Ehhhhhhhhh, its alright
By S. Meyer
Couple of key points about the game.1. Yes, lighting makes all the difference in the world. This is also printed right on the cover of the instruction manual. In a room of full natural daylight the images looked nearly as good as in the previews. The only problem the game had was with my son's curly hair. At night, with regular room lighting, the picture was pretty rough.2. The movie selection is very limited. Sure, 80 scenes but not a whole lot there I was interested in doing. Now that is personal preference so I'm not docking the score because of it, but the selection seems pretty weak. I get that the 360 is not on blu ray and there are space issues, blah blah blah.3. You can download extra scenes but they are pretty expensive. I think the latest "pack" on Live right now is 5 scenes for $7.4. A little bit of bait and switch in the movies. Two scenes I can think of for example. The preview for the "This is Sparta" scene ends with you kicking the guy into the pit. This is not in the quick play version of the game (I don't know if it's in challenge, I would assume not). The scene ends with you screaming .... no cut away to him falling. In Kick ass, the mirror scene. It's just you standing in a room and saying the dialogue. There is no cut away to the mirror. Yes, I realize that your back in the mirror would not match the reflection but the preview shows you in the mirror, and there is no mirror in the scene.5. None of the movies are full screen. They are all in a youtube-like box in the middle of your screen, which is ok. However, when you save your performance and play it back, it's in an even smaller screen. In that instance, it's actually too small.6. The camera does not adjust for height. My kids wanted to try out a few scenes and at no point does the Kinect sensor adjust to the player aside from the initial start up. Therefore when you have a big height difference between players (6 feet vs 4 feet), you need the smaller person to stand on something. The game does say "line up your body with the image on the screen" before you do a scene but in some cases, a smaller player just can't because the sensor won't adjust and won't see you if you are too close.7. The game froze 3 times in about 25 minutes on me. Never actually had a game freeze on me before on the Xbox.8. Saving takes a long time. Usually about 60 seconds to save your file to your xbox hard drive. Not sure why.I think this game is a SOLID rental especially if you are having people over for some drinks. I can't see this being very fun for a solo player but that's not the point of the game. The bottom line is that the product works as advertised (you can put yourself in the movies and it looks pretty good) but there are a lot of minor annoyances that bog down the gameplay.

Mixed Feelings
By D. MARTIN
First let em start off, by saying I had been waiting for this to be released from the day I heard about, as my family and I enjoy these type of family oriented games (ie: Singstar, Lips, Scene It).Overall the game isn't all that bad, it just is a slight disappointment, when you sit down and compare it to the pre-release videos that have been shown, the clarity doesn't match up to video previews, I had seen, there not horrible, but like another review stated, choppy, with a glow around your character... Another feature I am not happy with is the fact that you must have your kinect set to Chat On.. Well, I am online nightly playing MW2, and know have to remember to shut down the chat option before going online, so the whole world doesn't hear my entires house drama... The third, would be the outline of your character alot of time has you facing away from the tv, during the scene, making it impossible to read the lines, so you better have a good memory...The Good points are: definately a great party game, with a bunch of people around, would be great to listen how people can improvise a scene to their own. Also another feature which seems to be the biggest hit at my house so far, would be the scenes that have no dialogue, you simply adlib the scene yourself, such as the King Kong & I am Legend scene, those seem to be the most enjoyable.Overall, the game is probably not worth the $50 it currently was released at, but @ say $30, would be a decent investment...

Very misleading advertising
By NitemareTrainer
When I first heard about Yoostar2, I was really excited. After viewing the promotional video clips, I was even more excited. When you watch the promo clips you are given the impression that when you buy and play the game that the video clips you produce are going to look like the promo clips. WRONG. Your videos are not even close to the promo clips. The video images are pixelated and poor quality and the audio is not that great. In my opinion, the makers of the game recorded the promo clips in a studio with a hi def camera and studio quality lighting. They definitely did not use an xbox/kinect to make the promo clips. The manufacturer of the game should have put a disclaimer on the promo clips telling prospective purchasers that a xbox/kinect was not used to make the scenes.Some people have indicated that there is something in the game manual about lighting. The problem is that you need to buy the game and open it to see the manual and then it is too late to return the game for a credit or refund. The game is a fun game to play if you don't care about the quality of the clips that you produce. However, I would not want to share poor quality clips on Facebook or Twitter for my friends to see. If you want to verify what I am telling you, go to youtube and view the promo clips and then watch the clips made by people using an xbox/kinect and you will have to agree with me.Yoostar, you guys should really be ashamed at misleading the public.

