Serious Sam
About the Game
This version of Serious Sam is based on Serious Sam: Gold , with several notable differences. Like the Gold Edition, it features levels from both first and second chapters; the weapons from the second part can be used when playing the levels of the first one as well. The levels are generally somewhat smaller than in the PC release. The most significant change comes in the form of a life system.
Story & Setting
Scoring 100,000 points grants the protagonist an additional life, allowing him to respawn at the same place after having been killed, rather than forcing players to return to the last checkpoint.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Combo points are awarded for executing specific attacks rapidly, contributing to the overall score. The save system has been somewhat modified, with telephone booths representing checkpoints.
Modes & Ways to Play
Player support includes Same/Split-Screen.
Presentation & Atmosphere
Audio support includes Dolby Digital.
