Luckily for you the weapons are as bad as the creatures. I mean this game has not one, not two, but three headless baddies waiting to blow you away with guns, missiles or even by exploding in your general vicinity. From chain gun packing mutant scorpions to the large-mouthed horned toads, Serious Sam creatures take the cake for the strangest menagerie you'll ever find in a shooter. Did I say bizarre? Well, bizarre - or any single word, really - can't capture the truly disturbing creatures you'll find in seething packs in Serious Sam. And good thing too, because you're not going to have a lot of time to perfect your shot without getting overwhelmed by the seemingly endless hordes of bizarre creatures the game throws at you from the get-go. Excellent default controls make tinkering with the keyboard and mouse set-up unnecessary for all but the most anal of players.
Many weapons are designed to work well against specific enemies. The player picks up a huge number of different weapons. The game is linear, but Serious Sam 2's objectives can vary drastically in each stage. The game areas include jungles, medieval castles and swamps. The game piles on content in ways that most games do not even attempt. The player must once again stop evil aliens from taking over planet Earth. Serious Sam 2 does not have a deep story line. The core game play in Serious Sam 2 is great, and many people consider it one of the best games in the series. Fans of the other Serious Sam games might be put off by this game's cartoon-styled graphics. Serious Sam 2 is a first-person shooting game that often feels more like an adventure game.
