Love a bit of Sam .. ;/Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:43 AM
Serious Sam: First and Second Encounter on the pc are wonderful games especially with 16 player co-op! Unfortunately its only 4 for the xbla version but it should still be good fun. I'm sure it'll be well worth the 1200ms points.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:49 AM
I shat my pants when i saw this! AwesomeThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:48 AM
Is this as an Arcade game, or as an Xbox Original? Arcade version will be awesome! Achievements anyone? >:DThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:46 AM
i remember playing this a few years ago and it ws SOOO much fun!!! Ans 1200 MS points is great deal! @1 it says its going to the xbox live arcade so I think its coming to the arcade.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:50 AM
@8 XD Hell yeah! Since it only has 12 levels, it must be a an Arcade game. Maybe they'll be really long levels though, eh?Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:54 AM
Oh wow, theres no end to the wonderfullness that comes to the XBLA, well done microsoft, well done.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 08:57 AM
Awesome! I had a blast playing the PC version of Sam ... will definitely take a look at this when it comes out!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:11 AM

Totally mine!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:19 AM
This game was 20 bucks on the gamecube like 5 years ago. It's only depreciated 5 dollars in that time?Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:21 AM
@#17 - It's a remake Woody. HD graphics and such.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:23 AM

Damn, that really is quite an improvement in graphics! And it's still true to the original. For me this looks like it'll be bypassing the trial!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:26 AM
meh hurry up and give me MvC2 and BF1943Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:26 AM
Look ma! I'm a lumberjack!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:29 AM
Nice! Serious Sam was fun!!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:41 AM
That looks pretty serious.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:42 AM
Oh snap. Those screens look pretty awesome. I appreciate the graphics upgrade yet at the same time I miss the old dumpy gfx.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:42 AM
this was the nuts on the pc. with the duke gone, sam is the only thing that can scratch my ott shooter itch.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:50 AM
arcade game? the screens look very good. The original game was a fun blast everything and with coop this has to be a must buy. Time to start converting my friendsThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:56 AM
this game was hilariousThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:58 AM
This game was great.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:04 AM
Oh hells yeah.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:02 AM
Hell yeah Serious Sam was an awesome game back then, if they can keep the gameplay the same then I'M SOLD!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:15 AM
12 levels? Shame cos the origianl game had about 100 didnt it? It was huge but i suppose a hd remake cant have all the original levels :(Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:23 AM
I love Serious Sam Series, Might put this in my Buy list.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:19 AM
There were roughly 12 levels in the first encounter and the same in the second. If they cut out half the levels, I hope they didn't cut out metropolis. That was probably the best level in the game D:Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:24 AM
Friggin Sweet, I can't wait till this comes out. I think that 1200 MP is a little pricey, but I will pay it. This game was so sweet back in the day, I still have the retail copy for the original Xbox. Run-N-Gun @ its' best, just fast paced non-stop brutal action. Count Me In!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:08 AM
oh wow.... this gives me hope..... mircosoft please release halo 1 HD!! on xbox live arcade. could you imagine that? with online muliplayer and achievements?Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:58 AM
I really do lol because new gen kids haven't heard of Serious Sam and they downrated this just because they want BF 1943 =-/Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:04 AM
YES! Will this have coop?Hmm, I would see the achivements ggggggThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:04 AM
no the original had about 12 levels they were kinda big though i hope that they release second encouter as dlc and 2 as another arcade game and that they make another one for 360Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:15 AM
Fuck Yes one of my favorite orginal xbox gamesThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:17 AM
looks pretty good but i want the old Timesplitters on xboxThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:25 AM
Anyone else think it doesnt look good?Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:29 AM
Sweeeeet.. I really wanted to play this again but the graphics put me off, good job reading my mind Croteam. xDThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 11:43 AM

I loved this game on the Xbox and I finished it, Woot! It looks really good but, I'm saving mypoints for Fallout DLC and Marvel vs Capcom!!!!! Serious Sam is a great game.. maybe for less than 1200 I'd get it.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 12:36 PM

my name is sam scary shitThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 01:47 PM
Couldn't they just make a new one instead?Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 01:54 PM

oh. my. god. yes. "Double your gun; double your fun!"Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 03:52 PM
hell motherfucking yeahThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 04:04 PM
I hope they don't miss with the achievements.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 04:07 PM
OMG i didn't think today could get much better!!! Serious Sam!! What a classic! Looking stunning in HD. Hmm so Battlefield 1943, Worms 2, Gears 2 All Fronts, Some Fallout DLC and now this?? This is just getting better and better... What would really make me the happiest bunny in the world though would be Timesplitters 2/3 HD Revamp or atleast the Originals converted!! Hell yeah @41 we can keep hoping and praying!! Also a UT 99 Arcade remake would top it all off for me... A similar standard of game has been achieved with CellFactor PW which i think is great so i will keep believing on that one. Oh yeah and there's still Quake Arena which may or may not still be in development... I don't wan't to come across as greedy and demanding here by the way as i am just hoping ^^Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 04:07 PM
Fuck yesThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 04:26 PM
serious sam? never heard of it but it sounds awesomeThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 04:28 PM
okThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 05:18 PM
Serious Sam was epic!!!!! Hopefully on arcade so it would come with achievements!!! :)Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 05:20 PM
Hell yea, sexy sam's back :)Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 05:17 PM
woooot!! =D Seious Sam is back! man, that game was friggin funny! especially the suicide people! XD ''AAAAAAHHHHHRRRGGGHHHH!!!!''Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 06:16 PM
hell yeahThursday, June 25, 2009 @ 06:16 PM
Not a very good game,just another half ass fps but if the co-op is good then maybe but doubt it.Americans need to come up with more than half ass fps games and crap madden junk and be way more inventive like the japanese cause american games are starting to go blah! Thank god i also have a jap 360!Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 06:39 PM

@ 74 You do understand that this game came out in 2001 right plus you have MLG in your gamerpic which tells me that you like Halo which is a major half ass FPS.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 09:45 PM
@74 and 82 - its called a diff opinion, everyone has one, get over it. lots of love for Serious Sam, and rightfully so, hilarious fun especially in co-op.Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ 10:02 PM

Majesco today told Eurogamer that a Serious Sam remake would be heading to the Xbox Live Arcade later on in the summer for 1,200 Microsoft Points.
The reimagining, developed by the original developer, Croteam, will support online four player co-op, and feature 12 levels of dazzling, revamped action pack mayhem.
Serious Sam HD will be available late summer for 1,200 points. Can anyone give me a "hell yeah"?
We've just been handed a few screens as well. To check out the screenshot gallery, head here.
