	Serious Sam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The series follows the adventures of hero Sam "Serious" Stone and his fight against the forces of the extraterrestrial overlord Mental who seeks to destroy humanity.
		Serious Sam is well known for its relentless action provided by a few, simple key elements that quickly became trademarks of these games: large amounts of enemies, huge open areas settings, dozens of hidden secret rooms and a gameplay that was quite purposefully modelled around Doom's style of play.
		Unfortunately Sam vehicle is erroneously hit by the "Croteam crate-bus" and plummets down to Earth surface: Serious Sam crash lands in South America in the Mayan age.

		Serious Sam isn't about save the princess, but more or less to have fun and shoot anything that is moving.
		The witty comments of Sam are entertaining, but the dull moments set in when you are forced to attack countless enemies that all look the same, have the same tactics, and that you just got done killing a few rooms back.
		Serious Sam features a very flexible graphics engine, as you can see when you experience the game with vast wide-open locations that have countless enemies on it.

		Serious Sam is essentially a move straight ahead and shoot, with the exception of a few 'key collecting/find the button' type objetives.
		The choice of whom goes to Serious Sam who is becomes the final hope for humankind, he must return to the past and change it to save his race from extinction from an evil force determined to purge the galaxy of all intelligent life.
		Serious Sam is just a classic and a basic first person shooter with a banal story which is just a pretext to kill everybody or to lose time.

	Serious Sam - GameCritics.com
		Serious Sam is an interesting little first-person shooter, developed by a little-known Croatian team, that created some buzz on the PC gaming scene and has now made its way to the Xbox.
		"Serious" Sam Stone, though, is a nail-eating strongman with a cocky attitude and the skills, courage, and arsenal to take on the bad guys-alone.
		Sam has a dry wit and occasionally spouts out a humorous one-liner, and the entire game has a very light-hearted appeal (such as the difficulty select screen—the "easy" difficulty has a mug shot of Sam wearing a pink bonnet and sucking on a pacifier).

	GamingWorld X - Serious Sam Review
		An incredibly small number of gamers could find Croatia on a map prior to the 2001 release of Serious Sam for the PC, and an even smaller number would have predicted a $20 FPS created in that country would be one of the best shooters of the year.
		Forget the strategic planning of Ghost Recon and similar games, Serious Sam is an unapologetic thirty-six levels of arcade style shooter where the twitch reflex is king.
		As Sam himself says, "I hate running backwards!", but this flaw is relatively minor and really only results in an additional urge to keep in constant motion which is, all things considered, a good thing.

		Serious Sam is a game that took the gaming world by storm for two reasons; it was pure gameplay with no brains required, something the gaming world had not seen for some time and the price structure meant it was almost an impulse buy for some gamers.
		The storyline is almost an after thought in serious Sam but this is not a problem as the game has never been strong on the story telling side of things and rather focused on pure unadulterated action.
		Serious Sam Advance is a decent game and a good try at taking the popular franchise across to a portable system.

		More commonly known as Serious Sam 3, this true sequel to Serious Sam should be coming along in the second quarter of this year.
		The Croatians at Croteam developed Serious Sam and The Second Encounter, usually referred to as the sequel to Serious Sam, but calling SE a sequel is incorrect.
		The content found within The Second Encounter, in fact, was originally intended to be included as part of the Serious Sam 1 package, but had to be shipped as a separate SKU after pressing deadlines forced the developers to narrow down their ridiculous scope.

	Serious Sam II Hands-On (Xbox)
		The touchdown date for the Xbox version of Serious Sam II is October 10th, but you won’t have to wait that long to learn all about this raucous new adventure.
		And while they may not look serious, the forty-five or so new enemy types are as relentless in their pursuit of Sam’s hide as they are in pursuit of eliciting laughter out of gamers; it’s easy to laugh at a 70’s martial arts zombie, that is, until it slices your head off.
		All of these dastard and whimsical foes are met in Serious Sam II with an equally dastard and whimsical array of weaponry wielded by ol’ Sammy boy.

	the Junkyard: Serious Sam (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Serious Sam is no exception to the rule and if anything, reinvents a few of the attributes that we love so dearly.
		In a nutshell, you're Sam Stone, a special-forces commando who was somehow or another transported to a time when the Egyptian style architecture was still in and you're surrounded with horde after horde of mentally insane baddies who want to tear you to pieces.
		You see, if Serious Sam used an engine like that there would be no way that you could have literally 20 enemies (variety of models, shapes, sizes, etc.), gibblets and the large, open environments rendered so quickly and smoothly.

		Serious Sam is the epitome of those old school first-person shooters in which a lone hero is cut from solid stone and then thrown into battle against insurmountable odds.
		The mechanics for Serious Sam were established in the first-person shooters of long ago, before game designers felt compelled to weigh down their creations with drawn out plots, head-scratching puzzles and overstuffed inventories.
		The onslaught is relentless: At the front end of one map called “Dunes,” Sam faces down a battalion of bio-mechanoids and other assorted depravities during a violent battle that’s guaranteed to increase pulse rates.

		That tradition continues with Serious Sam II, the first original installment in the series in 5 years.
		Developer Croteam was rightfully applauded for the self-built "Serious Engine" used in the original games, capable of rendering massive outdoor areas and an enormous number of enemies at the same time.
		The sequel is powered by "Serious Engine 2," which is every bit as impressive as the original was in 1999.

		One nice surprise at this year's GDC was a sneak peek at Croteam's Serious Sam 2, on display in the form of a brief non-interactive demo running at both ATI's and Microsoft's DirectX booths.
		Keeping in line with previous Serious Sam games, all the characters were bright and colorful -- in particular two oversized behemoths built and outfitted like NFL football players.
		As is the norm for many graphical tech demos these days, the Serious Sam 2 demo also contained demonstrations of the game's physics, starting with the now-standard human-pachinko-machine: a series of bodies dropped off the side of a cliff, bouncing around wooden planks protruding out the side.

	IGN: Serious Sam II Review
		The original Serious Sam was a colorful, chaotic romp through a world filled with numerous inventive enemies.
		Sam's arsenal is quite a bit more inventive this time around but you'll still find yourself relying on old standbys like the double-barreled shotgun, the chaingun and the rocket gun.
		Some individual enemies have deadly attacks but the enemies in Sam II are dangerous because of their numbers, not because of their intelligence.

	Xbox Solution Review: Serious Sam Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Serious Sam is a first person shooter where you play through over thirty large levels, with tons of weapons, and even more off the wall enemies that attack from air, land and water.
		Why they named him Serious Sam is beyond me, this man is not serious, he's outright historical with his one-liners throughout the game and in cut scenes, which are plentiful.
		If there is a future Serious Sam, I would urge the developer to incorporate Xbox Live into the picture, and add an on screen indicator as to where out of view attacks are coming from.
