That right there? That's Sir Buttersworth. His hobbies include savoring life's most delicate fineries and single-handedly justifying the existence of Serious Sam 3's Steam Workshop support. Oh, and loping ever onward - to almost completely certain death - in dim hope of truly understanding that most top-hat-less of Others, Serious Sam. Can't forget that. But he is not alone, neither in that indirectly suicidal pursuit…
I know I played Serious Sam 3 at some point in the last three decades, but I'd be lying if I said I knew it was this year, or last year, or the year before... So many games, arriving so fast, sending me into a giddy tailspin of memories that all blend into each other, creating a miasma of settings, weapons, stories and muscle-memory control…
Hello there, Sam. Long time, no DLC. One of the nice things about putting words in your mouth and then regurgitating them for all the world to hear is that you can't verbally eviscerate me for that awful pun. Oh Sam, you're the greatest. So anyway, you say you've finally got some new content on the way for Serious Sam 3: BFE, huh? And it's…
Some companies' DRM is stupidly cruel, punishing only those who have legitimately purchased the game, and not those who pirate it. Well, most companies' DRM is that. Serious Sam 3's DRM is brilliantly cruel, punishing only those who pirated it. By relentlessly pursuing them with a giant invincible armoured scorpion. As revealed by Dark Side Of Gaming, only those who unlawfully duplicate the game encounter…

The only honest first-person shooter is back. Is Sam Stone a one-trick pony? Well, yes. That's the point, stupid. I've been blasting my way through the singleplayer campaign of Croteam's latest, and I'm ready to tell you what I made of it. Though, If I was allowed, I would make each and every one of the following 1000-odd words 'blam.' The game doesn't start until…
The third Serious Sam game is released on Steam at 6pm today. TODAY! That's so soon it's almost right now. I guess we are working on a review of it. Are we? I am imagining that the other members of RPS are sort of shrugging non-committally in response to this question, but actually I have no idea, because I am sat in an annex of…
New up-and-coming games writing wannabe Craig Pearson is with us this week. Say hello to the young Scottish chancer!Croteam's Serious Sam 3: BFE, which I hope stands for 'Best Friends forEver', has an exciting new trailer out where the guns are relegated to second place. In place of well-oiled gun barrels and polished, throbbing rockets it's the grim melee assaults that strut confidently around in…
Betrayal! Oh, the wound! Why, why, why? The eve of shamelessly excessive manshooting with a retro flavour but a hypermodern look was almost upon us, and then they only go and move the release date of Serious Sam 3: BFE back by a month. You're not going to be playing this on October 18 after all. I BET THEY DON'T EVEN LOVE US AT ALL.…
These Rich Knuckles / Serious Sam 3 helpline videos aren't ever going to stop, are they? As long as that man has breath in his body, he will just keep on uttering catchphrases, puns, mum gags and snarky digs at the competition. And reassuring people that 16-player co-op does not count as an orgy.(I heard a rumour they filmed 13 thousand of these videos back…
Part 2 of Croteam/Devolver Digital's crazed Serious Sam 3: BFE Helpline videos is here! And we're going to post it even though we posted the last one like five minutes ago or something! Because it's very funny! And it contains the much-speculated-upon answer to how one man can carry so many cannonballs! Have a good evening!
How many trailers manage to accurately convey a design philosophy while also being pretty damn funny? I’ve done some swift calculations on my abaci and mathomancy tells me that the correct answer is this one for Serious Sam 3: BFE. Despite pouring scorn on so many modern gaming conventions, the whole thing is so gleeful that it doesn’t seem spiteful, just completely and incurably insane.
Croteam have revealed the release date for Serious Sam 3: BFE. It shall be with us on the 18th October, and you can pre-order it now soon on Steam, GetGames, and so on. Should you? Well, take a look at the new in-game trailer below to get an idea.

I can still hear the screaming headless kamikaze. That's not a twee little aphorism. Despite the fact that I'm no longer playing the game, I can still hear the incessant roaring scream of the droves and droves of bomb-wielding suicidal maniacs charging toward me, somewhere inside my brain. I hope it goes away soon, because this would be no way to live.Rock, Paper, Shotgun is…
The fans, they demanded of Croteam that Serious Sam 3: BFE feature four-player splitscreen play. And so it came to pass. RPS can exclusively reveal that the forthcoming ultro-shooter will allow you to gather around a PC monitor with your chums and FIGHT. Up to three gamepads can be used alongside one mouse and keyboard to have four-player multiplayer and co-op. You can see full-size…
Some astonishing controversy from Friday that escaped our gaze - Devolver Digital, they publishing Serious Sam 3: BFE, have announced that they've scrapped their planned proprietary digital distribution service, Krundle, and instead are opting to use Steam. And not Origin. The press release, containing their reasoning and what could have been (including features such as "Free-to-Play-for-Fifty-Bucks games wherein the consumer is free to play the…

As you already know so well, the forthcoming release of Serious Sam 3: BFE is being accompanied by some specially commissioned indie games based on the Sam license. Already out is the demo for Kamikaze Attack, and coming soon is Serious Sam Double D. We have ourselves an almost-finished copy of that game, so I'm going to describe the first couple of stages to you…
A rather silly email appears alerting us to the shock news that Croteam's Lead In-Game Wall Graffiti Artist, Davor Kovač, has quit the company midway through the development of Serious Sam 3: BFE, "to pursue his dream of being quoted in a rushed press release". So now the team are asking players to come up with the nonsense that will appear on the game's walls.
Feature: AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH
Here's something you're seeing here first. A new trailer for Serious Sam 3 BFE, following the life of one of the game's many headless kamikazes. Because that's the correct way to trail an old-school shooter - a documentary about a headless man with bombs for hands. We're all agreed on that. So head below to take a world exclusive peek at the new video.

One of the most refreshing moments of this year’s E3 was a trip out of the noisy, smelly Convention Center to a nearby hotel, to sit down and play Serious Sam 3. Refreshing to be away from the noise, but also to just be sat playing a game (on PC, no less) that’s so focused on being a game.
