Counter-Strike 2 is Out Now

Counter-Strike is dead, long live Counter-Strike!

Without a press release in sight, Valve has launched Counter-Strike 2 to the world. This free-to-play release is available right now and will replace your current installs of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. True to Valve tradition, today's release is actually a little bit later than initially expected. During its initial announcement in March, Valve said Counter-Strike 2 would be out in summer. It is now fall, but they only missed...

Volition is Shutting Down Effective Immediately

After 30 years, the studio is being shut down.

Volition formed in 1993, with their first game coming in 1995. That game was none other than the widely acclaimed Descent, a first-person spaceship shooter. Volition went on to make several more games in the Descent franchise. Volition also created the PlayStation 2 RPG Summoner. They created Red Faction and several sequels. They also created the Saints Row franchise, up to and including the latest franchise reboot title, aptly named Saints...

    It's the start of the month of October 2022, which means it's time for a new poll of the month! This might be the first time I'm actually on the ball with getting the POTM up on the first, but it's only because I've been thinking about this one ahead of time already.

    As it's October, that means one of a few things: Tree leaves are starting to change color, pumpkin spice comes out of hibernation to be added to all the things, and horror games are very much en vogue....

  • Latest Trailer for The Callisto Protocol is as Bloody as You Would Expect

    Latest Trailer for The Callisto Protocol is as Bloody as You Would Expect

    The new trailer also features a quick glimpse of Karen Fukuhara from The Boys.

    A new trailer for The Callisto Protocol went up late this week. As you have probably already come to expect from trailers and footage of this game, it's a very bloody and very gory trailer. What separates this trailer apart from some of the previous footage we've seen is the fact that this one seems to have a bigger focus on the story you will get to experience when The Callisto Protocol is released in December....

    There will be playtests starting soon.

    Ubisoft just announced another new co-op shooter today. They're calling it Project U. That's about all we know on this project. Well, that and the concept art which can be seen above. The art seems to depict various characters going up against what look like robot insect things.

    The announcement came with next to no information about the game itself. Ubisoft says, "Codename 'Project U' explores a new concept of sessions-based...

  • Google Passed on an Exclusive Death Stranding Follow-up for Stadia

    Google Passed on an Exclusive Death Stranding Follow-up for Stadia

    Single player games are apparently dead, so believes Phil Harrison.

    According to a new report by 9to5Google, Google passed on a Stadia-exclusive follow-up to Death Stranding. It seems as though the main sticking point for the management at Stadia is the fact that this proposed game by Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions would be a strictly single player experience.

    This is a slight departure from 2019's Death Stranding. That game is very much an asynchronous multiplayer...

    We finally have some more details on that "hunting game" that EA and Koei Tecmo pre-announced earlier this month. Wild Hearts is being billed as "the first AAA hunting experience for a new generation." It's apparently rather far along in development already as the release date is set for February 17, 2023 and will be out on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and on PC through Origin, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.

    Stop me if you've heard this one before.

    The firm* release date is now March 9, 2023. The reason given is the usual statement about how the team is hard at work polishing and balancing the game ahead of launch and wouldn't you know it? They just need some more time....

  • Poll: Are You a Fan of Paying More to Play Early?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Get that Premium Edition and play three days early!

    Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.

    Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...
    I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!

    I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.
