaven for Nintendo Switch

    Official "Trailer" for Seasons of Heaven for Nintendo Switch

    There is a new "trailer" out today for Seasons of Heaven for the upcoming Nintendo Switch. Why is "trailer" in quotes like that? Because the developers themselves titled it that way.

    The rumor right now is that this trailer was actually made on PC but tailored to the potential Switch hardware specs since the development team allegedly doesn't have access to Switch dev kits yet. Nintendo is apparently being stingy with dev kits yet again.

  • Internet Overreaction Forces Ubisoft to Remove Weird Assassin's Creed NPC

    Internet Overreaction Forces Ubisoft to Remove Weird Assassin's Creed NPC

    Thanks to a recent, poorly researched video by Polygon concerning the Assassin's Creed Ezio Collection, Ubisoft was forced to remove a weird looking NPC from appearing in a cutscene.

    The NPC in question has the potential to show up in a cutscene in Sequence 1, Memory 1 of the remastered Assassin's Creed II from the collection. The problem here is that the NPCs are randomized, just as they were in the game's original release. This means that any number of NPCs can show up in...

    Desperation Thy Name is a Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Free Trial

    If you haven't yet been bitten by the annual Call of Duty bug, perhaps a free trial of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare will sway you. Or not. Actually, it probably won't but I'm still going to let you know about it. Right now until December 20 at 10AM (PT), you can play a free trial of the massively disappointing Infinite Warfare multiplayer (level cap of 15), Zombies, and somewhat decent Campaign (just two levels). If that doesn't sell you, maybe hearing that it's a 55+GB download wi...

  • Microtransactions and Women Filled Loot Boxes Added to Modern Warfare Remastered

    Yesterday, an update was released for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered. It added in some returning multiplayer maps and new game modes like Gun Game and Hardpoint. That's great news!

    The not so great news is that they added in microtransactions into the game, which had no microtransactions in the first place. Yes, they are cosmetic but the fact remains that they were added in after the game launched without any. Secondly, they also added in female character models that...
