Thanks, Shack.

More shots of Serious Sam HD on CVG. If you’ve never played this, it’s your duty to complete it. It’s the only possible way to prove manhood in the 21st Century west.

It’s out soon. Hopefully.

You like HD. So do we.

CVG’s got some new shots of Serious Sam HD. It’s awesome. There’s no way this cannot be. You shoot stuff with big guns. And that’s it.

It’s out this autumn.

Croteam boss Roman Ribaric won’t be drawn on any specifics about Serious Sam 3 as it’s “too early.” However, he will say that the cartoony look of old has been dropped.

“”I can’t yet reveal any new features on Serious Sam 3, as it’s still too early,” Ribaric told Eurogamer.

“However, I believe Serious Sam fans would want to hear the following two things. First, Serious Sam 3 will play like the original Serious Sam. And second, we’ll leave the cartoony look behind.

“As for standing up to other games: simply, if it’s good to play, it’s good to play,” He went on.

“Serious Sam games belong to their own unique fast-paced FPS genre and should best be compared to previous Serious Sam games.”

Serious Sam 3 has no date or platforms as yet.

Croteam CEO Roman Ribaric has said that the firm may release Serious Sam on PS3 if enough people tell him it’s a good idea.

“We [have considered] doing PSN after we finish PC and XBLA,” he told G4.

“However, we keep hearing over and over from publishers, investors, marketing and other suits that players from one console, in this case PSN, wouldn’t want to get it later, let’s say eight months and seven days after, if it’s released sooner on the other console, here that would be XBLA. I would normally say that’s a lot of bull, but I will refrain here from my comment. What do your readers think?”

Ribaric said that the game is only planned for 360 and PC at the moment as Croteam couln’t find additional funding or a team willing to try the port in a short time-frame.

It’s out this autumn.

The first screens of Serious Sam HD, the XBLA remake of Croteam’s FPS, are up on EG.

There’s only one way this is going. And that’s the way of awesome.

It’s out later this summer.

Eurogamer’s reporting that Serious Sam will release for XBLA this summer.

The ageing shooter’s to cost 1,200 Microsoft Points.

Called Serious Sam HD, the game will “re-imagine” The First Encounter. It’s been written by original developer Croteam.

Which is awesome. No question.

Croteam’s CEO Roman Ribaric has posted on the company website that Serious Sam III is still in development, but it will still be a while before it’s ready for the adoring public because it still needs a publisher.

“Since the Serious Sam 2 was released in end of 2005, we have been working hard on a number of things, one of which is new next-gen ‘Serious Engine 3′ technology,” he wrote.

“We have also recently started the development on two games, one of which is the next Serious Sam FPS game. Here, we are pretty close in signing the publishing deal, so when that happens, you’ll hear it here as well.

“Since a lot still has to be done, especially on the next Sam game, we don’t have a firm release date on it yet. When we do, we’ll announce it here on our pages.”

Thanks, DarkZero.

Gamecock CEO Mike Wilson is preparing to announce the as yet unnamed Croteam game signed to the publisher, the boss has revealed in this interview.

“I still can’t tell you [what's going on],” he said. “I’m hoping to very soon.”

Croteam is the Croatian developer responsible for the Serious Sam games. The new title will use the Serious 3 engine, and has been described by the company as a “military tactical-action shooter” for PC and consoles. It’s coming out in 2009.
