Serious Sam: The First Encounter (classic) now on GOG
14
What you may not know about Sam, resident evil-alien-thing-killer and titular hero of the Serious Sam series, is that he's a serious guy. No, we don't mean he can't take a joke -- he's serious about savings, whether it be a coupon on a can of Campbell's Chunky or the fate of the whole world, he's all about the savings. And now GOG is saving you from a meaningless existence by offering the original Serious Sam: The First Encounter for $10.
That Hamilton will not only net you the original shooter, but also the game's soundtrack, though we can't imagine why anyone would want that. We panic enough when we hear this in the game -- we don't need to start looking over our shoulder at every crosswalk for fear of kamikaze, combustible dudes running us down, you know?

Why would anybody want to buy the original Serious Sam when you can get the HD remake for 5 dollars more? As awesome as GOG is, this just seems kind of pointless.

I'm guessing people without the hardware to play the HD
releases will jump in on this.
Hopefully, SS 2 will join shortly enough.

Well at least it comes with something. I can still find The Second Encounter in stores for 99 cents.

I love Serious Sam.
I wish the XBLA version of the Second Encounter would hurry up and come out. I have the original on my laptop, but I want it in full HD goodness and with achievements!
If Dead Rising, SSHD:TSE and Fallout New Vegas all happened to come out on the same day, SSHD would be the first one I'd buy.
