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.

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?

    Starting with the pay, the report says that the average annual pay at FromSoftware is about ¥3.41 million or around $24,500 (USD). This amount is described by one anonymous FromSoftware as...

    Twitch Adds New Tool to Combat Hate Raids and Harassment

    A new "shield mode" is Twitch's latest effort to help stop harassment.

    Twitch, the live streaming platform owned by Amazon, is again trying to curtail harassment campaigns that have been aptly named "hate raids." This is where some loser gets a large number of people to mass "attack" a target, usually a streamer that is actively streaming, with chat spam that typically consists of personal attacks, slurs, and even personal information.

    Plot of Fallout TV Show to Run Adjacent to Events in the Games

    The show will be an original story and won't try to rehash the same events from Fallout 3 or Fallout 4.

    We're starting to get a few new details, slowly but surely, about the upcoming Fallout TV show that Amazon is working on. The latest comes from none other than Todd Howard himself, where he notes that the Fallout TV series will be a new story that takes place at the same time as the events in say Fallout 3 and Fallout 4.

    Does the end of the year bring fantastic presents or mere lumps of coal?

    Let's start first with the Games with Gold titles because we all know that these will be the weaker of the offerings between the two companies. For your...

    Charlie Day as Luigi Shines in Latest Trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie

    If there was ever such a stark contrast in casting choices, this would be it.

    On one hand, you still have the terrible choice of Chris Pratt as the voice of Mario. On the other hand you have what is possibly the most perfect pick of Charlie Day as the voice of Luigi. You get a decent amount of both, including the first time hearing Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, more of Jack Black's Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key's Toad, and more all courtesy of the newest trailer for The Super Mario...

    World of Warcraft: Dragonflight is Now Live

    Thar be dragons!

    The day that every World of Warcraft player awaits is once again here. The day in which a fresh new expansion is released for the MMORPG that they all love to hate. It's a day of hope. It's a day of server issues and broken addons. Most importantly, it's a day that is free of complaints about the actual content in the new expansion because that honeymoon period is oh so very sweet.

    Gotham Knights Adds Fan Requested Co-op Feature

    New co-op modes have been added.

    Despite all of the pre-release marketing for Gotham Knights showing off the four different heroes you could potentially play as, the game shipped with only two-player co-op. Whether this was an intentional design decision or some technical limitation remains to be seen.

    Now, a free update for Gotham Knights owners was released by WB Games and DC that adds in the ability to play with the full roster. You and up to three friends can engage...
