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...

    Dying Light Review

    The most enjoyable game with both parkour and zombies that I have ever played.

    Dying Light has been out for a while now by the time you read this review. Why the lengthy delay between release and when this review is going up?

I also like to give a bit of time for some launch issues to be ironed out and to...
