Hale to the king baby.
“Look Dave; if you don’t stop confusing Serious Sam with Duke Nukem,
I’m going to kick you in the F**king mouth.”
“Ok, Ok, keep you hair on.”
Sam is back in a proper sequel and this time he’s got a friend
or should that be, a friend that never spoke in the first game and to be
honest; I never noticed that the computer thing was there in the first place.
One thing that Serious Sam should
be give credit for is laughing at itself.
For instance, when you crash into the first planet, a voice starts to
talk to you. It tells you its name is
Nettie, (Can’t be arsed to type the full name), so you stick with the
nickname. Sam asks her how is it that
she can talk? Nettie tell him that
it’s something to do with having a bigger game budget and you just can’t top
something like that.
If the game is aware of is
faults and can just laugh at itself, maybe we should too and just enjoy the
game. The trouble is this is still
rush and shoot. The graphics are far
superior to its previous iteration but it still leaves me wanting more. I want more.
Maybe by the time Serious Sam 7 is released; someone will
realise that a good story and a little bit more atmosphere is a really good
idea.
