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...

    Happy 10th Anniversary Battlefield 2!

    Battlefield 2, the game that not only played an important role in the lives of many of us but also was highly responsible for the soul and essence of the multiplayer shooters that we get today. It was undoubtedly an example of a game that we unfortunately don't get nowadays, a game full of innovation, of new ideas and concepts and with no fear to execute them. It was also thanks to this success that the Battlefield series managed to grow exponentially to what it is today. For the time it ach...

  • Batman: Arkham Knight 60FPS Workaround for PC Users

    Batman: Arkham Knight 60FPS Workaround for PC Users

    Batman: Arkham Knight came out tonight on all platforms. Unfortunately for those PC owners out there, the gameplay is capped at 30fps. Why? Not really sure. They have an in-game benchmark that most certainly goes above 30 but the game itself runs at 30 max.

    That is unless you make this simple INI tweak!
    • With the game not running, go to your installation folder for Arkham Knight. It will be something like: \steamapps\common\Batman Arkham Knight

  • Bungie Does a Poor Job Defending the Price for The Taken King and Rebuying Content

    When pressed by Eurogamer to explain how they can justify selling The Taken King expansion for $40 while omitting content that players could only get if they re-purchased the entire game again, Bungie's Luke Wilson gave the PR equivalent of "because fuck you, give me money."
    Eurogamer: So it may seem like a small thing but you're adding exclusive content to the game - three new dance emotes - that players can't get unless they rebuy the main game and the two existing DLCs. Is that

    1TB PlayStation 4 Ultimate Player Edition Starts to Arrive in July

    Sony also announced today that they will be rolling out a 1TB "Ultimate Player Edition" PlayStation 4. The higher capacity system will launch in select Europe and PAL territories starting on July 15.

    When will other regions see the new 1TB model? No idea. How much will it be? Nobody seems to know just yet. Will this use the updated hardware for the PS4 CUH-1200 model? No. That means if you have the 500GB model but want more storage, you may as well just ...

  • Watch 13 Minutes of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Co-Op Gameplay on the PS4

    Watch 13 Minutes of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 Co-Op Gameplay on the PS4

    Sony and Activision just released a new 13 minute long gameplay video for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. This new footage shows off the game's co-op campaign for the upcoming release of the annual FPS. The video notes that not all features shown will be available on all platforms. What I assume this means is that the old generation of consoles (Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3) will not feature four player co-op. I think those platforms may be limited to just two player co-op. This is mer...

  • Poll: What is 2024's Biggest Gaming Disappointment So Far?
    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?
