Serious Sam 4

  • Just the sheer hilariousness of the A.A.A. Team placing more emphasis on good one-liners (to the point of having heated debates over them) than the action on the battlefield.
  • Kenny finally having a weapon near the end of Chapter 2. After killing a Gnaar, he loses a shoe. The rest of Kenny's existence is spent mocking him for doing that "crappy one liner".
  • Rodriguez asks Hellfire if her and Sam "did it" while in a helicopter while fighting Valkyries, Hellfire tells him the rumor isn't true-there were no valkyries.
  • In one of the sidequests in Chapter 3 Sam finds the Time Warp item and the professor suggests bringing it back to him while Sam wants to use it for himself, que the two of engaging in a Duck Season, Rabbit Season routine which Sam ultimately wins.
    Sam: (acquiring time warp) This looks awesome! What's it do?
    Professor Kiesel: I believe the artifact was part of the science research into the properties of time, and may have a time dilation effect.
    Sam: So, could I use it?
    Professor Kiesel: In theory, but you must first return it for study.
    Sam: Or I could use it.
    Professor Kiesel: Or you could bring it back.
    Sam: Or I could use it.
    Professor Kiesel: Or you could bring it back.
    Sam: Or I could use it.
    Professor Kiesel: Or you could bring it back.
    Sam: Or I could bring it back.
    Professor Kiesel: Or you could use it.
    Sam: Well, thank you, Professor
    Professor Kiesel: (defeated) Scheiße, verdammt!
  • At the beginning of Chapter 3, Sam finds himself in front of a locked door. Cue the following conversation:
    Sam: Why do I keep running into locked doors?
    Jones: Bad luck?
    Rodriguez: You're always going the wrong way?
    Hellfire: Doors hate you?
    Kenny: Increased security in war zones?
    Sam: A-Am I the only one who knows you shouldn't answer a rhetorical question?
    Kenny: No, sir, I... oh.
    • Later on, when Sam finds the key to open the aforementioned door...
    Sam: Hey! Guess what I've found?
    Hellfire: More rhetorical questions?
  • Roughly three quarters through Chapter 3, Kenny manages to set-up one of the beacons, only for Rodriguez to butt-in.
    Kenny: I-I did it! Beacon set!
    Rodriguez: Yeah, cause' Sam gave you the easy ones.
    • Later on...
    Rodriguez: Beacon two set. Looks like I ain't buyin' the drinks tonight
    Sam: That's cause' I gave you the easy ones, dumbass.

Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem

  • Just after meeting One-Eyed Olga in Chapter 3, you can find a Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch on a grave nearby. Interacting with it summons a Kamikaze with a Holy Halo, two holy hand grenades instead of bombs in its hands and a higher-pitched scream running at you. Killing it causes a "Hallelujah" chant to occur before it blows up into a shower of health pills for you to pick up.
  • The secret hostile snowman in Chapter 3 is slightly humorous. You can find a snowman with Cool Shades halfway through the level, hidden among the trees near a broken church. Attacking it causes it to very calmly pull out two rocket launchers and try to kill you.
  • Later in Chapter 3 is a bridge you need to cross that has been blocked off with rayshields. You follow the cable to a barn nearby that has a small color puzzle in it. You could solve the puzzle as presented by making all buttons blue with the correct sequence of presses... or you can just shoot it with a rocket and break the power supply that way. Sam will make a comment based on what you do.
  • In one small outpost, you can find two Octanian soldiers looking at images of cats on a computer, which is a Shout-Out to one of Croteam's other games The Talos Principle. Looks like even genocidal aliens aren't immune to getting distracted by cute cat images.
  • One of the secrets you can find in Chapter 4 is a Mini-Boss fight against what the game calls a wooden "hut on chicken legs", i. e. a tougher version of a Major Bio-mechanoid.
  • When Sam and Ledov's squad have to cross a bridge in Chapter 5, Sam makes several Incredibly Lame Puns in regards to that bridge both before and after it's destroyed by a Saggitarian Sidewinder. Ledov and the others just ignore him, while Ivan... is a bit slow to get the joke. Cue a verbal Face Palm from Ledov.
