The antitrust lawsuit against Valve from Wolfire Games got a little spicy this week.

    Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide Coming to Consoles on October 4

    The big, bad rats of Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide will infest the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One beginning October 4. The game, already out on PC, plays a lot like a Warhammer themed version of Left 4 Dead, complete with rats instead of zombies, a number of boss-like special rats, crescendo events, and finale events. The major differences here is the fact that each character has their own weapons and abilities, making them all have distinct play styles. There is also a leveling system, cra...
