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.

  • Concerns Grow as Players Find Easy Cheat Method in The Division Beta

    Concerns Grow as Players Find Easy Cheat Method in The Division Beta

    The Division beta is currently ongoing and already players have found a severe flaw in the game's design. Apparently, all character stats are stored client side on the PC version of the game. This includes but is not limited to: player health, currency amount, player level, character speed, magazine/clip size, ammo capacity, medkit count, grenade count, and more. This essentially means that anybody playing the beta can, in theory, make themselves invincible killing machines that can ru...

    Ubisoft Opposes EA Over the Use of the Word "Ghost"

    Oh man, this is really stupid. It's not quite "Fine Bros. trademark the word 'react'" levels of stupid, but it's damn close. Ubisoft's legal team has filed an opposition to trademark registration against EA over the use of the word "Ghost."

    See, Ubisoft makes those Ghost Recon games. EA has a game development studio that they called Ghost. Ghost made the last couple Need for Speed (Need for Speed Rivals (2013), Need for Speed (2015)) games. Ubisoft is worried that people are...

    The Witness is Being Heavily Pirated Claims Creator

    Jonathan Blow made some comments on Twitter (via GI.biz) earlier that finds the Indie developer questioning his future in the industry. The culprit is once again the industry boogeyman, piracy.
    It seems The Witness is the #1 game on a certain popular torrent site. Unfortunately this will not help us afford to make another game! I'm glad that a lot more people will be experiencing the game! But I also want to be able to make another comparable game next! Just sayin'.

    Volition just got done showing off their unreleased PSP game, Saints Row: Undercover, via their Twitch channel.

    by Shawn Zipay
    It's AAAA vs WB.

    March isn't even over yet and we've already seen a couple of stinkers come out from major gaming studios. While we tend to focus on the surprise hits or quality titles in these polls, this time it's a little bit different.

    Between the Rocksteady developed live-service Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and the "AAAA" quality Ubisoft developed Skull and Bones: Which is the bigger disappointment for you?
