Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

    Vulkan Support Now Live for Doom

    For those looking to perhaps see a few more frames per second (or FPS), you can now check out Doom running on the Vulkan API. Earlier today, support for Vulkan went live for the game.
    When we were looking to adopt Vulkan for DOOM, the main question we asked ourselves was: “What’s the gamer benefit?” Ultimately the biggest benefit will be high framerates.

    PsiSyndicate Shares Emails Showing How Sleazy CS:GO Gambling Sites Are

    Moments ago, PC Gamer shared some emails provided by Lewis "PsiSyndicate" Stewart and his involvement with Steamloto. Now, PsiSyndicate and Steamloto should not be confused with Tom "ProSyndicate" Cassell and CSGOLotto. They are two separate people with two separate (allegedly) betting sites, but both are involved in rigged betting of CS:GO skins. If nothing else, the major difference between the two individuals is that PsiSyndicate actually came clean and admitted that some of his previous...

    UPDATE 1 (9:41PM ET July 6, 2016): It seems as though Martin has pulled his insincere apology video! Why? It's a mystery.

He's not really apologizing for the illegal gambling, enticing minors to gamble, failure to disclose ownership of CSGOLotto, or facilitating illegal gambling. No, he's basically just...