XBOX 360 GHOST CASE - CRYSTAL CLEAR/HDMI/BLUE LIGHTS

Product Description

BRAND NEW Xbox360 Clear Ghost Case with Dual Custom Light Kit!!

White plastic got you bummed out? Swap that eyesore Xbox 360 white case
for one of our Clear Ghost Cases. This is the most complete 360 case on
the market, with high quality plastic that gives the appearance of glass
(nobody wants murky clouded plastic cases)!

This is the only case in the world that comes with a clear DVD drive
lid, which actually lets you the DVD spinning while you play! Inside
this amazing kit is also a clear fan tunnel, without this vital piece
you wouldn't even be able to see your circuit board! This piece opens up
the whole inside of your console so you can see everything going on
inside (this also allows for your custom lighting kit to light up
everything in the case)! Note: The silver side grilles (mesh type
pieces) are not replaced. This is so the hard drive will match the
color of these pieces, and because behind these pieces are a big ugly
metal parts that are better when not visible!

This Ultra Kit includes:

* Xbox 360 Case Replacement
* Includes Custom Dual Light Kit
* Clear DVD drive lid
* Clear dual Fan Tunnel
* Comes with all 3 Opening Tools (everything you need!)
* Extremely High Quality!

This new case is designed to be compatible with the new HDMI generation of consoles as well as the original case style. The custom light kit has backwards compatible plugs to fit both the new and old style consoles.

Comes with 2 DVD tray parts one for the Samsung / Hitachi and one for the benQ DVD drive.

Please refer to the following diagram to see if your XBox 360 DVD drive is compatible. If your drive tray does not look like one of these, the GhostCase disc drive lid may not fit.

Great Mod, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
By Larry A. Vargas-ruiz
Received the case from the manufacturer and it had all the parts necessary for completing the mod....except the instructions. I highly recommend you do a google search for instructions before attempting. Also be advised the disk spinner thing will require that you "break" the lid of your current disk drive to get the magnet spinner out. Also once you have everything taken apart and install the disk drive make sure that it is working before putting the lid on. If you dont you might have positioned the magnet improperly and will get a scraping noise which will break your disk (use an old cd or blank cd before using your games. Furthermore, if you had put on the lids and then have to take it apart its a pain. I also had to sand the disk bay opening on the front plate to allow the disk to open (not a big deal). It took me about half an hour to complete with the sanding and testing. A word to the wise: If you are a parent buying this for your kid help them do the mod or you may end up with a 200 dollar paperweight. Dont let this review get you down the mod is beautiful and your xbox will look great.

Good Product With a Few Problems
By Schuyler Copeland
The Ghost Case is an awesome mod product that definitely give your 360 a unique look. It goes perfectly with my other mods (a lighted fan and wind tunnel). It does however have a few problems. First of all, the case does not precisely fit the console like the OEM case does. You really have to struggle both to get this thing on and off so I would definitely NOT recommend this to someone who has never taken apart their 360 before! Especially since it comes with no directions. I do not know the situation for the clear dvd lid for the other drives, but I have the Benq dvd drive and there are some problems. You have to almost permanently mangle your original dvd drive to take parts in order for the clear lid to work. After that is done you really need to take time to find the exact right placing for the lid, otherwise it will mess up discs and and not play correctly. Even after doing this I cannot play my 360 in the vertical position because the clear lid does not correctly hold the disc in place vertically. When horizontal I can occasionally hear a high pitched whirring telling me that the disc is scratching against the clear lid. Perhaps I need to open it up and correct the lid's positioning again. Another small problem is that the front faceplate does not position itself correctly over the power button so you have to push very hard to get the power button to work. This will get annoying if you use the power button frequently. There is also no button on the faceplate for the wireless sync button. Its just a hole, so you will need a screwdriver or something similar to reach in and push this button.PROS:-gives 360's a unique look-made with thick high quality plastic-nice and clear, gives you a great look at the inside of your console-LED lights are simple to install-comes with clear dvd lid so you can see the disc spin while you playCONS:-no instructions-difficult to take case on and off due to its odd fit-clear faceplate makes using power and wireless sync buttons annoyingly hard-clear dvd lid for Benq drive requires you to mangle your dvd drive, its difficult to position, and makes playing the console vertically (with a spinning disc inside) near impossible without destroying the discOVERALL:I would give this product 3.5 stars if I could. When all is said and done its a pretty awesome product and I love it. The difficulty of putting the case and dvd lid on was well worth it, but because of this I would only recommend it to those experienced in taking apart their 360.

