Train Simulator now costs almost $10,000 with all DLCs You can buy a brand new car for less.
Meet Dovetail Games’ Train Simulator — currently the most expensive video game on Steam. The asking price isn’t much: a mere $30 depending on the region you’re in. It’s what comes after, if you want to get a good set of trains to play with, that makes the game run up a whopping total. (This is not counting gambling programs or being a whale in a mobile game like Clash of Clans, of course, where you can throw away millions if you’d like) As calculated on Steam itself per November 3, 2019, you’re going to need a grand total of $9,765.47 to own every single piece of downloadable content (DLC)…

Misgendering this Borderlands 3 robot could get you banned It's a they/them, and failure to comply is hate speech.
Borderlands 3 is woke. Not only has its developer, Gearbox Studios, become a bastion of wokeness in the game industry, so too have its products become vehicles for the company’s progressive ideology — as exhibited in all the references to feminism and “toxic masculinity” in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. The company’s latest effort to promote social justice in video games comes in the form of a robotic character named FL4K (pronounced “flak”) who, strangely enough, has gender pronouns of its own. Much like Twitter’s pronouns-in-bio echo chamber, FL4K is a they/them. Normally, this shouldn’t matter. It’s a fictional character, and writers are free to do as they like with their creations.…

CliffyB: my game sucks because of a 4chan hacker conspiracy "Fun fact."
Radical Heights tanked — hard. The ambitious video game by Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski (better known as “CliffyB”) attempted to bank on the Battle Royale genre of video games, but it came out several years too late with too few features to set it apart from the crowd. It didn’t stand a chance against Fortnite, which it borrowed much of its aesthetic from — and offered too little to set it apart from the likes of the numerous other games that try, and fail, to dethrone Epic Games’ mega money maker. Instead of simply accepting failure, Bleszinski now blames Radical Heights’ failure on 4chan. In a series of…

ESA doxes over 2,000 journalists and content creators attending E3 The accidentally released excel sheet contains names, e-mails, phone numbers, and addresses.
The Entertainment Software Association (ESA) has doxxed over 2,000 E3 media attendees by accidentally posting a list containing their sensitive personal data. The excel sheet, first revealed by independent game journalist Sophia Narwitz, contains the names, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and private residences of media attendees ranging from journalists to content creators. It has been available online and linked to on a publicly viewable page on ESA’s website since the most recent E3 in June, and only 404’d after Narwitz contacted the ESA to inform them of the privacy breach. We can confirm that at the time of posting, the list remains publicly available on archive websites. According to a…

As Minecraft celebrates its 10th anniversary, Microsoft has announced that the game’s creator, Markus Persson (Notch), will not be able to take part in the events, and it’s all due to his “comments and opinions” on Twitter. “His comments and opinions do not reflect those of Microsoft or Mojang and are nor representative of Minecraft,” said a Microsoft spokesperson to Variety, which broke the news this week. The spokesperson was also keen to inform the publication that Notch hasn’t been involved with Minecraft since he sold the studio and rights to the game in 2014. Notch hasn’t been one to back down from having an opinion, and it’s earned him…

Mortal Kombat 11’s ultimate bad guy is Trump MK11 gone corporate woke features covered up females, Wakanda, and Trump as the bad guy.
Mortal Kombat is the video game that triggered Congress for its display of gratuitous violence and sexy outfits, that made every “I’d like to speak to your manager” soccer mom literally shake in anger in the mid ‘90s, and it’s now trying to become every bit as tame as the frumps want it to be. The latest title in NetherRealm’s classic series of ultraviolent fighting games comes out this week, and it has been diagnosed with a bad case of corporate wokeness. Skin is for men The art director of Mortal Kombat 11, Steve Beran, has bluntly stated that the outfits women wear in the game were purposely toned down…

Apex Legends’ Twitch numbers down 75% in just one month Off a cliff.
Apex Legends, the game that looked like the biggest contender against Fortnite and the only chance to dethrone the reigning champion of online games, has seen its numbers on Twitch dip by 75% in just one month since it came out. At this rate it can only get worse unless Respawn steps things up a notch or ten. Declining viewership of new games isn’t anything out of the ordinary, but many were expecting Apex Legends, which surged in popularity following its release (following little to no anticipation leading up to it), to break the mold and usurp Epic Games’ popular title. A new report from StreamElements shows that at its…

Andrew Allanson, the creator of YIIK: A Postmodern RPG, alleges on The Dick Show podcast that a far left campaign against his game is spreading pirated copies and attempting to get Nintendo to issue a cease and desist for the game’s homage to the late Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata. The campaign is also spreading accusations of transphobia because the game contains the question, “What name did your parents give you?” and a “That’s our word” joke uttered by the main character after someone uses the word ‘ginger’ is also deeply problematic. The controversies being stoked by the genderbending activists has resulted in other developers deleting positive remarks made about the…

You won’t be able to run it on here. Instead, owners of the new console will have to buy into the long-dreaded “games as a service” effort that both publishers and console manufacturers have been trying to push on gamers for about a decade since everyone figured out that DLCs and microtransactions sell way better than single-purchase games. Microsoft first tried to go down the online-only…
