About Brutal Combo

Brutal Combo is a news aggregator. We monitor the gaming press, publishers and platforms, then put our own commentary and explanation on top of the real news. Our stories are editorial takes built from the sources we link, not original reporting, interviews or hands-on reviews, unless a story says otherwise.

Every story links the sources it draws from. If you want the full, original report, go to the source.

Acceptance of these terms

By accessing or using brutalcombo.com (the “Site”), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Site. We may update these terms from time to time; continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.

You may browse and share the Site for personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to scrape or bulk-copy the Site, interfere with its operation, attempt to gain unauthorized access, or use it for anything unlawful.

Content and intellectual property

Brutal Combo’s text, design, logo and branding are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright and trademark law. You may quote short excerpts with a link back to the original story. Anything beyond that needs our written permission.

Game names, logos, artwork and other marks belong to their respective owners. Their use on the Site is for identification and commentary, and does not imply endorsement. Where an image is shown, it is used under the basis recorded for it. Some artwork is a placeholder.

Third-party sources and links

We summarize and link to material published by others. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, accuracy or practices. Quotes and facts are attributed to their sources, and we can’t guarantee the sources are right.

Accuracy and corrections

We work to be accurate, but gaming news moves quickly and details change. Release dates, prices and features can shift after we publish. Stories are provided for general information only. If you spot a mistake, tell us and we’ll review it; corrections are noted on the story.

Spoilers

We try to hide or flag spoilers, but we can’t promise every story is spoiler-free for every game.

Accounts and preferences

You can use My Combo without an account; followed games are then kept in a cookie in your browser. If you create an account you must give a real email address, keep your password private and tell us if you think someone else has used your account. You can delete your account at any time from your account page. We may suspend accounts used to abuse the Site. How we handle your information is described in our Privacy Policy.
