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...

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

  • 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...
