About the Game

Serious Sam 3: BFE is a glorious throwback to the golden age of first-person shooters where men were men, cover was for amateurs and pulling the trigger made things go boom. Serving as a prequel to the original indie sensation, Serious Sam: The First Encounter, Serious Sam 3 takes place during the Earth’s final struggle against Mental’s invading legions of beasts and mercenaries. Set against the collapsing temples of an ancient civilization and the crumbling cities of 22nd century Egypt, Serious Sam 3 is an exhilarating fusion of classic twitch shooters and modern gameplay features.

heheh

Ok, I played the first 5 levels and so far it feels pretty damn good. I don't know why they bothered to add iron sights to pistol and assault riffle. Good thing is you don't need to use those :D

oh smack! is it out already?

Those are some fairly hefty looking recommended specs, but then again there was always a lot of carnage going on in SS games.
And I've always hated how companies understated the requirements, so maybe they over shot it this time, I don't know.

Anyway, this is great news. Can't wait to try it out.

Yeah recommended is huge leap from the minimum requirements. Then again they have lots of settings in the menus in different categories (CPU, GPU & GPU memory).

Some people have complained that they can't play with acceptable framerates with 580GTX... Turns out dude had turned supersampling on :P I guess people just don't understand what supersampling means or just flipped all settings on without paying attention :P Very few games have the option in the menus anyway.

I'll add that the soundtrack is very nice.
