Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

From announcing a $130 edition of Star Wars Outlaws to pulling game licenses from those that bought The Crew, Ubisoft sure is on a roll this week.

The Crew was Ubisoft's open-world racing game that was pulled from sale back in December 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Ubisoft shut down the online servers for The Crew. This effectively made the game unplayable across all platforms, including: PC,...
 

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...

  • Geoff Keighley Hosting YouTube Live at E3

    Geoff Keighley Hosting YouTube Live at E3

    Geoff Keighley is slated to be the host for YouTube Live at E3. Starting June 14, you can get your fill of Keighley during the duration of E3.

    I was largely a fan of what Keighley did with The Game Awards 2014, so I have high expectations for what he'll do with this. He's at his best when he's not constrained by a lot of red tape.

    Turbine announced, via the Infinite Crisis website, that their superhero themed MOBA will be shutting down on August 14.

  • Witcher 3 Experience Bug Won't be Patched Until Next Week

    Witcher 3 Experience Bug Won't be Patched Until Next Week

    It seems as though CD Projekt RED kind of screwed up their last update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The latest patch introduced a bug that would prevent XP from being rewarded upon quest completion. The worst part is that the bug seems, at least to most everyone talking about it, to be quite random. People have suggested that you'll be fine if you avoid doing story missions and focus only on sidequests, while others say that isn't true. Simply put, there is no clear cause to this issue and i...
