    A compilation of Sam Stone's best adventures comes to Xbox. Unlimited action and enemy waterfalls in different scenarios of the world and history. It's time to get serious with Serious Sam Collection.

    Despite my griping about Serious Sam 2 not getting any love in this collection, I do think it is a great place to start with Serious Sam. Not only is it a set of great games, but there’s also multiplayer and co-op. This is a set of games anyone who has loved the new Doom games should at least try, and at the regular price of $30 there’s very little reason not to. Serious Sam 3: BFE still goes for more than this collection on PC by itself, no DLC. It’s a steal, especially if you can grab a friend to play the whole campaign with.

    Newcomers and vets of the series will probably find the Serious Sam Collection to be of good value and a reasonable HD port. The added frame rate and graphic options are a nice touch for this classic series.

    Sometimes you want to simply turn off your brain and shoot a bunch of aliens, and this is where Serious Sam excels, as not many brain cells are required to play or enjoy this collection. Like a movie that has a cult following, most won’t see what makes Serious Sam so special, but to those fans that do love the series, the nostalgia should be worth the price of admission, even if it’s priced a little high for little to no extra care or content added.

The concept merely being run forward, blast everything that comes your way, and try to survive the nuisance that are thrown your way for variation (too many enemies, platform sections that are as painful as can be, dark room where you can't see enemies, etc.).
    I'm a sucker for FPS but this is just plain bad. I've played the first two episodes so far, and gave up each one after a couple of hours. It's just frustrating : the difficulty is all over the place with close to no learning curve. So even if you overcome a hairy section of the level, you might not think "oh yeah, I was good!" but rather "hugh, what other stupid challenge comes next?"    … Expand

    Such a blatant quick cash grab from these developers. There is no reason that these old games that run on very old pc's should run at anythingSuch a blatant quick cash grab from these developers. There is no reason that these old games that run on very old pc's should run at anything below 60fps. Even on Xbox One S. The minimum specs for these games is ridiculously low. It just shows that no effort was put into optimizing these games for consoles. The fact that the "graphics" mode is locked at 30fps is crazy. It would not have taken much time or effort to prepare these games to run well on this gen's or last gen consoles, but they just couldn't be bothered. They also couldn't be bothered to include mouse and keyboard support. This is shameful. Don't waste your money and support this lazy behavior on the part of Devolver Digital and CroTeam. Wait for a really cheap sale or just play these old games on pretty much any pc.… Expand

    30 fps in arcade shooter game? Is this a joke? Did I came to a movie theater or what?
    Serious Sam HD runs in stable 200 fps on GTX 1060 and    30 fps in arcade shooter game? Is this a joke? Did I came to a movie theater or what?
    Serious Sam HD runs in stable 200 fps on GTX 1060 and Intel i3. Why the **** you have limited it to 30 and 60 fps? Bad job, devs, bad job. Shame on you.    … Expand
