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.

  • Mortal Kombat X Continues Screwing PC Owners - New Content Coming Only to Consoles

    When Mortal Kombat X released on the PC, it was a bit of a shitshow. It began with the decision to download the game in chunks. In theory, that should allow players to enjoy part of the game while the rest downloaded in the background. The problem was, the system was broken, and chunks either failed to download or downloaded repeatedly. This meant that entire portions of the game were flat out broken for a long time, including story mode, online play, and more. On top of that, the netcode...

    They're calling it Shadow Moses and it will more than likely be hit with a cease and desist sooner rather than later. But hey, enjoy this first trailer for the game! Maybe with Konami not giving...
