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.

    Official Response from Koei Tecmo Regarding Dead or Alive Xtreme 3

    Koei Tecmo has released an official statement regarding Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 and how it still isn't coming out in the West, just as they originally revealed months back. For those that don't know, someone on Koei Tecmo's community team decided it would be a great idea to not so subtly say that the studio wasn't going to release DOAX3 in the West due to the social issues surrounding women in games and how the company was facing backlash from particular groups already. At least that's how the rem...

    Recent PS4 SDK Update Unlocked Additional CPU Core for Gaming

    Up until a recent SDK update for the PlayStation 4, the team at Sony decided that the system needed at least two CPU cores to run the operating system and other associated tasks. Well, that was changed a few weeks back when an SDK update for the platform rolled out where Sony unlocked a seventh core that could be used for gaming purposes.

    Where are the Reviews for the Steam Controller and Steam Link?

    Hello denizens of Total Gaming Network! I feel as though I owe some sort of an explanation here as to where the promised reviews are for the Steam Controller and Steam Link.

    Part of it is because I am hitting some terrible mental blockades that have really put a damper on creating anything cohesive as far as reviews go. It started with the Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns review and it has not let up since then. I'm not sure why I've been hit with such a terrible bout of writer's...
