Even though I already own all these games for PC and 360, I'm a huge fan of these games and am very happy to see a physical release (I do have the PC physical releases but they never had any for 360 in North America).

I wonder if it will have separate achievements from the previous individual releases.  I'll buy it if so even though I own them all already.

Tempting, since my Xbox Prime disc for Serious Sam is unreadable now for some reason.

I had problems with my NIB copy of Xbox Serious Sam when I bought it years ago...there was a batch of defective discs that would barely load or be unreadable. I had to exchange my copy directly through 2K. More info: http://forums.seriouszone.com/archive/index.php/t-25486.html

I'm kind of pissed that they didn't just release this back when they released the XBLA version of SS3. I'll definitely get one but for $20 max since I already own all of the digital versions.

Bummer, probably nothing can be done about it now. :\

 
I already own all the Serious Sam games on XBLA along with the two games that came out for Xbox (note: Serious Sam 2 is not on XBLA). Undecided if I'll get the disc since I already own them all in some form, but if it hits low enough, I may grab a physical copy to sit along on my shelf.

That said, the release trailer is a bit misleading since it all seems to be segments of Serious Sam 3: BFE and none of the other three games included.
