Also i think the sarissa was usually a fair bit longer that the pike, not completely sure though.

It wasn't that much different in length, but in real life the Swiss would be supported by better missile armed troops than the Makedonians, and were arguably the best pike in the world at the time. Plus their first rank of halberdiers and Zweihander wielders would most likely tear the phalanx apart.
