Serious Sam 3: BFE (PC)
Serious Sam 3: BFE is a glorious throwback to the golden age of first-person shooters where men were men, cover was for amateurs and pulling the trigger made things go boom. Serving as a prequel to the original indie sensation, Serious Sam: The First Encounter, Serious Sam 3 takes place during the Earth’s final struggle against Mental’s invading legions of beasts and mercenaries. Set against the collapsing temples of an ancient civilization and the crumbling cities of 22nd century Egypt, Serious Sam 3 is an exhilarating fusion of classic twitch shooters and modern gameplay features.
NO COVER. ALL MAN.

Crisp visuals and legions of enemies struggle to invigorate the lackluster Serious Sam 3: BFE.

Holy crap. Serious Sam is back to barrage you with a myriad of familiar foes in the prequel to 2001’s smash hit Serious Sam: The FirstEncounter. The series is best known for being short on story and overloaded with teeth grinding intensity. SS3 has all of that and even has a semblance of an interesting overarching story this time around.

Thought? Creativity? Not in Sam's blood-drenched retro world.

Croteam's sequel brings old-school FPS design back from the dead but you've never seen anything like this before.
