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...

    Super Footbrawl Combines Gang Beasts with Rocket League

    A new game caught our eye today that looks to combine the worlds of Gang Beasts with Rocket League. It's called Super Footbrawl and as you may have already gathered, it seems to combine physics based player movement with the world of backyard soccer.

  • No Physical Release of Heavy Rain PS4 in North America

    No Physical Release of Heavy Rain PS4 in North America

    This is a bit of an odd on. When it comes to game releases, we almost always see North America getting a physical release when one is offered by a publisher. That trend seems to be bucked with the upcoming release of the Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls Collection.

    Quantic Dream posted their regional launch schedule on Facebook today. On it is no indication of a release in North America. You can still acquire both digitally. Heavy Rain for the PlayStation 4 is due out ...

This will hopefully be a small bit of content that includes short reviews of games I played in the past week and maybe a paragraph or two on some "interesting" bit of news I saw recently that I have an opinion about.

    Let me open with some quick reviews for a couple of games I played this past week: Firew...

  • The Future of Mobile Gaming

    The Future of Mobile Gaming

    It is not anything new, but the surge in mobile and casual gaming is only going to keep going strong in 2016. These past few years have seen an incredible surge in the popularity of mobile gaming. As of April 2015, 35% of all gamers said they play mobile games. It should only stand to reason to say that number will only increase as time goes on and more and more people pick up phones that are capable of playing games that are visually on par with the consoles they grew up with. We already...

  • Only One: The Game - Kanye West is Supposedly Making a Game with Paul McCartney


    Kanye West is making a game that will have music by Paul McCartney. It's called Only One: The Game and features Donda West (Kanye's late mom) riding Pegasus to the heavens.

    The above trailer seems to be the only footage online for this game right now. I apologize for how bad the quality and the annoying outro. Your guess is as good as mine right now about just what in the world is going on.

  • Quantum Break Confirmed for PC; Buy Xbox One Copy, Get PC Version for Free

    Quantum Break Confirmed for PC; Buy Xbox One Copy, Get PC Version for Free

    Microsoft and Remedy confirmed today that Quantum Break is indeed coming to the PC. What's more is that it's coming to the PC on the same day that it's coming to the Xbox One: April 5.

    On top of that news is the fact that those who pre-order the Xbox One version of the game will also get the PC version at no additional cost. Of course, there is a catch. That catch is that the game is Windows 10 exclusive. This probably also means that it will probably also be limited to using...
