Serious Sam HD - XBLA and PC

[watusi]

New advert out for Serious Sam HD. It is highly amusing

[Dezm0nd]

hah was just about to post it on here, funny stuff

[Leon Retro]

I like that commercial, although.. I didn't think SeriousSam was an American game? .. Oh well, I like the series, so will buy this new HD version.

croteam are croatian i think. hence the name

Out next week on PC but I am going to hold on for the XBLA version which doesn't have a release date as of yet.

New trailer on Steam, too!

Talk is that it's coming in December.

[Hohum]

Want to give this a go, having played the previous games and enjoying them, but can't justify any more game purchases at the moment. It shall probably have to wait until sometime next year.

Downloading my copy from Get Games and Go for a tenner shame the download speed is ass.

Giant Bomb has a quick look up and it's hilarious!

That brings back some memories.

4 minutes til it's downloaded, i'll put some screenshots of how purdy it is

I didnt play SS2 due to me taking an overdose of painkiller (ho ho pun intended) and that kind of game exhausted me but I do hope they remake the 2nd encounter in hd!

[Dezm0nd]

Well it's downloaded and to my surprise it's the Steam executable.

I spent a good few hours debating whether I want it on Steam or not because I didn't know that the copy from GetGames is just the Steam version!

Happy days, saved 8 quid.

Edit: Seems to be a patch already, I just wanna play man!

[Dezm0nd]

Two hours seem to fly by pretty quickly! My eyes are burning!

It's still tremendous fun and while it doesn't look as good as I'd hope it still has that vibe of getting totally lost in the levels and blowing **** up.

Great co-op play, smooth as a button.

XBLA version bumped to January

BUT they're already working on porting over Serious Sam: The Second Encounter for release in early 2010

Might have taken a while to get here, but Serious Sam The Second Encounter is coming to XBLA next month

I will pick this up. I bought them on steam for about £5.00 for both, but they both run really bad on my PC.
