The game is really fun, and they been making right with the problems with the servers, challenges, XP, Twitch Drops and more they been having at launch by granting 1500 BP credits to everyone and working tirelessly overtime to get these issues fixed for everyone. I hope those who were upset with the issues that it faced will give the game another chance and change their review.

On top of it not being fun, controller sensitivity is too much, placing traps down feels harder than the classic games, combat was way too hard for only 2 players, and maps are too opened with very few options to block pathways...

Multiplayer is still live and kicking, worth picking up during a sale if you just wanna revisit the multiplayer or to play it for the first time! Controller Support Mod exists too, if you wanna play it on controller.

How the heck you even get anywhere in this game when you can literary get killed by your first encounter, and the resting system heals so awfully slow, that you're bound to die eventually anyways! I haven't even ran into a player, just all the npcs do too much damage!

Don't get the game right now until they fix the issues. No matter what your specs are on PC many have encountered massive stuttering problems including myself, game has memory leaks the longer you play, and without performance mods this was literary impossible for me to play later on in the game. I'm able to find the game enjoyable only thanks to nexusmods making it playable for me, if you have a Playstation 5, get the game on there instead since it was better optimized there, to save yourself possible headaches. Great game but bad port so far. I'll change my review once they fix it.

I STRONGLY don't recommend this DLC. The negatives outweights the pros, with annoying effects like Entangement being much more common with the new enemies they give us, and Jungle Rot with no items giving you immunities against them, and only able to cure Entanglement through very few weapons, and panax's for Jungle Rot (Which won't appear in most towns btw) it gets really annoying quickly. You already have to deal with rng rolls, it's not fun having to run into these enemies that can make these happen to you on turn one basically...

There's no skilled based matchmaking, too many mindless bot fights, and the open world is very boring and tedious leading you with no gameplay for 20 minutes straight from just going from point A to point B. The player count is too low currently for most game modes, leading you to only to playing the Siege game mode most of the time, or the PVE game modes like Bandit Raids. The game is very unfair when you're fighting players who has all the units they want by now, and basically 1 shotting you because they have much better gear than you.

5 years later and it shows that 2K don't really don't care about whenever this was ported to steam good or not. I haven't completed Bioshock before, and I last played it ages ago until recently when I picked the game back up, so I can't tell you that the gameplay is still mostly the same or not, but what I can tell you that it is enjoyable apart from the super repetitive mini game they spam at you for hacking machines, bots, turrets, etc. HOWEVER, this game is inescapable from constant crashes that makes this not worth buying at all, and honestly you're better off just buying the original game. I would had completed this game already at this point of the review, but instead I have to backtrack many times for the times I forget to save, and even if I do remember that I need to save after like 30 minutes of playtime, it doesn't even matter cause the game likes to crash everytime you attempt to save. This resulted me rushing sections that I technically already throughly explored, but lost progress on because no one wants to immediately repeat a hour long section that they JUST progressed through. Also from what I'm seeing on the Remastered of Bioshock 2, it ALSO has the same issues, so I won't be expecting myself playing that one either, and will be playing the original Bioshock 2 instead.

- Affordable game for what it has to offer
- Being able to play all the Classic Main Series Halo Games
- Includes Campaign, Multiplayer, Firefight, and Forge for all the games that had it. (ODST Firefight on the way)
- Halo 2 Anniversary is an overall improvement to the classic Halo 2 in my opinion, with their fantastic cutscenes made by Blur Studios, Improved music changes (For most part) great maps/remakes added to the Mutiplayer maps, and unique neat changes to Ball score to objective modes where YOU CAN TOSS THE BALL TO SCORE NOW!
- Adding new features after all these years, like new Halo 1 cosmetics (skins/visors), new nameplates to MCC, and soon new features for ODST and Halo 3! They also improved Forge Mode for Halo 3 and Reach by adding new assets, and making Halo 3 Forge a little less clunky by adding changing physics options, and coordinates positioning like Reach Forge had!

- There's no ability for map voting. Some maps are great and fun, but they're some that feel outdated, spawn Positioning could be better, or not the ideal weapon spawn choices, like adding 2 snipers on a small map like Foundry can be a bit too much.

- With no map voting also comes with not enough Game Category filtering. They will group things up like Capture the Flag, and Oddball together, or King of the Hill, with Juggernant, which can make the more like objective like game modes harder to queue up for if you're itching to do some Team Capture the Flag.

- No crossplay, and switching between PC and Xbox can be buggy for certain things. I know they're promising crossplay at a later time, but until it does it will be one of my concerns since my brother plays exclusively on Xbox, which makes me playing with him a little harder, and I know if they added the crossplay feature it will get even more people to start playing the game and being able to play with more of your friends. As for the bugs, I've noticed when I returned to Xbox to play with my brother my control settings from PC wasn't transfer over and made my defaults on Xbox control settings very whack to the point of like 1 sensitivity, auto centering look, inverse camera controls, inverse buttons, etc. Also Playlist completions on Xbox won't show up for you on PC, and challenges on Xbox won't be completed after you complete them sometimes.

Overall my likes for the game collection are positive over the minor problems/missing features I think it could have, and it's been fun finally going through the games to play solo Legendary finally cause I was trash to do so when I was a kid. Also helps I can find people who has the game to play with for Campaign and Multiplayer =)

I played through Orcs Must Die on Xbox 360 originally way back then, and I loved it! I bought the Orcs Must Die Bundle recently for nostalgia and to play more with Orcs Must Die 2 on PC. I however encounter problems though, frequent crashes through startup, loading screens, and menu transitions, and not only that, it was a pain in the ass to end the application since it's defaulted to Full Screen, and even when I click on windows tab, and try the "Alt, Ctrl, and Delete" trick to open up task manager to end the application that way, it was never letting me actually click on it, without it transitioning back to the game itself. Now I don't have some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ laptop or anything like that, I'm having this problem on a 1.5k+ PC! I saw some solutions people stated in the past, like try troubleshooting it into Windows 7, I tried that and I tried Windows 8, both still doesn't work for me. I'm highly disapointed by this, even though I manage to play up to 5+ hours of Orcs Must Die 2, and was enjoying the gameplay, however constantly having to restart my computer just to only work half of the time, or restart it before doing the next chapter half of the time was just too much, so I refuse to play it anymore.
