In Lithuania they even tried to ban The Simpsons and Harry Potter from airing before 11 PM :O They failed...

*Fiendian* · 10-22-2009, 06:10 PM

Are the Simpsons meant for young kids to begin with? My 8 year old sister loves watching them though.

Devolver Digital Tweet: "Fresh new artist from the official Serious Sam HD soundtrack. BANGS http://bit.ly/tONdk"

Is this serious?

Holy sweet mother of cheese! I heard it and I quickly exited. I do hope they aren't serious...they're just joking, right? I do hope so.

Say it ain't so, Digital Devolver. Someone tweet them, as I don't do twitter.

*Fiendian* · 10-28-2009, 11:14 AM

This must be a joke.

*Purple Psycho Sandwich* · 11-08-2009, 05:50 PM

Check out DD's latest tweet, he thanks all those serious enough to make SSHD a top seller on Steam already!

It seems SSHD is gonna sell extremely well

*Gimli* · 11-09-2009, 11:45 AM

Do note that this is weekly sales, not all time sales.

(I'm saying that because I made that mistake once

)

I wish.
I wish unlike the other SS games that one would sell well.
Never saw more than 10 topics about it (and yeah, it's not alot at all in jewish forums) when GTA(the ones that doesn't have a section) get atleast 1 topic per two days and Assasin Creed 2 gets more than 20 every day.
Serious Sam is a great game! but croteam doesn't make noise when it's coming out unlike Assasin Creed 2 and God Of War III which make so much noise.
Serious Sam gets released quiet! You need to create a little Demo like God of war III got. so people wonder "What the hell is going to be after this?" or "It's amazing!" Croteam should pay much more attention to public relations.

*Gimli* · 11-09-2009, 01:06 PM

SS is typically not a huge seller, but hey it doesn't matter as long as it makes a profit.

*Fiendian* · 11-09-2009, 01:25 PM

As far as I know it is not in Croteam's (financial) interest if the game sells well or not, the publisher hands out paychecks regardless. So if I'm right about that it would be the publisher that hires people to do public relations, they are the ones that sponsor the project with millions of dollars after all (manufacturing, paying the development team, etc.), I would imagine they want to get that amount back and more.

*Gimli* · 11-09-2009, 01:43 PM

I think you are wrong, but not 100% sure.

A game developer to my knowledge gets paid by completed milestones. However, they also get paid in royalties directly from sales. Royalties means that they get a percentage from every sale. That's what CT was living on between SS 2 and Devolver Digital/Gamecock stepped in.

*GeNeRiC_DeTeCteD* · 11-10-2009, 03:55 PM

But really, don't you think it would be much better if it WILL be a huge seller? a competition to Assasin's Creed? (maybe it's just a dream but it feels good to think about it)??

someguyintights · 11-10-2009, 10:38 PM

Serious Sam is a fantastic game, but sometimes i feel it needs more attention. i agree, that would be nice if it is competition to assassin's creed. it has all the key components to a great shooter. big guns, lots and lots of enemies, and co-op play! who wouldn't love it???!!

*Finzy* · 11-11-2009, 10:32 AM

SS:HD will probably sell alright and bring good profits, especially thanks to the improved marketing, but I doubt any of the games in the series will reach the same level of popularity as the big titles on the market. There's simply too much competition. And it's okay anyways, SS doesn't neccessarily need to be maxed out with the same amount of depth, that would break its style.

*Fiendian* · 11-11-2009, 12:26 PM

I thought the marketing is a vast improvement over what we've seen in the past, so if it will only get better in the future, Serious Sam has good times ahead.

someguyintights · 11-11-2009, 10:00 PM

No matter what, ill always play it!!

*Purple Psycho Sandwich* · 11-11-2009, 10:20 PM

Serious Sam forever (not referring the mod..), guys.

I do hope SSHD for PC is enough popular, so a lot of people outside this community will make maps and maps...and once they do, we should lead them to this site.

Also, what map are you working on anyway?
