This game is just one of those all time classic shooters your library should not be with out. The graphics are simple and the action is second to none.

If you ever have a bad day or just want to blow stuff up. You must get Serious Sam Next Encounter.

A Good Game To Get For 19.99

Well, i have owned and beat this game and i gotta say that i really liked it. Beating all the levels on a different difficulty is enought to keep me going. I still havn't gotten all the gold medals for the extra levels. People say they beat and then they never played it again. Well, yeah! It's because they never played the extra levels or got gold medals. I have been playing it just recently. If you want to get this game then i strongly recommend it. It's a fantastic FPS game. IT has madness, non stop action, and just because it's repetitive doesn't mean that it isn't fun! It's only 19.99. So go buy it. you won't be dissappointed.

PRESENTATION: 8.0: It takes you back to the good ol days of the serious sam world in places such as rome, feudal china, and even.....ATLANTIS!!!

GAMEPLAY: 9.0: Once you pick up the controller you cant put it down! Adrenaline just keeps on coming while playing through more than 31 levels.

GRAPHICS: 7.0: This game has a lot of polygon shapes, but the environments are truly beautifully down. IT has polygon shapes so the game can run smoothly with all the enemies that come at you at one time.

SOUND: Techno sounds give this game an awesome fell of kicking butt. As soon as you here the kamakazis you'll be searching everywhere to make sure they don't blow up on you before it's too late.

LASTING APPEAL: you'll take this one out again for laughs and even to see if you can beat your scores. Worth getting.

Fast shooting fun!

I payed $4.99 for this game at a local EB games and it was $4.99 well spent. I got more than I thought I would. If you want a "serious" FPS that's kinda like the old DOOM except sped up 10x get this game! It has a very good multiplayer mode as well with a few maps like "the towers of decay" that will send you spinning wondering what's up and what's down and just which one of your friends is shooting you. 5 stars highly recomended!

Okay if your type of Game is just killing.

The game is quite fun for a some while but just gets old. The game's graphics are smooth and great, that's the good part but is just too basic, the ragdoll's (scenes of there defeat, blowing up, flying off, etc.) happens all the time, the zombies blow up and the dinos will fly off in front of you. The story, still can't figure it out. Controls are easy, wouldn't mind if had a sequel on the GameCube. Replay, up to you.

Not so great FPS

One word to sum up Serious Sam: Next Encounter and that is AWFUL!

If there were to 2 words then the second word would be AVOID!

Best Game Since Timesplitters 2!!!

My friend said this game is going to suck when I told him about it. Well I still bought it because I love shooters and when I first started playing it I thought the same thing that it sucked. Well I stopped playing it after the first level and we gave it a break. We started playing it again about two hours later and ended up on the 17 level playing co-op. Well after about 9 hours playing the game all I can say is wow truly amazing. The graphics in game are great but cutscenes are kinda ugggh. Controls are just like Timesplitters 2 and the frame rate runs at a solid 60 to 40 frps. Never is there any choppiness or slow downs. There are loads of guns, upgrades,enemies, aliens, over 40 levels and a great multiplayer mode which lasts a long time. This is a must buy even though it didn't get the best reviews because of the graphics on cutscenes. Gaming sites need to look beyond graphics and see how great this game is though, a must buy.

Fun ... if old school FPS are your favorite games

I played the original Serious Sam on the PC and when I saw that Sam was coming to the Gamecube I had to buy this game. I have been very pleased and will probably keep this game in my Gamecube collection for as long as I keep the system. This is NOT the greatest game in the world. It is not even the greatest FPS in the world. It is a FUN game for those who love the old Doom and Serious Sam type of FPS ... games that are rediculously violent and are full of stupid jokes that seem like they were taken right out of the Evil Dead movies. If anything I wrote here brings a smile to your face and brings up memories of happier times playing old an old FPS, GET THIS GAME. The super-fast frame rate of the Gamecube makes Serious Sam a MUCH more fun game to play than the original Doom or Serious Sam on the PC.

Seriously Bad!

Serious Sam next encounter is a seriously bad game. Nuff said.

Way below average game

Serious Sam next encounter must rate as one of the worst first person shooters to appear in recent times. Croteam created quite a reputation with the release of serious Sam 1 and 2, although they seem to have lost their way with serious Sam next encounter. Next encounter simply does not match up to the standards set by the other two games. Maybe it is down to the fact that the whole concept is simply too out of date to match up to the standards set by the other first person shooters out there at the present time.

My game cube deserves better than this has to offer.

I liked JasonMs words (more a beached whale type of chick) one to avoid (laughs). Sure it is super repetitive, i am not so sure about it being all that fast though.

The thing that bugged me most with S.S.N.E. was the overall amateurish look. I cannot quite put my finger on it, it simply is not up to the standards of my other game cube games in my collection.

One for the bargain bucket, that is for sure.
