The game's difficulty ramps up sooo fast. the option to disable the music is broken, i wanted this as the audio was doubling up on itself leading to unbearable noise. This game is not worth 4.99 and due to the difficulty so early on where weapons just dont seem to do anything i would suggest passing on this.

I have almost all the Serious Sam games in my steam library and bought this one to play because it looked fun. So with that in mind, every time I start the game it crashes and errors saying "Failed to load the game data. File seems to be corrupted." and for some reason it try's to open my printer? Really weird. So with that I can't recommend this game with these issues I'm having with it. I'm very disappointed.
