I was never into Serious Sam until I won the first on on XBLA a year or so ago. I bought the second one on sale and have yet to play through it. This one looks incredible and if it can look like that and have half the insanity of of the originals, it should be an absolute BLAST! Especially with 16-player co-op
TIME AND PLACE ARE SUBJECTIVE – BOOM! That was the sound of Serious Sam 3: BFE news dropping. Croteam’s Serious Sam 3: BFE is a glorious throwback to the golden age of first-person shooters where men were men, cover was for amateurs and pulling the trigger made things go boom. Serving as a prequel to the original indie sensation, Serious Sam: The First Encounter, Serious Sam 3: BFE takes place during the Earth’s final struggle against Mental’s invading legions of beasts and mercenaries. Set against the collapsing temples of an ancient civilization and the crumbling cities of 22nd century Egypt, Serious Sam 3: BFE is an exhilarating fusion of classic twitch shooters and modern gameplay features.
“Serious Sam 3 is about pure fun and unfiltered action,” said Davor Hunski, chief creative officer of developer Croteam. “We wanted to expand on everything gamers love about the series while adding some genuinely unique new features to really enhance the mayhem Serious Sam is known for.”
Trademark features such as relentless hordes of spectacular enemies and expansive outdoor battlefields return in Serious Sam 3: BFE at full force. Other features include:
Frantic Arcade-Style Action – The calling card of the Serious Sam series, hold down the trigger and lay waste to a never-ending onslaught of attackers or face being overrun by Mental’s savage beasts. No cover systems, no camping – it’s just you and them. All of them.
Mental’s Fearsome Legions – A new battalion of unforgettable minions including the rumbling Scrapjack and towering Khnum join the legendary Headless Kamikaze, Gnaar and Sirian Werebull. Your days of mowing down zombie Nazi space pirates are over.
Serious Melee Attacks – When an enemy slips by your wall of lead and pain, use one of the all-new innovative melee moves to drop an enemy right where they stand in the most violent way possible.
Pure Multiplayer Mayhem – Play through the full campaign mode with up to 16 players or drop the gauntlet and let the heavy ordinance fly in versus modes like Deathmatch and Beast Hunt. This is the next level of Serious Sam multiplayer and all hell is about to break loose.
“Holy crap, I am going to make a boatload of cash of this game,” said Fork Parker, chief financial officer at Devolver Digital, the Serious Sam 3: BFE publisher. “I mean that’s what this is all about, right? If this thing comes out in the summer my wife is totally getting the tit job she’s been asking for.”
Serious Sam 3 will bring the boom to PC and game consoles this summer.
When asked for further comment, Fork replied, “Bam. Tit job.”

So it's OK for Serious Sam to tout tit jobs, but Bulletstorm can't kill your dick. Double standards.

I guess it would've been more obvious if I had ever played a Serious Sam game.

The press release talks about Egypt and shirley you've heard the term "BFE" before.

The press release says "Egypt" once. I missed it when I skimmed over it.

Fair enough. I thought it was more, probably because I was reading "BFE" fully expanded.

Wow, 'bout time. I think they announced that this was in the works 2-3 years ago.
Love the title and I can't believe there are people here that hadn't heard of BFE.

Beautiful. I'm not a fan of Sam's design though. He doesn't look meat-head enough and the voice doesn't match.

Is this really 16 player co-op? Or is this going to be like the "8 player coop" that was promised in the subject header for L4D?

This is on sale on steam for 13.60 today only for anyone who still doesn't have it. Great game IMO

I work on my PC. I don't play on it. Therefore I "still" don't have it. $13.60 isn't enough for me to play where I work.
