This is how you delay a Serious Sam game: a silly little in-engine gag that someone threw together. Forget everything you know about August – at least as it pertains to long-time-coming shooter sequels. Croteam delayed the Steam and ...

Devolver admits that it kinda blew its load prematurely with Serious Sam 4 information. It's coming to Steam and Stadia, and it'll get here in August. We've known that since May! We're not blowing any minds here. But, there's a new tr...

August is a bit of mixed bag for PS Plus subscribers. Mafia III is clearly the standout title, but reception to the game isn't particularly good. It does have one of the more interesting protagonists to come out of an open-world game in a l...

At a glance, Serious Sam 4 might look like an open-world game. It isn't! It just has some really, really big levels. And with Croteam's new engine tech, the studio can fill said levels with an absurd amount of enemies. Tens of thousands of ...

When I reviewed I Hate Running Backwards, one of my biggest complaints was the uneven difficulty balance. Due to the procedural generation, certain levels could end up being dramatically harder than subsequent levels and restarting meant de...

Serious Sam might not be a household name, but that hasn’t stopped the guy from appearing in a crazy amount of games. Developer Croteam and publisher Devolver Digital have always had a fondness for the character and that has extended ...

Before watching this trailer, I imagined what Serious Sam might look like in VR. I pictured a headless, shirtless, screaming kamikaze man rushing toward me, and that's literally what the video depicts. Glad we're on the same page! I'm also...

It's not just AAA outfits that will be heading up E3 -- there's plenty of small or medium-sized publishers involved as well, which includes Devolver Digital. It's just recently announced its involvement, which includes Shadow Warrior 2...

The Talos Principle is a puzzler that requires deep and philosophical thought. Serious Sam is, well, it's pretty much the exact opposite. That's why it's so excellent that the latter will be doing voicework for the former. Sometim...

Bundle deals are all the rage these days. Although there's a ton of derivatives of the original Humble Bundle, GOG.com outshines the competitors and delivers with its Devolver Game & Watch Bundle. It's great to get such a deal on games ...
