Serious Sam II by 2K Games and CroTeam for the Xbox takes players on an imaginative adventure as they work their way through the game. And, much like the original, it will keep players engaged from start to finish. The hugely involved story line and extreme war like elements can bog down many first person shooters, but Serious Sam II is not one of these games. This fun and engaging game manages to take the genre and give it the same inventive face lift as its predecessors. Sam gets to go out with guns blazing as he strives to take out tons of different beast-like enemies. If players think that this sounds too repetitive, they are in for a shock as the variety of levels provides them with excellent opportunities to explore this vibrant and wacky world to its fullest potential. However, shooting isn't all that players do in the game. There are quite a few puzzles that Sam will encounter along the way that break up the monotony of constant blazing game play. If players tire of working through the game solo, they can access the Xbox Live capabilities and invite three other players to participate in the fun with them. This ability to bring in extra players gives the game a new and fresh angle that will reinvigorate their gaming experience. Serious Sam II is perfect for those looking to break out of the mundane experiences of many games and explore a gaming world that will keep them involved.
