The Nintendo Switch has been shattering sales records left and right since it first launched back in 2017, surpassing the Nintendo DS as the best-selling system in Japan and outselling other landmark Nintendo platforms like the original Game Boy and the Nintendo Wii.
Popular WWE 2K24 Community Creator Hit With Ban
24.04.2024 - 18:42 / gamerant.com / Vince Macmahon / Wwe / J Brodie Shirey
The popular WWE 2K24 community creator WhatsTheStatus has been banned following claims of him violating the game’s terms of service. In addition to recreating the thrills of a standard episode of Raw or SmackDown, WWE 2K24 gives players a chance to create their own action with custom wrestlers, arenas, and even championship belts. These creations can then be shared with other users through WWE 2K24’s online community, resulting in a vast virtual library of downloadable content for any squared-circle enthusiast to enjoy.
One notable figure in the WWE 2K24 online community is WhatsTheStatus, a character creator and modder known for uploading characters that are normally locked to certain gameplay modes. Some examples include alternate versions of wrestlers featured in MyRise mode or the commentators. He has also uploaded versions of WWE 2K24’s female roster that can compete with their male counterparts, something that they normally can't do in the base game.
Unfortunately for the legions of players who enjoy his uploaded content, WhatsTheStatus has been banned from WWE 2K24’s online servers. Earlier this week, he announced on Twitter that his uploads were removed from the WWE 2K24 Community Creation page without warning. The next day, he revealed that he had been completely and permanently banned due to claims of “inappropriate content,” though the in-game message failed to state the exact content that triggered these complaints. Later on, a representative from 2K reached out to VGC to confirm that WhatsTheStatus had been banned indefinitely.
VCG also contacted WhatsTheStatus, who explained that normally users are given a warning before a temporary ban. WhatsTheStatus also speculated on the exact reason for his ban, which he suspects have been related to his intergender wrestling uploads. He pointed out that other users have uploaded similar content without much incident, and that other controversial downloads like former WWE chairman Vince McMahon are still available.
Ever since WhatsTheStatus announced his ban from the WWE 2K24 online community, players have rallied behind the popular content creator across social media, with calls to have him reinstated trending throughout the week. Only time will tell if 2K heeds these calls and restores his account, but in the meantime WhatsTheStatus has voiced his appreciation for his fellow WWE 2K24 players for leading him their support while he waits to see what happens next.
2K and Visual Concept's WWE 2K24 highlights a few of WrestleMania's greatest moments through a Showcase dedicated to the legendary event. The game also has MyRise, MyGM, MyFaction, and many new and returning modes and features.

Valve Updates Steam Return Policy and Closes Popular Loophole
Users looking to return a game on Steam may have a slightly more difficult time, as Valve recently updated the service’s refund policy to close a popular loophole involving “advanced access” titles. Steam is one of the biggest digital game retailers, offering customers a massive selection of PC titles that run the gamut from the latest triple-A releases to smaller indie fare. Of course, not everyone is going to be happy with their purchases, and Steam allows users to refund their games within 14 days of buying them, as long as they have only been played for less than two hours.

Spider-Man 2 Fans Point Out Missed Opportunity With Brooklyn Map
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 contains several great Easter eggs, but one fan recently pointed out a missed opportunity to include a real-life tribute to one of Marvel’s greatest heroes. While Insomniac’s Spider-Man games are in a separate continuity from other recent Marvel titles like Marvel’s Avengers and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, they still feature clever nods to other famous heroes like Black Panther and Doctor Strange. While exploring the open world of New York City, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 players can visit the Wakanda Embassy and Avengers Tower — and can even pay their respects to late MCU actor Chadwick Boseman at the former.
