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.

    Marvel's Avengers Developer Apologizes for the Game

    The apology comes from a former creative director at Virtuos.

    Marvel's Avengers was not a great game. It was not quite what most would call "good" either. With active development of the game ending fully this year, it seems like it's time for some former employees to come forth and offer their thoughts on just how it all went wrong.

    One such person to come forward with a comment is Virtosu Cezar, a former creative director at Virtuos. Virtuos was one of the support...

It can now either be called Layers of Fear or Layers of Fear (2023), which is not to be confused with Layers of Fear not from 2023 but rather from 2016. This is now the third game in the Layers of Fear series, with the second game being called the rather distinct Layers of Fear: Inheritance....

Maybe there is something super interesting on my computer that could eat up my time." You briefly consider playing a game. After all, you needed to finish up the first Season in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 before Season 2 launched. Y...

    See if you can do better than the wrestler himself.

    2K announced that their 2K Showcase "Never Give Up" mode for WWE 2K23 will let you relive some of the biggest points of John Cena's career. These moments tend to focus on the wrestling side of things, so you probably won't be reliving any aspects of his acting and musical careers, or his monumental work with the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

    What you will get to do is take on the role of John Cena's opponents in some...

    God of War Ragnarok Devs Didn't Know Allies Spoiling Puzzles Would Annoy You

    Sony's Santa Monica Studio called it an oversight.

    Developers working at Sony's Santa Monica Studio didn't realize that backseating companions would be annoying to players. None is the issue of backseating companions more evident than in Santa Monica's own God of War Ragnarök. Want a moment to look at a puzzle before attempting to solve it? Too bad because here comes Mimir or Atreus with an unsolicited hint.

    Earlier this week, MinnMax conducted an interview with God...
