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...

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 ...

    Rob Riggle to Play Frank West in Dead Rising Film

    First of all, I wasn't aware that a Dead Rising film was even a thing. If I did know about it, I've obviously forgotten about it by now. Secondly, comedian and actor Rob Riggle is being brought on to play Frank West in the film.

    You may recognize Riggle from his appearances as a Daily Show correspondent and for his roles in The Other Guys and 21 Jump Street, to name a few. So, what about this film then?

    Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Review

    Second verse, same as the first.

    Even after 30 hours spent with the game, a full completion of the normal game and a small bit of True Vault Hunter Mode played, I still cannot help but feel like Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is a glorified expansion for Borderlands 2. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved Borderlands 2. I spent over 148 hours in Borderlands 2 and still never explored all of that game's content. Therein lies the rub. Here we have a game that is mechanic...

    Paranautical Activity Pulled from Steam After Developer Threatens to Kill Gabe Newell

    Let the following story be a lesson in how not to respond when or if your game ends up on Steam. Mike Maulbeck, the developer behind the game Paranautical Activity threatened to kill Valve's Gabe Newell.

    Why?

    Because the Steam storefront accidentally listed the game as being on "Early Access" even though it left Early Access and was officially released today. That is literally the only reason that threat was made.

    I Am Bread - A Bread Simulator Game from the Surgeon Simulator Developers

    That's awesome. I Am Bread is apparently an upcoming simulation style game from Bossa Studios, the same team that brought the world Surgeon Simulator.

    Outside of this trailer, there isn't much known about this game at all. I mean, you're a piece of bread. What more do you really need to know (besides, price, platforms, and release date)?...
