Serious Sam is the title of a series of first-person shooters created by the Croatian development team Croteam. Originally released for the PC market only, Serious Sam's rising popularity resulted in the porting of the series to a number of different platforms, including the Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, Sony PlayStation 2 and Xbox Live Arcade among others.

The classic arcade FPS Serious Sam: The First Encounter is reborn in glorious high-definition for legions of long-time fans and a whole new generation of gamers around the world. Featuring dazzling visuals and revamped design, gamers take control of the legendary Sam ‘Serious’ Stone as he is sent back through time to ancient Egypt to battle the overwhelming forces of Notorious Mental and the Sirian army.

The glorious high-definition (HD) chaos continues in Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter, the highly anticipated arcade action FPS sequel to the Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter.

Developed by Croteam and powered by the Serious Engine 3, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter combines spectacularly enhanced visuals, including more polygons, higher resolution textures and more special effects like hippy and kid’s mode, with trademark frantic gameplay for a non-stop action.

Featuring single-play, survival and cooperative play and mixed with brilliantly updated visuals, the game continues your battle against Mental’s army with the classic over-the-top action, crazy humor and horror from the golden age of first-person shooters.

Combined with intense versus and team modes for up to 16 players and in over 18 multiplayer maps, demo recording option, spectators and dedicated server support, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter is a worthy successor to the original masterpiece.

I've still got the good old fashioned regular-d version. Running backwards in a circle while shooting things has never been this much fun.

Masa & Shirenu & Pika beat the game!

It must of been on some hard difficulty cause everything took a forever to die!

Sorry for the noise on the video, but it really was that loud, I actually had to turn the volume down on the video and put some music on later just to make it watchable

Haha I think that was the first time I was playing when the final boss fucking climbed on the platform thing!!!

Must've been because it took ages to kill everything! lol

COME PLAAAAAAY~

SSHD2 is awesome!

Left a game un-private while playing with shi, had a bunch of random people play through with us. Finished with 7 people total! Was complete chaos!

wut! you're not meant to finish it without meeeeeeeeeeee!

shirenuファクトリー · « **Reply #15 on:** May 20, 2010, 09:38:14 AM »

^ I guess we did it cuz it was Amp's birthday

Because of all the people we had to rush forward though, so it wasn't like super enjoyable! And everyone shooting the same enemies = booorinnnggg, they die so fast D:

But SSHD2 is a lot of fun! I like the themes much more, the levels are much more complex and bigger and WHUT, I want to find out more secrets and ahhh... WITHOUT having to rush forward like headless chicken lol

Woah, don't pin this on me! I didn't know we were at the end, the third world only has like 3 (long, awesome) levels.

Still gotta play through on Serious now, only did it on hard so far! ..and we should play some versus mode
