Serious Sam is an excellent game. I’ve not played it in years – I’ve been keeping this blog since late 2005 and it’s never been mentioned before – but I still remember all the different enemies. The levels I don’t remember so well, but who can forget the screams of the suicide bombers as they rush towards you?

Playing through this demo was a pure nostalgic rush, basically. It’s my type of shooter. Instead of long cutscenes you get optional text pages to read and while there may be the odd switch to pull, generally you’re just running around large rooms shooting things until they explode. This is a very good thing.

When I get some spare money I’m going to buy some points and I’m going to buy Trials HD and Serious Sam. Yes I am.
