I’m shocked. I’m seriously shocked since this thing came from a PR manager and not from a misinformed person.

Continue reading Ouch – King Arthur II’s PR manager believes that 24fps are fine for the human eye→

It’s a fact that Serious Sam 2 was a hate/love game. It had some pretty amazing ideas (and the humor was still there) but it was not very similar to the old Serious Sam games in a lot of ways. And if you are one of those who didn’t have the chance to actually play it, you will have so in a few days as Devolver Digital has revealed that the game will be coming to both Steam and GetGames this week.
