Blast your way through boredom

You're Serious Sam. You have Serious Weapons. To do some Serious Damage. And kick some Serious Butt. There you have it - the whole story and point of the game. Seriously. Sure, it becomes repetitive. And sometimes annoying. And you'll hate Marsh Hoppers. And you'll wish it had a simple "melee hit" l4d-like button. And it will be less interesting to play the game alone or without a co-op infinite respawn. Maybe, maybe. Oh, and you may definitely think, that you'd better buy an HD version for slightly more. But HD version is: a) more hardware demanding b) more "brownish" and less colorful c) needs Steam which is as awesome as it is sometimes bad. Oh, and while *slightly* more expensive, it's still *more* expensive. So, the best choice in my opinion? Buy both versions -_-

Not so Serious Sam

I used to own this game before GOG ever came along, and it is hard to find any real fault with it. It's a genuine first person shooter, but with a sense of humor, you can't really take the game to seriously. The monsters are ridiculously over the top, and range from giant bulls to headless henchmen and scorpions with chain guns. But the game works on almost every level, and is great fun to play without being to difficult. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned gamer, you will find this game to be a worthwhile purchase.

Old School Chaos

if you love old school shooters like Doom & Duke Dukem 3D then Serious Sam is the game for you. no stealth missions, no securing documents, no defending somebody or something, just you vs a legion of monsters & aliens. Serous Sam reminds us that above all games should be fun.

Simple Violence

Serious Sam is probably the definitive Co-op frantic-shooter experience, the same way Unreal Tournament is the definitive deathmatch frantic-shooter experience. It's really a simple game, with just enough plot to make you chuckle before giving you a gun and telling you to shoot things, and if that sounds lackluster to you, you're missing the beautiful simplicity of it all. This game has no story, because it's not trying to have a story. It's just trying to make you shoot things, and you do that a lot. Single player is fine, and plays a lot like similar games (like Painkiller and whatnot), but if you're buying it for the single player, you're missing out. The place this game really shines is when you're playing with at least one other person at your side (but it gets increasingly better the more people there are). It's hard to describe exactly why it's so much better, but there's just something about running circles around a group of rampaging skeletons to cluster them together, as your friend goads a charging yak to burst through the enemies you've just corralled. If you want a game with a story, or one that makes any sense at all, this is not the game for you, and if you're planning on just playing the single-player, grab Painkiller or something instead. If, however, you think the only thing that makes frantic bullet-spasms and skyscraper-sized monstrosities better is sharing them with a friend, this is the game for you.