Ghost Case for Xbox 360 review AMAZINGLY GREAT / MIND BLOWING
By A. Shah
This is single handedly the greatest accessory for the Xbox360 you can buy. It completely changes the way your console affects the ambience of your game room. In the dark this awesome kit glows a blue so fine it makes the whole room change. It is not easy for an amateur to put this together, the 360 case was designed to make it difficult to open, but once everything is running perfectly its like a symphony, Microsoft would sell 10 times as many units if it would make these types of modifications available from the factory, simply AWESOME!!!

Well worth it
By Yu-jin Chia
When I first went to Mournhold, site of the Tribunal expansion, I was a bit disappointed. After all, it appears to just be a single city, roughly the size of Balmora and arguably less interesting! Suffice to say that this is NOT all there is to it. A bit of patience and a few quests will go a long way to fulfilling your every desire in regards to exploration, enemies, and rewards.

The expansion largely takes place in the city of Mournhold, but if you are journeying in normal Morrowind you will also see Dark Brotherhood assassins that will trigger the expansion plot. A bit of a warning- they do come quite early and can get pretty tough, so be careful where you rest. The expansion is definitely geared for higher level characters. There is a mercenary you can hire to tag along and help, but you'll need to be upwards of level 30 if you expect to play straight through the new areas. Of course, you don't have to do it all at once, and you can return to Morrowind at any time.

The lack of new items in the early part of the expansion can be disappointing. All I can say is to be patient, because there's certainly some VERY nice ones to be had. Mournhold also has some useful things for sale, such as adamantium weapons, glass armor, and a smith that will make glass, adamantium, or ebony armor if you bring him raw materials. There is also a museum where you can sell artifacts for up to 30k gold (if you aren't patient enough to use Creeper or Drunken Mudcrab) and a mage that sells unlimited quantities of grand, greater, and common soul gems.

The expansion includes at least 7 completely new creatures, as well as some very tough unique opponents. There are a lot of extremely cool new areas and puzzles, and dungeons that make the biggest ones in Morrowind look drab and puny. If you've liked the main game, then this expansion is a sure-fire buy. It adds a great deal of extra play, and is definitely worth your money.

a nice surprise
By G. Sekinger
I wasn't terribly impressed with Morrowind when it first came out. I think I was a victim of all the hype and expected the world from the game. Months have passed and on a whim I bought this expansion pack. Going back to Morrowind has been a gas. They've fixed the issues with the journal and I find myself really enjoying the game.

The expansion pack fixes issues and adds enough content to make this a really compelling game. I'm back in Morrowind and recommend this to anyone.

If you bought the game when it came out but found it under whelming, it's time to go back and give it a second try.

Niceley designed add-on without a doubt
By Westley Merlin
I am going to make this review short. Tribunal is an excellent addition to morrowind. And better yet, even like Unreal Gold, it's built into morrowind. Which is just plain awesome. New locations, items, allies, enemies, and just plain ordinary characters interestingly and beatifully designed and fun to interact with have been deisgned in tribunal. Although the expansion pack is a bit small, (which why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars), it is a great addition to morrowind, and I cannot wait till the bloodmoon expansion pack comes out.(I also got decent frame rates in areas of tribunal), I reocmmend it!

