User Rating: 9.3 | Serious Sam: The Second Encounter PC
Serious Same: The Second Encounter. This is the sequel to the “GameSpot 2001 PC game of the year”. The first game was so good that there had to be a second. It just stands to reason. The fold at Croteam new they had a fast pasted, very intensive FPS following from the start. Game two has a special power-up that looks like a round, black, bomb with a fuse. That a big-time power-up and should be saved until the situation becomes very drastic. Other new weapons include the Raptor 16 mm sniper gun, XOP Flamethrower (continuous napalm), and Bonecracker P-LAH Chainsaw. The demonic critters are basically the same as the first game and they still come in droves. About the time one thinks to rest, BAM, the critters are coming from everywhere again. The game is serious carnage, serious mayhem, and serious destructive forces on the gamers’ part. As in the first game the graphics far out do those of more popular and more expensive games of the time. The white tee shirt, blue jeans, and red tennis shoes of the main character take a hero figure to a new level. Overall, if you like VERY fast pasted killing at the FPS level, this is your game series.
