    Anyone know what the minimal specs will be?

    Lol I own all the Serious Sams and Painkillers, so I know that Serious Sam was the original owner!

    O yea its more colourful too hehe... one thing I liked about Painkiller was the physics and outragiously huge bosses... Serious Sam should be able to include physics so what about the huge bosses?

    This will be an awesome game. I thought SS:Second Encounter was one of the most impressive full-on FPS games ever, so SS2 is sure to be even better. Second Encounter is the only computer game that I was unable to finish without resorting to a cheat! I spent hours and hours trying to get through 'The Long Run' but I just couldn't make it so I shamefully (but only temporarily) turned on the fly mode to get over the hundreds of enemies.
