Serious Sam HD - The Second Encounter - Games

[img]http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee253/Helloooo4444/25qstmo.jpg[/img] [i]I can't find a jacket for the HD. Does it even exists ? :/[/i] /!\ This game is currently on steam for a free complete trial until tomorrow (GMT). Get it now ! /!\ [b]What is Serious Sam ?[/b] [url="http://www.serioussam.com/home.php?&_send_date_=Go"]Serious Sam[/url] is a FPS, developed by our beloved Croatians from [url="http://www.croteam.com/"]Croteam[/url].The series follows the adventures of hero Sam "Serious" Stone and his fight against the forces of the notorious extraterrestrial overlord Mental who seeks to destroy humanity. Tired of games where you need to aim ? Well Serious Sam ain't a game like that for sure. Use Shotguns, Chainsaws, Miniguns and other Laser guns to wipe waves of enemies, always bigger, always faster, always more dangerous. This game also features Co-Op modes. Blow up aliens with friends. Oh also, don't worry about accuracy, the only weapon having recoil is a Sniper Rifle. [b]Campaigns[/b] South America: [code]Palenque - Sierra de Chiapas It seems that something has hit our spaceship and we were forced to land. I don't know if Mental has it's fingers in this. My sensors sensed some yelling, just before the collision. Fortunately, I have gathered a lot of useful information while we were onboard. I was connected to the main computer and I downloaded an enormous quantity of data. I still need to process a lot of this data. Regardless, according to what I have processed up to now, we still have a possibility to finish our mission successfuly. You see, Sirians left a back-up device for travelling to distant galaxies, if something happens to the original "SSS Centerprice". Well, SOMETHING happened! Yet, I can't figure out what that back-up transport vehicle is. What I know for sure is that it's somehow connected with the 'Holy Grail' and its magical powers. We need to get the Holy Grail and our mission will continue. So, everything is fine. Well, almost everything. There is only one problem: we have crashed in South American mountains, Sierra de Chiapas, near the ancient Mayan city of Palenque; that's around 400 years away from the location of the Holy Grail! Bad karma, I guess... Luckily, the Sirians left a solution for this problem. They left one locked teleport to each major civilization that has appeared on the face of the Earth. Therefore, one was left with the Mayans. My assumption is that it should be placed in the city of Teotihuacan, one of the largest Mayan cities of that time. I mean, this time. Anyway, we should find our way to Teotihuacan. Good luck my brave one! [/code] Persia: [code]Ziggurat Sam my man! Seems like we went even further in time. Here is some brief information about this place: Ziggurat is a temple tower of the ancient Assyrians and Babylonians, having the form of a terraced pyramid. It is old, it is ancient, it is ancient and old! And it is full of traps (unfortunately). You must find a way to exit that building... alive, of course. My historical data tells me that there is a large open terrain around Ziggurat with some houses and a road to Persepolis, the biggest city of the old Babylonian civilization. At the end of that city lies the famous Tower of Babel - our next destination. According to the spaceship database, that is where the Babylonians hid their portal. You will notice that we have no weapons except your basic ones. Obviously, the portal works only for living beings and some small objects. Bad luck. Whatever, there is no time to lose. Head onwards to Persepolis!

[i]italicize everything[/i]

[i]Yes[/i]

its not sam's bomb its called the serious bomb get your facts straight faeg

Sorry, I'm currently updating it to english to have all the correct names. [editline]10:51PM[/editline] There, it's done

I downloaded it on the free weekend, put cheats on and skipped to the last level. Very disappointing, doesn't feel any better than the old one and to be honest it doesn't look very good either.

So you skipped to the last level and it dissapointed you. Am I missing something ? Also, this game is incredibly fun with friends.

[QUOTE=pikzen;23261859]So you skipped to the last level and it dissapointed you. Am I missing something ? Also, this game is incredibly fun with friends.[/QUOTE] The last level was complete shite compared to the last level of the non HD version. I also heard that the Pit level is no longer any fun because the engine can't do the funky gravity it uses.

Game is great. My friend has it so I might buy it. I played the full game and its really fun.

Does the HD version change anything other than the graphics?

[QUOTE=ChaosUnleash;23262012]The last level was complete shite compared to the last level of the non HD version. I also heard that the Pit level is no longer any fun because the engine can't do the funky gravity it uses.[/QUOTE] Well I should try the old version, but I did the pit an hour ago, it was pretty fun, with robotic shit that fires lasers everywhere, we were like in star wars. [editline]11:19PM[/editline] HD only changes the graphics [editline]11:20PM[/editline] [b]You can edit the .gro files just by renaming them to .zip[/b] I'm sure we can do some modding :D

Is this any longer than the first?

where da harpy porn at?

[QUOTE=Whatsinaname;23267293]Is this any longer than the first?[/QUOTE] A bit, yeah. I bought it in the summer sale, so worth it.

I'd kind of like to buy it but I don't really have 10$ to spare and I'm somewhat worried it won't interest me for long.

[QUOTE=Zackin5;23267769]I'd kind of like to buy it but I don't really have 10$ to spare and I'm somewhat worried it won't interest me for long.[/QUOTE] sp mode can be easy as shit or hard as hell depending on the settings so you'll have quite a bit of replay value there, and there's the survival mode where you have to last as long as possible against waves of enemies.

[QUOTE=Ziron;23267631]where da harpy porn at?[/QUOTE] I remember looking for some in vain :smith: so i settled for night elves :smithicide:
