5 out of 5 stars Great Game   April 18, 2007
Let me say I've beaten all 3 of the Serious Sam Games on PS2 and Xbox. The first one I never seemed to like that much. You know, the first one for the Xbox. It never really held my attention because I sucked at FPS games when I got it so it was one of those take-out-when-you're-bored-keep-buried-in-your-cabinet kinda games. After taking it out like twice every month at the end of the year I beat it and really didn't care for it. I did not even feel like I accomplished something, ya know the feeling you get once you beat a game. When Serious Sam Next Encounter came out it was a different story. In between the time I beat the first one and bought Next Encounter I had become an FPS fanatic. As soon as I saw it I thought:"Great!Another one to add to my cart." I bought it and was amazed once it began playing on my PS2. It had cooler monsters, more guns, better graphics(of course), and more levels(even after I became obsessed with FPS games I still for some funny reason don't like the first Serious Sam for Xbox). The music was cool too(especially for that Chinese temple level). Once I beat it it was back to the store to get enough money for Halo 2. Once Serious Sam 2 came on Xbox I instantly got it as you might have guessed. I just recently beat it(the Cecil level took me a LONG time because he kept blowing up all the rocket devices). Sure the graphics are better than Next Encounter and there's more vehicles and more everything it still didn't give me the satisfying feeling it gave me when I played Next Encounter even though Serious Sam 2 was an awesome game. Sure SSNE may not have all the good graphics, enemies, levels, vehicles, weapons, and to some extent, comedy that SS2 has but SSNE will always have a special place in the heart of an FPS fanatic. I regret ever getting rid of this game.


4 out of 5 stars GOOD WORK!   January 30, 2006
Now, I'm over 13 but I'm just using this under 13 review thing because it is to much trouble to sign in...ext. Anyway, the game is really well done. The action in the game is awesome! So many aliens to kill and shoot up! The framerate is problably the best part of the game. It never slows down! No matter how many enemies are on the screen, it never slows down. Graphics are so-so. Neat multiplayer.It can have over 8 people at once online. And it is incretibly GORY AND BLOODY!! Althought the violence is cartoonish, blood still goes everywhere. There is even CO-OP! Me and friend were playing this game all night and HARD! Him and I had a blast [note to self: finish it next time he comes over]The game's number of levels are around 32. [the extra 8 levels are the so called 'lost levels'] Don't listen to the box cover, there are only 32. It goes by really fast. The only thing that took away that extra star was....THE NUMBER OF WEAPONS!! 12?! I HAVE GAMES THAT HAVE MORE THEN THAT!!! Buy this game, or rent it. mr.jawsbite.


3 out of 5 stars An O.K. game.   November 11, 2005
This game is alright,but alot of things are bad about it. First:graphics! The graphics look like they came right out of a comic book! [BAD]
Second:the nosies! Ohhhh, how they make me think twice about play it again.
And finally: music! The music sucks! That all I hav to say.
Everything else is really cool! LOTS OF GORE! ACTION! AND MULTIPLAYER MODES! But for hard-core shoots like me, this not your game. It's to fast and it feels really short. The bonus levels are acually kinda cool. Any way, this game is only good for rental.

Serious Sam is so good. The graphics are pretty good.Some of the sound is annoying, but over all it is a good game. And at 20 bucks, now thats a deal!


5 out of 5 stars Serious Fun   April 29, 2005

OK! This game does not look the best, but its very fun and controls great. And the online play is awesome! Played for hours and never got tired of it. All the online maps are great. I wish this came with a map editor like Timesplitters did. I bought this game new for only $14.99 and its worth every penny. Now if it was a $50 game then no I would not get it. I never pay $50 for a game anyway. Yes the Xbox Serious Sam 1 looks much better, but it did not have online play. So I don't now whats up with all the bad reviews. It seems to me that most games that cost $20 and below most people hate and think they suck. But I have bought tons of cheap games and just loved them. Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death is another $14.99 game thats great. To bad that game does not have online play. Then it would have been awesome. Anyway, if you have a couple games you don't play anymore then trade them in for this game.
