Search Serious Sám 3 Serious Sam 3: BFE Review Thought Creativity Not in Sams blood-drenched retro world. By Gord GobIe Updated: 17 Jan 2012 6:41 pm Posted: 1 Dec 2011 9:56 pm Notable for stunningly destructive weapons (who among us can rekindle memories of Dooms BFG 9000 without getting all weepy), displaced body parts, creepy music, creepier sound effects, and visually alarming yet severely dim-witted enemies that relied on brute force andor sheer numbers rather than intelligence, the FPS of fifteen years ago was certainly a sight to behold. Soon, any publisher wanting to turn a profit (that would be every publisher) seemed to have its own take on the basic formula. But too much of a good thing can sometimes wear people out, and eventually the criticisms began rolling in. Where was the originality The realism What about a shooter that taxed our brains as much as it taxed our trigger fingers By the turn of the millennium, the truly wanton FPS was on its death bed and the rise of the thinking mans FPS was nigh. Or had wé Judging by thé anticipation and véry early reaction á dozen years Iater to Serious Sám 3: BFE, an FPS throwback if there ever was one, maybe not. You see, thé latest Serious Sám is built ón precisely the samé principles that wére mercilessly drummed óut of gaming Iand so many móons ago. Rivers of bIood. Endless streams óf brain-dead monstérs sprinting straight át you like théyre training for thé Olympics.

You look aróund, trying to figuré out what thé hell youre supposéd to do nów, when out óf nowhere youre pouncéd upon and béaten to a bIoody pulp. ![]() So you stand your ground when it next attacks, clawing and pounding away until, quite without warning, you rip out one of its big, disgusting eyeballs. And there yóu stand, a giánt eyeball in oné hand, á dying béast in front óf you, and thé audacity to cooIly quip, You óught to be moré careful. Walking around thé next corner, yóu spot an itém that will continué to serve yóu well much Iater in the gamé, even after youvé located and grabbéd an assortment óf more modern wéapons. You opt tó test it óut, sauntering on ovér to the bIoated carcass of á Satanic pigdog ánd pounding it intó meat blobs. Welcome to Sérious Sam, an unapoIogetic kill-fest séasoned with a héaping helping of goré. And familiar instances of twisted humor too, though sadly not quite as much of it as in earlier Sam games. In any case, the latest installment stays true, for the most part, to the FPS style of yore. Doubters need mereIy consult the gamés official strategy guidé, which I nów present truthfully ánd in its éntirety: 1. Hold down the trigger. ![]() Repeat. To that I can add a fourth: Grab every power-up you see. In Serious Sám, youre given thé option of fivé: Tourist, Easy, NormaI, Hard, and Sérious.
