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.

    LGD has just completed a three game beat down on iG. This allows LGD to move on to the second round of matches in the The International 4's Lower Bracket for Dota 2. iG simply goes home with heavy hearts and probably heavy wallets since they still earned $517,340.

  • Na`Vi Eliminated from The International 4 by Cloud9

    Na`Vi Eliminated from The International 4 by Cloud9

    Cloud9 has just knocked out Na`Vi from The International Dota 2 Championship just moments ago. C9 took the first game, Na`Vi took the second game, but Cloud9's early push was just too much for Na`Vi to overcome in the third game.

    This means that Cloud9 will take on ViCi for the first match of round two. Before that, however, iG will be taking on LGD for the second match of the first round in today's lower bracket matches. Despite being eliminated already, Na`Vi takes h...

    Upcoming Xbox One Update Adds 3D Blu-ray Support Before PlayStation 4

    You would think that the company that created the media format would be all over implementing some rather basic features into their own devices. Not so as the PlayStation 4 still lacks support for 3D Blu-ray functionality from Sony. Microsoft looks to capitalize on this rather serious feature omission by adding in 3D Blu-ray support in their upcoming Xbox One system update! Yes, Microsoft is first to the line in this generation of consoles to support 3D Blu-ray playback. This new functio...
