Uhh, I bought the game and it is sweeeeeeeeeeet! Even on the easiest setting the number of enemies in it is astounding---like they pour in like a river.
Its just an insane amount of enemies.
If you like big weapons and a constant stream of enemies and s hooting anything that moves, you will have one hell of a time.

The whole point of the game is not so that you think "ooh, don't those enemies look pretty" or "wow, the AI on those enemies is fantastic".
The point is that you play the game and think "THEY'RE COMING RIGHT FOR US!!!!!! FIRE!! RUN!!! FIRE!!!" etc. It's supposed to be manic, not clever. That's what makes it different and that's what makes it fun (especially in cooperative ).

I will have to agree with Xiven on this. Cooperative mode is AWESOME!! Nothing is better than getting 10 of your closest friends into a cooperative multiplayer game with the dificulty setting set to Serious! It is truely awesome! I haven't had this much fun playing a multiplayer game since....I can't think of a better time! ; )

Now that sucks. In fact it's downright disgraceful. I have nothing but praise for the game, but charging UK people twice what the US have paid for the game is criminal. Are they trying to encourage w4r3z or what?

Yeah, Im thinkin thats a bit odd, since Croatia is closer to the UK than the US. Someones yankin your chain, but it aint the yankees.
Serious Sam is Doom in real 3D...that kind of feel, that kind of fun.
I would have to say that I am the 2nd person that doesn't like this game. I feel that the level layout of doom was much better and the fun factor was as well. The amount of enemies is just absurd, and it's very frustrating to have enemies just appear behind you. I do feel I should support these kind of developers too.
Well, we dont all have to like it. Ive never played Quake or Doom before, so Serious Sam is the craziest game Ive played yet. The amount of enemies on that in just first few levels is like facing off on some of the end levels of Half Life. Ive gone through it 3 times already, and love it. Its just a personal preference. You're opinion is at least what you dont like about the game. There was a disgruntled individual that didnt like it and blamed the programmers as being lazy. That was a controversial thing, and thats all the more I'll say, for fear of starting or being flamed.
One of the best FPS's I have ever played. If you like games that have some sort of plot and a story, this might not be the game for you. But if you like that feeling of paranoia, having a full pack of ammo, and a never ending supply of targets that just keep getting closer, this game will rock your world!
