• Microsoft Is Reportedly Unwilling to Delay Crackdown 3 Any Further

  16-07-2018 22:49
  Crackdown 3 is infamous for its repeated delays, but its most recent one may be the last. A new report from Eurogamer claims anonymous sources have reported this is "the final time" Microsoft is willing to delay it.
  Announced during E3 2014, Crackdown 3's first release window was 2016, but it was pushed back to November 2017 for a planned launch alongside the Xbox One X. But following lukewarm receptions at E3 and Gamescom 2017, Crackdown 3 was again delayed to 2018. But that wasn't to be either

• Germany Reportedly Banning Online Preorders for Games With Vague Release Dates

  16-07-2018 19:41
  Germany has reportedly banned online retailers from offering preorders of video games with unspecified release dates.
  As reported by Eurogamer (via the German site Heise), online retailers can no longer offer preorders for games without being able to ensure an approximate delivery date, meaning games that are simply "coming soon" can't be preordered.

  16-07-2018 19:24
  It seems Amazon has facilitated the sale of some pirated games on its storefront.
  As was first noticed by Reddit and ResetEra users, Frostpunk and Surviving Mars were being sold on Amazon for just a few dollars. Seeing as these games usually cost $30 and $40, respectively, users suspected something was off. Redditor CodependentWealthy discovered that the sellers had stolen the GOG versions of the games and repackaged them with their own suspicious installer signed and published by "Ace Media Gro

• New GTFO Footage Shows Off Disturbing New Foes

  16-07-2018 18:22
  Despite the unfortunate name, GTFO is filling an interesting niche in the co-op shooter sphere. Left 4 Dead-style horde waves, but with an Aliens aesthetic and – according to this trailer – disconcerting enemies. GTFO comes from the developers of Payday, and it looks like it uses their pedigree for tense cooperation while radically switching tones. The new teaser shows off shadow enemies, which only have shape when defined by an exterior light source. Because of this, they
