    Microsoft Admits There are Xbox Controller Shortages

    Those darned "supply disruptions" are also impacting controller availability.

    We already knew about the supply shortages of things like CPUs, GPUs, and consoles over the past couple of years, but here's one thing you probably didn't think about being impacted: Controllers. Due to "supply disruptions" Xbox controllers are also in short supply with many major retailers being completely sold out for all of June.

    Microsoft admits the issue to VGC, who says...

    Ready or Not Delisted on Steam (Update: Back on Steam)

    Developer says it's a Steam issue, but there may be something more going on.

    Ready or Not, a Rainbow Six-style tactical FPS has been delisted from Steam. The game's Steam page simply redirects to the main Steam Store index now, as is common when games are pulled from the service.

    The reason for the game being delisted seems to be up in the air at the moment. A concrete reason was not provided by any party yet. Developer VOID Interactive made a tweet along with a post on...

  • Poll: Are You a Fan of Paying More to Play Early?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Get that Premium Edition and play three days early!

    Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.

    Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...
    I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!

    I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.
