![]() | This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English.

Non player characters is not noticeable. Enemy list should be better.
Why don't we start the "Notable Enemy Info" part of the article? Some info about notable enemies in the game. The pictures might be a problem though.
The boss section needs a complete revision. The way it's done (IE a list format of sorts) just seems too unorthodox compared to other articles that mention videogame bosses. Perhaps the smaller entries in that section should be rewritten as "normal" entries as opposed to the current list-like ones we have now. I'd do it myself, but I haven't had enough practice with Wikipedia editing just yet. 207.200.116.199 16:48, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
I need to know if any of the material listed below can be incorporated int the article:
Here are listed the most notable enemies from Serious Sam II:
So, what do you think? T-borg 18:33, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
Regarding the removal of the links to Croteam and Serious Sam in the See Also section of the page, I believe that these should still be there. Yes, they're both listed in the main text, but having them listed again under See Also benefits skimmers and those who simply want to view directly related articles without reading through the whole article and picking out links. -- Rodzilla 03:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Half of this article is within spoiler tags. Is this really necessary? Specifically, is it necessary to have a list of all the levels in the game? I'm not so much debating whether the levels names are spoilers, as some would consider them to be and thus it's best to err on the side of caution, but they're taking up a lot of space and really don't provide much useful information. -- Rodzilla 14:33, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Minor issues before I could give this a GA:
Other than that, I didn't see any grammatical or spelling errors, though once the other issues get fixed I'll give it another run-down. Dåvid ƒuchs ( talk • contribs) 00:10, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Ok, overall, I think its improved a good deal. I don't see any spelling errors, though I could be blind as a bat. Just make the minor changes when you get to them, maybe source what else you can. In the meantime, I'm passing Serious Sam II. Good job. Dåvid ƒuchs ( talk • contribs) 23:10, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Image:Serious engine 2 logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
