SAW (Review)

Oct 28, 2009

SAW is a happy game with bunnies and flowers and cakes. Arch villain Jigsaw’s had a change of heart and is dishing out presents because… no, not really. It’s bloody miserable. It’s also hugely dark, crudely animated, has ropey combat, and the scenarios – despite getting more and more gruesome as the game goes on – start to drag after a few hours. Not much to like then? ...

SAW to rival Silent Hill, first screenshots released (News)

Will Saw be Konami's second great horror franchise? (Plus, first screenshots) (News)

Apr 2, 2009

Variety: Pyramid Head, say hello to your new brother Jigsaw.

Konami has confirmed an earlier Cut Scene report that it bought the rights to bankrupt publisher Brash's in-production video game based on "Saw." It will be released this fall on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 to coincide with Lionsgate's "Saw VI." (As you've probably noticed, Konami provided us with the first ever screenshots from the game as well).

Though there's obviously no sequel plans yet, the Japanese publisher is undoubtedly hoping "Saw" will become its second survival horror franchise, alongside "Silent Hill."

Saw video game picked up by Konami (News)

Feb 5, 2009

"Saw," one of the highest profile games left orphaned when Brash Entertainment went out of business, has been picked up by Konami.

Sources close to the project have confirmed that Konami has made a deal with Lionsgate, to whom the rights reverted when Brash breached its contract, and developer Zombie Studios. The game will come out this fall along with the sixth "Saw" film (I almost wrote "Saw VI," but that series is getting so long in the tooth I'm wondering if they'll take a cue from the seventh "Star Trek" movie and just drop the numbers).

Konami is an obvious choice to pick up "Saw," since it has experience selling horror with a little franchise called "Silent Hill." But the game almost took a very intriguing twist: no publisher at all.

SAW video game news is few and far between, but Bloody Disgusting has got some info about some stars and SAW alumni that will be in the game.

Saw Gets Cut (News)

Dec 8, 2008

Saw: The Videogame, the adaptation of the long-running horror film series, is reportedly the latest victim of the financial difficulties besetting Brash Entertainment, with the title now looking for a publisher.

Scheduled for the latter half of 2009 - coinciding with the release of the sixth film - Saw: The Videogame was to be an Unreal 3 powered take on the sadistic series. However, the game's developer and publisher Brash Entertainment has recently laid off several staff members and is in the process of jettisoning projects – and the Saw adaptation looks to be one of them.

Horror site Bloody Disgusting – picked up by Destructoid – is reporting that the game is out to tender, and although work on Saw: The Videogame is nearly complete it is now looking for a new publisher.

We've reached out to Brash for confirmation of the game's status, and will keep you updated when we hear anything back.

Saw:: More details on the Video Game (News)

May 27, 2008

When you think of video games adapted from movies, what comes to mind? Alvin and the Chipmunks and Jumper, anyone? Well add another movie to the mix, Saw.

In an interview with horror Web site Bloody-Disgusting, the film's producer Oren Koules spills his guts on the games, which he says

"the game company are not letting [them] talk too much about."

According to Koules, the game takes place in the time frame of the first film, is being written by original screenwriters Leigh Whannell and James Wan, and will feature the voices of all of the original actors.

Bloody-Disgusting writes:

"[Producer Mark] Berg also explained to us that the game will be a walk-through where you pick up weapons along the way."

Just what in the hell that really means, I have no idea; but "walking" and "weapons" are confirmed, which sounds like a good idea for a videogame.

The original Saw was released in 2004, and sequels have been pushed out like bean burritos at Taco Bell every year since. Saw V hits theaters this October, and stars Julie Benz and Tobin Bell. The Brash Entertainment videogame is set for an October 2009 release, surely to coincide with the release of Saw VI.
