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

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...

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...

  • Battlefield Hardline Trial Available Now on EA Access

    Battlefield Hardline Trial Available Now on EA Access

    If you own an Xbox One and pay for the EA Access subscription, you can play a 10 hour long trial of the full Battlefield Hardline offering. I believe that this allows for players to access all of the game's multiplayer offerings and only the start of the single player campaign. The download is a bit over 45GB, but if you were planning on buying the game already and have EA Access, you may as well get some time in now. There is (obviously) no system like this for the PC or PlayStation consoles....

  • Battlefield Hardline Writer Had to Remove Dialogue to Dehumanize the Bad Guys

    In speaking with Polygon, a Battlefield Hardline writer, Rob Auten, mentioned how they actually had to remove lines of dialogue from the game in order for the "bad guys (to feel) like bad guys."
    Writer Rob Auten told me that one of the difficulties he had with this game was creating thugs who were engaging enough to seem realistic, but not so engaging that the player might feel guilty about shooting them. "I wrote one about this guy getting back together with his ex-girlfriend," Auten expla

    Project CARS has experienced yet another delay. The anticipated racing title from Slightly Mad has already been pushed back multiple times, the latest now pushing the game to a possible mid-May launch window.
    “Despite our long heritage and pedigree in making critically-acclaimed racing games, Project CARS is by far the grandest and most intricately detailed of them all. Despite therefore the game being 99.9% complete, the remaining 0.1% attending to small issues and bugs has been
