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.

  • Battlefield: Hardline Demo Appears on PlayStation 4 Store

    Battlefield: Hardline Demo Appears on PlayStation 4 Store

    A few minutes ago a new entry appeared on the PlayStation Store via the PlayStation 4. I snapped a couple of images for it but was unable to actually find a means of downloading the demo.


    As you can see, it's listed as the "Omaha" Demo, which is one of the internal codenames for Battlefield: Hardline. I wouldn't get too excited just yet as it's entirely possible that this is going to be used for internal testing or for a very closed beta that the public will...

    Arena Commander V0.8 Delayed for Star Citizen

    It's almost a guarantee these days that there will be a delay for some Star Citizen based release. This time, it's a delay for the Arena Commander V0.8. Chris Roberts, the face of Roberts Space Industries, gave the bad news to irate fans and backers of the nearly non-existent game.
    Today at 4:00 PM PST, I sat down with Star Citizen’s production leads for a ‘go/no-go’ meeting. We went around the virtual table, like a ground control team preparing to launch a rocket, and the

  • Epic Patching Out GameSpy from Unreal Tournament 3

    Epic Patching Out GameSpy from Unreal Tournament 3

    Epic Games has pushed out an update for Unreal Tournament 3 that shifts the game off of using GameSpy to using another master server. If you have the Steam version the patch should be coming soon and be automatically updated as games on Steam tend to be.

    If you own the game but not on Steam, here is what you should do.
    The patch will be more of a replacement UT3.exe than a patch in the traditional sense and once it's time to patch you will be able to download as a .zip file.
