Enjoy a stunning range of levels where you use your first person shooter skills to battle every enemy you face. With an AI called Cortana to guide you, a host of weapons you can find to shoot and a plot that is both intricate and exciting you have a stunning game waiting for you to play.
Serious Sam 3: BFE
Serious Sam 3: BFE is a first-person, action shooter that offers an explosive, bullet-hell-like gameplay on top of an already pretty frantic, arcade-styled shooting action. Kiting the enemies around is a skill you'll need in this game since it doesn't have the sophisticated systems that modern tactical shooters have, like cover or duck and roll. There are plenty of weapons, including a nice selection of melee weapons, for you to carry out your massacre with and you can easily switch between them whenever you like! Not to mention, the game has several new enemy types, including the massive Khnum as well as the massive AND hideous Scrapjack, in addition to the usual ones.Serious Sam 3 also has several game modes, including co-op multiplayer, versus multiplayer along with survival single and multiplayer. If you have your friends around your place, you can even play the game in split-screen mode and yell your heads off together when a monster caught both of you off guard. Best yet, creative players and modders are even given a level editor to play with. New mods or levels created can also be shared to the game community via Steam Workshop.
When it comes to crazy, almost non-stop action, Serious Sam is among the best game franchises to play. Serious Sam 3: BFE is their latest game and thus, it does look a lot better than any of their previous games, but you can still expect the same old (equally exciting) gameplay you've come to love.
