Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter - PC

What can I say? If you are a Serious Sam fan like me you are going to love it. I have played it several times at different levels. I don't do multi-player but the single player FPS are great. I also have Serious Sam 1 and 3. Love them all! If you like a good FPS, you will like this. The graphics are excellent.

Serious Sam is a Great game, I ordered this on DVD in hopes of just playing, Wrong this works with Steam, so you have to inrole and then if you need help you have to go and inrole in that phase. Their are no help books. I had seen some place that you can use controler, Not my Logitech joy stick, you have to use MS X box controler.

If you are a fan of the Serious Sam series then you should definitely check out the Serious Sam HD remakes before Serious Sam 3 comes out on PC. Get tuned back up for the hectic action.

Serious Sam HD The Second Encounter is a great game. The problem is that there are no indications that an active internet connection, a Steam account, and access to the Steam server are required in order for this game to operate. The package for this game indicates that it is a "PC DVD ROM Software" title Which leads you to think that this is a stand alone game installed and operated from your Windows PC. Valve Software and Steam have little if any interest in supporting their customers. If your internet connection is down or access to the Steam server is unavailable or you want to play this game where no internet connection is available, you are just plain out of luck. I also purchase Serious Sam HD The First Encounter and have exactly the same issues with it. These games are published by Valve Software. These games would be absolutely fantastic if they were stand alone and installed and operated from your Windows PC. It would also be a good thing if Valve Software and Steam actually supported their customers. Valve Software and Steam seem to be only interested in getting your money. Providing a reliable service or a useable product does not seem to be of any concern or importance to either Valve Software or Steam. I purchased both of these games twice. Once from Steam online and the second time as a physical media believing that the latter would install and operate from my Windows PC. Stupid me.I regret ever purchasing these games and would recommend avoiding them and all other games that require a Steam account. In fact I would recommend avoiding all Valve Software and Steam products and services.

So I got this remember how it was several years back. And you know what? It's as good as ever. The small multitude of weapons and various enemies are always fun to blow into itty bitty bits. I forgot how hard the jump in difficulty was. No health regen, no peak and fire, just you, your guns, and things wanting to kill you. Lots and lots of them.A lot of great written story and in depth background of the various areas and interactions, but it's all about the large battles and explosions and various scenarios you have to try to survive. Buy it if you like old school challenges, buy it if simplicity, buy if it you don't like having to sit for hours waiting for cut scenes and save points.

I have to repost problem was old files for demo in the registry so delete all entries in the registry and in program files for the demo. then reinstall game seems to work fine hope this helps

My grandson loves Serious Sam games and this one is no exception. I has gotten to where I can hardly use my computer for him playing Serious Sam.

This is a great game, not much different than the original except in HD!The co-op/death match are nice although it's different from the original and there's not much action in those online matches.Love the massive hordes of enemies and mindless destroying of all.If you like first player shooters and massive enemies then this game is for you.
