Looking through old games, I found Serious Sam, one I'd previously never played before due to it crashing down on my stuffy Windows XP drives. With the new 1.5 patch, however, it works as a charm. I thought I'd play a level or two, and ended up spending a few (roughly 16) hours in front of the computer charging through the hordes of monsters that came swarming at me as a rampant bull. The scenarios are beautiful, the arenas are large, and the plot is clear as apple pie. Of course I didn't take any pictures of the levels I liked best, like the wide deserts, the great port to Memphis or the sparkling oasis. Nor did I take pictures of the hundreds of monsters that came charging at me at the same time, spawned by the sands of time (too busy hitting the action button) but regardless, here's a few screens of the sequence.






































Thanks to the great site seriously! I just discovered, I bundled up with quite a few add-on maps as well and could probably, if I so desired, play through them in another sixteen hours the day after, but eh, I think I'll pass. Onto the game sequel whenever time allows me. According to the in-game stats I killed roughly 580,000 monsters and completed the game in not more than 6 hours (big lie though, I played from early morning to midnight, lunch/dinner breaks discluded, must've died and reloaded at least a hundred times on the last level, even in normal mode this is seriously a crazy game, much recommended). ;)
UPD: Whoops, resized all blog images to fit the blog and it seems these were resized in the process, so they're a bit small now (not the thumbnails dummy, the files you get to when you CLICK on them ;) ), sorry about that.
Nobody has spoken.
