Serious Sam Double D

Since this isn't your usual Sam Stone outing and not even your usual platform shooter, it may seem like a risk at first, but once you play it, you'll be hooked on Serious Sam DD XXL. At 800MSP… this is one of those games that just, feels right.

The Gunstacker system offers an impressive variety of ways to throw bits of metal around at incredible speeds, and the enemy and level designs are (mostly) as creative as you’re going to see this year. It’s not too big on plot, but you’ll probably be too busy using ridiculous guns to mow down waves of grotesque enemies to care.

Ballsy cartoon guts and supersploding stupidity. [March 2013, p.89]

Serious Sam Double D XXL really is a 2D Serious Sam. The stackable weapons are nice; however, the gameplay and the jokes are a little bit too moronic. The multiplayer is ok, for some hours, but after playing a while, the game gets boring.

Crazy and weird don't necessarily add up to fun.

Dishes out more of the colourful carnage the original was well received for and stuffs plenty of additional content into this gun pie. One ingredient missing, however, is innovation.

Serious Sam Double D XXL is a mockery of games in general and to Serious Sam especially. The first games are really entertaining, so I'm afraid that this can be the death blow to my dear old Sam.
