Serious Sam 3 PC From the purely technical point of view the Serious Engine 3.5 performs its job fairly well, with pleasing results in the complex alternating ups and downs. Polygonal models of the aliens are good and rich in detail, as well as the huge stages, enhanced occasionally by spectacular sequences such as the collapse of the building in the first level, which was destroyed by a huge alien spaceship. The textures are generally clean and give a good overall plot, although some of them recur, and when viewed up close appear a little flat. The Egyptian setting, alternating locations towns, deserts and groundwater, is rich in detail and is perfect for hosting the disproportionate number of alien waves that Sam has to face. The counting polygon is definitely noticeable.
The environmental interaction is restricted to certain areas where the enemies bigger and villains can destroy small architectural parts, but the physics is almost completely absent and even death sequences of the enemies are “scripted”, in the classic style of the old style fps . What is missing are engines the same way as the famous Havoc or exceptional Euphoria engine.
The title Croteam offers many advanced graphic options to make themselves accessible even on platforms not tough, but to enjoy the best of Serious Sam 3 is good to adopt a Pc latest generation with our configurations (i5 750 with crossfire of 5870, 8 Gig of Ram and laptop Acer Aspire 5750G with i5, Nvidia GT540M and 4 Gig of Ram), the result is great, however, point out some of the framerate hesitation in the most chaotic.
We note that in the game menu you can activate some of the most bizarre options that have ever been seen in a fps: too sensitive to the blood? You should look beyond, but Croteam has also thought of you: with the “hippie” in place of the red fluid will launch a curious flowers!
The soundtrack is composed of environmental issues oriental alternating pure hard rock clashes: the perfect soundtrack for the balsting old-fashioned. Good dubbing in English, even if Sam’s voice seems a bit ‘too set and almost guttural. The game is subtitled in Italian but not completely: the most scurrilous dialogues are subtitled in English as we have already seen in other productions. Mysteries of censorship. The sound effects are very well sampled and each verse or grunt also has a significant influence on the gameplay: the enemies are felt well before attacking, giving the player a chance to prepare for the battle that lasts a little later will face. Have a dolby digital 5.1 is more than recommended.
Serious Sam 3 is a product designed primarily to fans of the series and the hardcore audience can digest the difficulty exhausting and arcade gameplay tied to the beginnings of the genre. Forget the covers and headshot on Sunday, here are ground thousands of miles and tons lead, you slaughter endless waves of enemies and come alive at the end of the levels is an arduous but rewarding. Hustler, overwhelming and full of funny quotes (both cinematographic gaming), the title Corteam deserves to be remembered as one of the last gasps of a kind now belonging to the past.
