I've never played Serious Sam. Considering how much I love Doom and Painkiller, I think I should.
Also, I like the "NO COVER, ALL MAN." slogan. I wish another game featuring another over the top protagonist would've done the same.

Never played a Serious Sam...I think it's about time I change that. This looks pretty bad ass!
Oh, you've been missing out. It's definitely a solid entry in the classic Doom/Painkiller vein, with swarms of enemies fended off with exquisitely powerful weaponry. I'd definitely recommend picking up First and Second Encounter (but for the love of all that is bacony, stay away from Serious Sam 2... it didn't do the franchise justice).

For some reason it was the shotgun I found most satisfying to watch, reminds me of the ones you used to get in Time splitters.

I'm pretty psyched for this game.

Just so any Serious Sam fans can clarify. What exactly is the setting of this game? I've heard Egypt just like First Encounter, which admittedly puts me off a bit, I tired pretty quickly of the setting first time around. Will Sam be rampaging through more varied surrounds this time around?

Great. I go for almost two years, with no games coming out that I really wanted besides Portal and SC2, and now ALL of the games I want are coming out this fall. It's ridiculous. I haven't even had time for Deus Ex yet, then Serious Sam, then Skyrim, The Old Republic... on top of college.

The one thing I hated about SS is the annoying constant screams of the kamikaze.
I feared that sound more then anything in the game
I feared that sound more than any other enemy in any other game. :)

Especially when you couldn't see them...

I like the description on Steam.

NO COVER. REAL MAN.

If only the prices weren't Draconian on Steam....
Try living in Australia

OT: Pre-ordered the special edition, and man is this shit about to go off!! played TFE and TSE and enjoyed the heck out of both, not looking forward to all the reviews that will kick the dead horse of making puns and jokes involved with the word serious though. not only is it obvious, it is equally pretentious.

I live in Poland. The average income per capita in EUR is almost 4 times lower than in Germany, but we have to pay as much for games as they do.
