TikTok Ban Signed Into Law by President Biden

Owner ByteDance has 270 days to sell off TikTok.

On April 24, President Joe Biden signed a foreign aid package that also included a bill that could ban TikTok in the United States. This ban can only be averted if the China-based company that owns TikTok, ByteDance, sells off the popular social media app before the 270 day time limit is up.

This gives ByteDance until January 19, 2025 to sell TikTok. An additional 90 day extension could be offered by President Biden if...
 

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...

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?

    The Legend of Zelda Pushed to 2017, in Development for Wii U and NX

    The new Legend of Zelda game for the Wii U has suffered a few setbacks today. First up is word that the game has been pushed to a 2017 release citing quality concerns. Second is the news that the game is now coming for the Nintendo NX in addition to the Wii U version that was previously announced. Nintendo stated that the delay is due to a desire to further improve the quality of the game. This means that Nintendo's holiday offerings are going to be very slim for Wii U owners. Their...

    Superhot Coming May 3 to Xbox One

    Superhot is already out on PC, but come May 3 it'll be time for the Xbox One to shine.
    Blurring the lines between cautious strategy and unbridled mayhem, SUPERHOT is the FPS in which time moves only when you move.

    No regenerating health bars. No conveniently placed ammo drops. It's just you, outnumbered and outgunned, grabbing the weapons of fallen enemies to shoot, slice, and maneuver through a hurricane of slow-motion bullets.
    If you aren't yet sold on the game...

  • Next Call of Duty is Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

    Next Call of Duty is Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

    A leak of the next Call of Duty name came from one of the least likely of places today. It showed up for some people on the PlayStation Network. At the top was a section for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Obviously, the issue was quickly fixed but not before screenshots and even a video was made of the name.

    Of course, the game hasn't actually been revealed yet, so perhaps this is all just a big red herring. Either that or someone at Sony received a ...

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Gameplay Trailer

    Welcome back to the final (I think) trailer for Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. The game is coming on May 10 so this is kind of looking like the spot that will air for TV commercials.
    Just think: in a mere two weeks’ time, we’ll all be playing Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Naughty Dog has described Nathan Drake’s next adventure as his last — I sure hope it’s not! But just in case it is, let’s take one more look at what’s in store with the final trailer. I adore Naugh
