I think that was one of the things the Serious Sam engine was trying to show 
off. There were levels where you'd look across the level with the 10x sniper 
scope and at the halfway mark was a five-story monstrosity you could barely 
make out.   That and literally hundreds of monsters all attacking at once, 
of course.
