Official Formula 1 Game Shuts Down, Makes Worthless NFTs Even More Worthless

NFTs were already worthless to begin with, am I right?

An official Formula 1 racing game "powered" by NFTs and crypto, closed down last month. The game was F1 Delta Time and its closure spells bad news for those foolish enough to have spent even a penny on the ongoing scam that are NFTs.

See, F1 Delta Time was one of the first officially licensed NFT games out in the wild. It closed down last month, specifically it closed on March 16, just one day after it...

A Look Inside Blizzard Developers' Disgusting 'Cosby Suite'

Included in the legal filing by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing was a mention of the "Cosby Suite."

Today, while Blizzard employees were staging a walkout in support...

The announcement came directly from CD Projekt RED and it sees their upcoming FPS-RPG moving from an April release to September 2020. Unfortunately for the developers at CD Projekt RED this added development time doesn't mean less crunch as you may have expected.

Instead, the studio flat out admitted that this added development...
