Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

    Horizon Zero Dawn from Guerrilla Games Pits You Against Big Robotic Animals

    Sony and Guerrilla Games showed off what the developer has been working on these past few months. No, it's not another Killzone game, far from it.

    The final "major" show of E3 2015 is upon us. The main event for the PC Gaming Show isn't for another 30 minutes (from the time of this posting) but you can get settled in now. I'm not 100% sure how long this is supposed to run for or what exactly we're supposed to see at this thing, but it could be interesting. Right? PC gaming isn't dead? Right? Naw, of course not. You can watch this one entirely on Twitch since I'm not sure if YouTube is going to be covering this one properly. Af...
