Rich Knuckles is back with a retrospective looking at the Serious Sam series since its inception in 1996. Why is he doing that? Because the game is part of this week's Humble Bundle where you can get almost EVERY Serious Sam game ever created including the Indie game series games for a price you name.
The weekly XBLA sale is the place I like to go to pick up a co-op bargain once in a while. However, it sometimes feels like the same games appear over and over again, seriously what is the problem? There is no problem, as long as it’s the Serious Sam games getting reduced. The man's back catalogue is all reduced by 50% until May 13th. Check out read more for the Serious Sam offers and the rest of the XBLA content incoming.
Xbox Live's "Deals of the Week" can be hit or miss. Next week is a big hit for fans of old school first person shooters. The Serious Sam franchise isn't fancy, but it gets the job done. This is a meat and potatoes shooter for those of us who enjoy our meat bloody and our potatoes mashed. Wait, that doesn't sound right...
Amazon has a serious deal for Serious Sam fans with the Serious Sam Serious bundle. Seriously.
Man, there's been a lot of Serious Sam news lately. First there was story about Serious Sam 3: BFE and Serious Sam: Double D XXL coming to the XBLA this fall. Then Amazon announced a big sale on Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter and its new accompanying DLC. Not to be outdone, Steam is having their own Serious Sam sale.
Amazon is once again holding a sale on downloadable titles for the PC, offering some truly killer deals on games including some popular co-op titles. The Serious Sam series seems to be the centerpiece with Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter, and Serious Sam 3: BFE all available for 75% off. Co-Op friendly 4 packs of the HD remakes are available for $10 and $15 for the first and second respectively, while SS3 is available in a 4 pack for $30.
Croteam have announced that PC version of Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter is getting new DLC on May 15th called "Legend of the Beast."

As you surely known by now, there’s a massive Xbox Live Arcade game sale going on this week that’s open to all Xbox Live members, even the less fortunate ones who only have Silver accounts. The rumors of a one-day only sale have proven true as well (High five, Samoza!), with four XBLA titles receiving extra special discounts today (Friday, September 30). Only one of those games supports co-op, but it’s worth a look: Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter is 66% off the regular price.
Today we've got a great giveaway for our dedicated Co-Optimus readers! We're giving away five copies of Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter on Steam to five lucky readers. You may be asking yourself why we'd be giving away the game now, almost two years after it was released. That's because if you decide to purchase the upcoming Serious Sam 3: BFE through Steam and own any previous Sam product, you'll get 10% off. It's like we're not only giving away a game, but giving you free money. Sweet!
