Serious Sam 3 - Rating - EXCELLENT


I will update this with a review soon, but for now a few tips:

- To change the FOV, lower the console (tilde key) and type plr_fFOVOverride = 85
- The Pistol has unlimited ammo - the rest of your weapons do not!
- The Sledgehammer can kill nearly any enemy in only one hit - great way to save ammo!
- Press 'R' with the Sledgehammer equipped to do a 360-Spin-attack with it


Also note that this game is like Modern Warfare 3 in that it can render to a lower resolution rendertarget, then stretch it to your screen size for performance reasons.  So if the game's looking excessivly pixellated, check the "Performance" menu (not graphics!)


And finally, here's a few short videos of me playing the game, for you to get a feel for it:

Update: This is the game Duke Nukem *SHOULD HAVE* been.  This game rekindles the spirit of playing Doom and Doom II in the old days, it is some of the most fun I've had playing a first person shooter in years. Add to that the absolutely massive list of graphics options the developers give you to endlessly tweak (even including supersampling!), means you need to BUY THIS GAME NOW.
