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...

    Professor Layton is Coming Back via the Nintendo Switch

    The puzzle solving professor is back after a long hiatus.

    The last Professor Layton game came out a fair number of year back. There was technically Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy in 2017, but that focused on Professor Layton's daughter. The last actual "Professor Layton" game came out for the Nintendo 3DS in 2013/2014.

    Well, it looks like Level-5 is bringing the good Professor back as they announced Professor Layton and The...

    Performance Improvements Promised for Forspoken

    Though, there is no date yet.

    Forspoken is a game that certainly has some performance woes on both the PlayStation 5 and PC. The lofty hardware requirements on PC certainly paint a picture of a game that has been poorly optimized. Trying to play the game on PC at 1440p with just 60FPS on a 1080 Ti wasn't exactly what I would consider "a fun time." Settings had to be lowered considerably and FSR had to be set to Ultra Performance to get anywhere near a stable 60FPS. Even then,...

    Why You Should Choose The Madden NFL 23 Franchise

    Fans of the Madden franchise mode have had to wait years for EA to demonstrate substantial, concrete, and encouraging changes to the game.

EA Sports expects the game will be good enough to place Madden's face on the front cover for the first time in over two decades. Are you still considering purchasing?
