Serious Sam is just a fun series of shooters that I can’t recommend enough. It’s also hard not to laugh when the Beheaded Kamikazes start running at me screaming. Sam is basically a less annoying Duke Nukem, who reacts more to the situation and is not focusing on spouting off one-liners he stole from 80’s movies. Dialog from Sam however can be comedic at times, and I like that a lot. ![]() Serious Sam follows Sam Stone as he saves the planet from alien invaders. Plot and writing aren’tgoing to blow anyone away. With a modern lens these aspects may just seem normal, but at the time Serious Sam was doing things his contemporaries could not. What is important to note is that at the time, the things Serious Sam could on low end PCs was impressive, because it had large open areas with long draw distances and lots of enemies. Anyone not familiar with Serious Sam but with say Duke Nukem or Doom will feel right at home, because Serious Sam is not about reinventing the genre in major ways. Exploration is rewarded with secret areas filled with ammo, armor, and other weapons. Everything is polygonal because the series only started in 2001, but the gameplay is all about managing large crowds of enemies using a variety of weapons while moving around constantly to dodge enemy attacks. The Serious Sam games are very much old school first person shooters. I know I have, and while I am familiar with Serious Sam, I still feel like it is a somewhat ignored series, and I hope that people see this collection and pick it up. With the recent resurgence of Doom in 2016 I feel like people have been looking for more fast paced first person shooters with hints of exploration. Your games have meant a great deal to me and many others and brought me happiness in such difficult times.THIS GAME IS ALL ABOUT SHOOTING GUNS! MOTHERF***IN GUNS!!! Thank you for reading, and thank you Croteam for all your hard work to bring happiness to fans around the globe. I would be so ecstatic if this game was just playable at least for Xbox One players so then me and many other SS fans can enjoy a true collection of these games on their console. I love the cartoon art style, weapons, enemies, environments and even the storyline. ![]() All I'm asking for is either a remastered version of Serious Sam II or to make the original xbox version of SS2 playable on Xbox one via backwards compatibility as I know Croteam are not a fan of this game but I know there's many like me who absolutely adore this game and hold it up there as one of the best in the series. Years have passed and there's a collection of Serious Sam games which I'm very glad for but again it's only TFE, TSE and BFE and the DLCs to accompany these 3. But it really sucks that I'm able to play a beautiful remaster of TFE and TSE on my Xbox one and have just as much fun with it as before, but I can't say the same for Serious Sam II as this game has never been given attention for console players as it has never been brought to xbox 360 whereas Serious Sam xbox was backwards compatible AND remastered it to HD. I've been a huge fan of this game since I was a kid and I can't choose between this game or Serious Sam xbox (original xbox) as my favourite Serious Sam as I love them both.
