    Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass is a return to form for fans of the franchise, with more than enough new mechanics and contents to keep the formula interesting and fresh.

    Serious Sam 4 doesn't deviate from the other entries in the mainline series, and that's perfectly okay. The fourth installment looks and handles perfectly, though some players may succumb to the repetition before the campaign concludes. That said, it's still an absolute blast to play, and it should keep fans busy for quite some time.

    If you like the idea of running and gunning, feeling well and truly outnumbered but having a chance to defeat the odds then this could well be up your alley. If you require a bit more polish and seriousness (pun semi intended) in your game then this may be more down a dark path.

    Serious Sam 4 is fun to play – and an even bigger joy if you bring co-op into the mix. If you’re a fan of the series, then you’re going to feel right at home. If you’ve never played a Serious Sam game, then just don’t go into it expecting the same level of narrative as story-driven games, because you aren’t going to find it here.

    Serious Sam 4 is a no-brainer for fans of the series and is a game that fans of singleplayer/co-op shooters will likely enjoy too.

    Serious Sam 4 could have been a total reinvention of the franchise, a step forward to revitalize a series that still has to take advantage of this new golden age of old school shooters. However, this is a wasted opportunity: the same game, but with the largest number of enemies to fight. If you're looking for the same Serious Sam, then this new installment may end up meeting your needs.

    Serious Sam is looking seriously tired, with a new sequel that makes only the most perfunctory attempt to doing anything new for the franchise or shooters in general.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ждал 9 лет и не зря. Игра оффигенная, местами смешная, но иногда и печальная (убивство Михайла и Кенни), Сюжет значно прокачали, понравилась не навязчивая прокачка оружия, Франция из огромной картой шикарная, но хотелось бы больше зданий для осмотра. Байк офигенный, комбайн не очень если честно)))0) Моя оценка 9 из 10. Но ставлю 10 так как игру просто скоро засрут. А засрут малолетние и тупые д*уны. Им же графика не очень. Напоминаю: игра стоит в Стим 750 рублей, и это не ААА. Минусы то есть, среди них: баги с прогрузкой текстур, анимации конечно дёрганые, но тут извините ещё раз- не ААА. С текстурами я уверен и остальными багами разработчики справлятся. А ТАК ЭТО ТОТ ЖЕ СЭМ ТОЛЬКО ЕЩЕ СЕРЬЁЗНЕЙ И КРУЧЕ! Expand

    I hate running backwards! Seriously, this is a huge improvement compared to the previous parts of the series.

A bit disappointed in some aspects, as in areas I really felt like I was lost and the game would explode on me. Optimization problems did pop up a bit, but it wasn't anything too serious. However overall, I don't feel like this game is any better than the previous titles, in fact in a lot of areas it does fall short compared to them. A shame, as it could be a really amazing title.

Once in aThis game has decent graphics but it is boring, all missions are the same: backpedalling and shooting brainless waves of enemies. Once in a while you have to kill a big boss or use a mech and that's it, the rest is a stupid story (if anybody can call it a story) and endless waves of idiotic monsters. I wonder if previous versions were as monotonous and dull as this one. Expand
