Serious Sam 'Warfighter-Fighter' campaign offers free games to people who criticise military cover shooters

Devolver Digital, the team behind Serious Sam 3: BFE, are launching an attack on modern cover shooters - and offering a free copy of their game to 100 gamers who join their plight. In a rather personal attack on Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Devolver's official website has this to say:

And we feel we should point out there's no gulf in quality between the two games (pictured above). In fact, both Serious Sam 3: BFE and Medal of Honor: Warfighter scored 3/5 stars at review. Still, as an exercise in publicity, however underhanded, it obviously worked. You are, after all, reading these words. Hmmm.
