Serious Sam Double D really does breathe new life into the action-platformer genre. The controls are similar to the classic side-scroller Abuse where the character’s shooting direction is independent of the direction he is moving. This control scheme lends itself perfectly to the Serious Sam method of throwing insane amounts of enemies at you. Being able to jump and dodge while simultaneously shooting in any direction makes this less of a headache and more of a wonderfully frantic, white-knuckle ride that won’t get old before the game is over.
