It's a good game, but a lot of people smack the First Encounter down because it doesn't have as many mods and it doesn't have weapons and enemies. I would rather play TFE than TSE, but that's my opinion.

Has the flow and intense action as a boomer shooter, all with a very fun array of weapons to use and enemies of all kinds that require you to not only be fast but also smart in your course of action. I had a lot of fun with this game and its cheesy charm only adds to the fun, especially John Dick's voice acting

The ultimate Serious Sam experience: incredible setpieces, good artstyle, much weapon and enemy variety, large amount of content, it's just great. I recommend this over the HD version for 2 reasons: 1) The HD version doesn't have variable gravity, rendering a few areas in the game very underwhelming compared to the original. 2) Only in the original can you shoot yourself with your own cannonball and die instantly. If you prefer the HD version, you will have just as much fun, but a few moments are less spectacular. So play this one for singleplayer. If you want to go for multiplayer, the HD version is definitely recommended.
