Not one of the most revered action heroes, nor one of the well known. Serious Sam is one of those guys with a little niche that only a handful of people get, it's a real shame he's not just a little more serious.
And that is where Serious Sam goes wrong, the humour is cheap and often just gives us a shallow chuckle. If only he actually was a little more serious then maybe we'd like him a little more, but at least for him, the game doesn't take itself seriously either.
A FPS tribute to a bygone era of monsters, monsters, and guns that shoot forever until you release the trigger or run out of ammo, whichever comes first. With over 50 enemies onscreen you may wish to consider firing that minigun for a solid minute just to put a dent in the oncoming hoard that is heading your way.
Enemies vary from the cyborg twisted humans to the undead Kleer skeletons. Enjoy facing 30ft high demons throwing balls of blazing magic and lumbering blobs that fire more rockets than a New Year's fireworks display. Aside from killing everything you see, the other half of the game is dodging the mass wall of projectiles heading your way.
Serious Sam tries to be fun, and it really can be, as long as you don't rely on plot and conherancy. I loved the series, it's a simple game with a rough difficulty curve. Right now on Steam it's $40, but if you email me at hlifehotdog.at.gmail.dot.com, you can receive a voucher for 75% off! That's bonus monies!
Offer valid until 1/5/2013.
