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...

    Trials Fusion on Xbox One Runs at 900p with PS4 Version at 1080p

    Trials Fusion doesn't exactly look like the most graphically demanding game out there and yet here we are with another resolution difference between the two current consoles.

    Ubisoft has confirmed that the Xbox One version of the game will run at 60fps across all platforms, those being the Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 4. Unfortunately, it will not run at the same resolution. The PS4 version will run at 1080p while the Xbone version runs at 900p. This isn't the f...

    Below Shifts from Xbox One Exclusive to a PC and Xbox Release

    Below from Capybara Games was slated to be one of Xbox One's major Indie showpieces. That was until very recently when the studio revealed that the game will also be coming to PC through Steam.

    Below is a roguelike (tired of that term yet?) that will find the player making their way through a variety of procedurally generated levels. As with any good roguelike, death is permanent. The super stylized title is playable this weekend at PAX East, so be sure to check it out if...

    Rumor: Steam Controller Available in October or November

    A source close to PC Gamer has informed them that Valve's Steam Controller will be released in either October or November of 2014. This claim comes from a "trusted hardware source with knowledge of Valve's Steam Machines." Their source continued on to say that the completion of the controller would be the "final piece that would precede the availability of most Steam Machines." That seems to indicate that the Steam Machines themselves would then start to roll out at the end of 2014...

    Star Citizen Dogfighting Module Gameplay Footage from PAX East

    Last night, Roberts Space Industries held a live PAX East 2014 event to show off the upcoming dogfighting module for Star Citizen. Given the super alpha nature of the game, it didn't go quite as expected. There were crashes, both of the ship and of the game itself. However, a compilation of gameplay footage was gathered from the event from the live stream that should give gamers an idea of what the module will be like when it's released soon to backers. It's suggested you skip to around t...
