April 19, 2018

Devolver Digital/News/Serious Sam/Serious Sam 4/teaser/trailer/Trailers

News by Matt S. Serious Sam is my kind of shooter. Silly, self aware, and pure wall-to-wall action. It reminds me of the early era of shooters (which happens to be the kind of shooters I prefer), and now Devolver Digital and developer, Croteam, has officially announced Serious Sam 4.The…

Review by Matt S. Spiderweb Software isn’t a household name, but for years (and years) now the tiny outfit has managed to achieve something that most other indies will die dreaming of: establish a workable and sustainable business model. Spiderweb games are brilliantly niche, don’t overstretch themselves, and don’t get…

News by Matt S. I’ve got my eyes very closely watching Underworld Ascendant, and that’s mostly because of the talent behind it. Warren Spector (Deus Ex), Paul Neurath (Thief), Joe Fielder (BioShock Infinate), and Tim Stellmach (System Shock) make this a development team that has real pedigree and talent behind…

News by Matt S. A fair number of people are quite miffed that Nintendo hasn’t launched Virtual Console on the Nintendo Switch as yet. It was, after all, a major part of the Wii U, 3DS, and Nintendo Wii, and while commentary around those retro games suggest they’re not massive…

Review by Matt S. One thing I have loved watching over the last few years is the return of the classic simulator. After years of having the likes of EA butcher Sim City, and Atari drive Rollercoaster Tycoon into the dirt, it has been so refreshing to watch titles like…
