The original Saints Row was a competent enough game, but it mostly felt like a direct Grand Theft Auto clone instead of anything new. The sequel is where things started to get a bit crazy and is definitely the place where new players should...

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...

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...

[Update: Turns out I was actually wrong about Virtual-On not being on US BC. It was already made available a few months back, so it coming to Japanese Xbox One's is a sign that their own regional service is getting updates. That is sweet! T...

Epic Games is carrying its namesake well, turning its monumental juggernaut of a battle royale game Fortnite into what promises to be a massive haul for its pro players. The company announced that it will provide $100 million in prize money in its first year of competition, higher than the aggregate of other top esports games...

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...

My relationship with the car-jacking hooker-mugging series we all know as Grand Theft Auto began the way it does for a lot of people. Sometime when I was in middle school, a friend brought over a copy of Grand Theft Auto III. It was a weird...

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...

Every year on this day, the most American of days, I get to thinking about video game characters that are pure, perfect, hot-blooded Americans. The kind of stone cold action heroes whose hobbies include firing guns in the air while chugging...

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...

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...

Saints Row IV and Gat out of Hell have arrived on GOG in DRM-free format and as per GOG tradition, free games and discounts are offered aplenty to drive up sales. For the next 48 hours you can pick up a free copy of Saints Row 2 over at GOG...

"I am private property, please step away." The high-pitched voice is emitting from a speaker lodged in a saucer-eyed, cartoon squid mascot for a fast-food sushi joint in Seoul, Korea. I am playing as Daisy, a roller derby skater with rockab...

Saints Row IV is a wacky game as is. Each entry in the series pushed the absurdity further, and in this one, you are a gang boss turned democratically-elected President of the United States that fends off aliens using superpowers because wh...

Bundle Stars is running a pretty hot bundle with key titles from Deep Silver. Until Monday, August 1, you can grab a "Saints Row vs. Metro Bundle" for only $12.49. This comes with four games and one DLC pack. For the price of $12.49, you'll...

By way of IGN, we now know of the existence of Agents of Mayhem, a new game from the developers of Saints Row, Volition. It'll launch on the usual suspects of PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2017, and will feature a "comic hero universe" setu...

[Publisher's Note: This was an early-access article from our subscription program, now released for free as Overwatch is out. Leaky benefits! Thanks to our patrons. -Niero] I have never been a hero in a video game. Ever. I've been told...

As of today, you can play Saints Row IV on Xbox One via backward compatibility. This was to be expected, considering the absurd open-world title is a part of April's excellent Games with Gold lineup (and Xbox 360 games featured in the progr...

Deep Silver has just released a whole load of its back catalogue on to the PS Now streaming service. Saint’s Row: Gat Out of Hell, Escape Dead Island, Metro: Last Light, Narco Terror, Risen 3: Titan Lords, Sacred Citadel, and Sacred ...

I am very pleased to announce that this week is 100% bodily fluid-free. There’s no wee, no poo, no nothing. It’s been a totally wholesome, family-friendly week in gaming news! The most NSFW thing you'll find is the very existenc...

Less than a week ago I reported that you could check out a few clips of Volition's cancelled Saint's Row: Undercover, a PSP game that never was. I thought it was cool that Volition even let it out the door considering how maniacally protect...

Two of Deep Silver's best franchises, Saints Row and Metro (some would probably throw Dead Island in there), are no longer mutually-exclusive entities. Well, not as far as consumerism goes, anyway. A Saints Row/Metro digital ...

Another week, another wave of gaming news that’s almost impossible to keep up with! Last week we had dog poo, this week we have Jonathan Blow’s wee. I kind of hope that bodily waste doesn’t become a running trend in these ...

The games industry is a rough one, its expensive, fast, and merciless. There are no shortage of games that are quietly killed in their sleep mid-development never to be seen again. However, Volition has made the somewhat maverick decision t...

This week, popular digital retailer Green Man Gaming launched a Deep Silver Sale. The sale was OK, but nothing exciting (else we'd have mentioned it earlier). Things changed today as most of the titles listed below got a savings b...

With Hotline Miami 2 recently released, I realized I am really, really tired of games that belong in its genre. When I say "genre," I refer not to "action games" or "indie games" or even "violent games," but a subtler, more hypocritical cla...
