I've had Onrush filed away in my mind as a frenetic off-road arcade racer from Codemasters, and it is that, but there's more going on than expected at first glance. The vehicles have classes, my friends. As shown in today's video, everyone ...

Kingdom Come: Deliverance has built up a polarizing reputation for its obtuse systems, which are now made even more obtuse by a lovely mod called "Ultimate Realism Overhaul." Billed as a sort of survival mode that's found in many other open...

[Update: The original version of this article stated that Kingdom Come: Deliverance had sold 500,000 copies cumulatively. It has actually sold over 1,000,000 copies across all platforms, according to several *Warhorse Games* developers on...

I've played a great deal of role-playing games in my time, whether they be Japanese or Western, from your various Final Fantasy titles to the vast and open world Elder Scrolls games, and all things in-between. As great as these games are, w...

I spend too much time thinking about May 2010 and how both Split/Second and Blur released within a week of each other. Remember how crazy that was? These two over-the-top action racers -- not an over-saturated market -- squaring off j...

It sure didn't take the modding community long to capitalize on two of Kingdom Come: Deliverance's biggest inconveniences. Three days after release and there are already mods that alter the save system and the lockpicking. One of the most c...

When Kingdom Come: Deliverance is at its best, I'm lost in the most detailed forest I've ever seen in a video game, low on food, drinking alcohol for nourishment, all so I can reach the next town to sell my wares...because the last town hat...

Remember two weeks ago when we discussed Kingdom Come: Deliverance and the earmarks of an effective trailer? One day before release, Kingdom Come's back with a new approach and the same outcome. This time, it's a monologue welcoming n...

There's a reason all the best leaders give incredibly motivating speeches right before plunging into the thick of battle (or at least this is what movies have led me to believe). It's gonna get all those warrior guys completely keyed up to...

Announced back at E3, we're finally seeing more of Metro Exodus at the Video Game Awards in the form of a new trailer showcasing the frozen hellscape and mutants we've all come to love. Continuing to expand further on the novels from Dmitry...

Another day, another Humble freebie. This time it's 2011's THQ-published-but-eventually-bought-by-Deep-Silver Homefront. Or, "The Gang Solves The North Korea Situation." It's easy enough to nab. Just go to the game's page on Humble, add it ...

It's no surprise that Saints Row favorite Kinzie Kensington has breached Agents of Mayhem. She's built an entire career around getting places she's not supposed to be. Today, Agents of Mayhem added the "Safeword" DLC which sees K...

Hot off a $6.3 million Kickstarter campaign [squints] two and a half years ago, Shenmue 3 characters can now move their faces, as evidenced in the update above. Facial animations were actually implemented three months back, but none were c...

Volition (Saints Row, Agents of Mayhem) has laid off over 30 people, including general manager Dan Cermak, Kotaku reports. That's about 15% of its roughly 200-person staff and comes on the heels of Agents of Mayhem's August release.  A...

Much like the Vanquish & Bayonetta two pack I reported on earlier, multiple Eastern European retailers seem to have leaked a two pack of Shenmue and Shenmue II for Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Once again Alza has a listing, along wi...

Yesterday, the world finally got its first teaser trailer for the very long-awaited Shenmue III. However, the trailer elicited some guffaws from the back of the room for it's blank-faced, dead-eyed character models.Director Yu Suzuki, speak...

It's been a long summer dry spell of new releases, but Volition's Agents of Mayhem has broken the ice with its release today. PC gamers can pick up deals as high as 26% off from various digital retailers. Console gamers? Your...

Volition took Saints Row in such a nuttier direction than anyone could have predicted. But after ruling Stilwater, taking out the military in Steelport, being trapped in a virtual world and fighting aliens, and literally going to Hell, sure...

Super-cheery survival horror game Deadlight: Director's Cut is currently free to download on that bastion of cheap, good times for the PC, GOG.com.Tequila Works' bleak, post-apocalyptic wanderer is only going to be available at the low, low...

They're pitching it as the Humble Saints Row Bundle, but with extra games like Mighty No. 9 and Killer is Dead, this is really more of a Deep Silver dealio. Which, hey, it worked. They got my attention. Pay $1 or more: Risen 3: Titan Lords...

Micro Machines World Series wants to be Overwatch. It's an odd fit for a top-down racer to draw inspiration from a hero shooter, but that's what World Series does. The influence is immediately apparent -- from the different classe...

I've been hooked to Volition's Saints Row series ever since it underwent a major tonal reboot with Saints Row: The Third. The series may have been a victim of diminishing returns as of late -- you can only jump over the proverbial shar...

Well, it looks like those rumors last year were right. Sort of, anyway. There's a new Metro game, it's just not going to be ready for 2017. Phil Spencer announced that the Xbox press briefing would have 42 games, 22 of which are Xbox exclu...

Daniel Dae Kim may be famous for his roles on Lost and Hawaii Five-O, but to me, he will always be Johnny Gat. His performance as the mad dog leader of the Saints in the Saints Row series has become so ubiquitous that I almost can't separat...

Like a good little zombie, Dead Island 2 refuses to stay down. You could be forgiven for thinking Dead Island 2 was one of those games that got quietly cancelled; Deep Silver hasn't said much about it since developer Yager was tak...