Should You Buy It??? - Helpful Tips on How to Choose
By H. Wang
I'll be honest with you guys, I really agonized over buying this bundle. I already had an old Xbox 360 elite and another backup unit to boot - so really I didn't NEED it. But when it comes to being an Xbox & Star Wars fan - it's not about reason, it's about WANT!!! So what did I do? I bought it, albeit I had tremendous buyers remorse the second I got it until I finally hooked it up (and transferred the data from my old HD to the new one). From the moment I powered up the system - I was 100% glad I got it.Here's why I'm glad I got it.1) The unit looks awesome, and it is a Star Wars fan's dream come true. The R2D2 exterior is well crafted and looks/feels very nice.2) I love how the Xbox makes those beeping/booping/squealing R2 sounds when you open/close the tray and power on/off the system. The only drawback is you have to physically press the buttons, you won't get the sounds if you use a remote or the controller.3) The gold C3P0 controller is GREAT! It has a nice finish, great feel, the D-pad is nice and it just really makes you feel special for buying the bundle.4) The white kinect is nice, and it is the only one of its kind (so far), with everything else being black. It's a minor thing, but it does make you feel better about paying for the bundle. As for performance, mine was fine out of the box though as with all Kinects you do get the occasional and annoying "player input lost" messages that kind of interrupt the action.Now should you buy it?Well here's who I think should get it.1) Die hard Star Wars fans who need a new Xbox or just have money to burn2) Someone (like me) who had an old Elite clunker and want to upgrade to the new 360 design before the 720 (allegedly) comes out at the end of 2013. At least if you buy this now you'll still get at least a year and a half with it, assuming R2's circuits don't get fried by the Jawas.3) Someone who doesn't have a Kinect and needs an excuse to get one by buying a cool, limited edition bundle4) Someone who needs a 320 GB hard drive and wants a cool Star Wars motif to bootSo who should NOT buy this?1) Don't buy it if you're tight on cash, and especially if you already have an Xbox - that would be just foolish, and you'll just end up being bantha fodder down the road if you're in debt. This bundle is cool, but it's not "I'm willing to go broke for it" cool.2) Don't buy it because you think it's a cool way to play Star Wars Kinect. It's not. (I'll explain more later)3) Don't buy it if you think this performance is superior to any other 360. It's not.**Important Note**4) Don't buy this if you only have a 5.0 GHZ N connection in your home - not unless you have a spare Microsoft Xbox 360 wireless adapter hanging around. The reason?The Xbox included in this bundle only works on a 2.4 GHZ connection. For people like me who have a dual band router, I assigned the 2.4 GHZ to my G connection (for my G-only devices) and the 5 GHZ to my N connection (to take advantage of the high speed for my other useful gadgets like the new iPad, etc).FORTUNATELY for me, I was able to unplug my old wireless adapter on my old Xbox and plug it into my new Xbox thru the USB port (thankfully there are 3 ports on this new Xbox too), and voila I was able to pick up my wireless 5.0 N connection again (it wasn't able to do it beforehand). So just keep this in mind, if your wireless connection is only 5.0 GHZ N band at home, you'll need to have the extra adapter around to take full advantage of the higher speed.I don't think this should affect a lot of people, but just keep this in mind when you are upgrading or buying it for the first time.As for the extras ... well1) It looks like Star Wars, but on your Xbox - yay!2) You get 2 games!3) You get a poster of R2 & C3P0 (eeh)4) Kinect Adventures is fun, and a nice demo of what the Kinect can do, but other games do it better.As for Star Wars Kinect (which is also included)- This game is fun, initially- You feel kind of cool when you are training and realizing you can whip out a lightsaber and kill stuff ... until you realize ... a lot of the duels are done in a rock/paper/scissors way. Meaning, when you "duel" you get in a screen where you have to time your blocks, then you get a narrow window of time to attack your opponent. That is REALLY lame.- It's fun to use force powers with your other hand, while you slash with one hand, but after awhile all the slashing gets a bit repetitive and a lot of times I just ended up using my force powers for most enemies by flinging them around. It saves me the trouble of slashing the 1000th stupid droid with my tired arms.- The driving/flying missions/controls are okay, but it's nothing we haven't seen before.- The dance mini game is okay, but the rancor rampage thing is fun. It's basically the old Midway RAMPAGE game, but with a kinect.- The duel mode stinks, for the reason I listed above.- BUT you DO get an extra C3P0 thing for the dance mini game!So is it worth buying the bundle just for this game? Hell no! But I'm sure most people are buying it because of the eye candy, and for that I gotta say it is really worth it. The unit looks special, I love the beeping R2 sounds and most importantly, it's a great upgrade for people who love Star Wars and Xbox at the same time. You just feel happy looking at it when it's in your living room or den or man cave.Just keep in mind the Star Wars game itself isn't that great.

Pretty well done
By RageOC
Never had interest in buying an xbox 360 before (I have multiple PS3s and a gaming PC), but when I saw the video of this thing coming out, combined with my son's interest in Kinect, I knew I would purchase it. The system itself has a really cool look to it and the controller is great as well. Not entirely thrilled with a white Kinect, but that's a matter of taste and no reflection on the device itself. We've played the game a little and thus far it's been fun. Using voice commands for Netflix and downloading games has been very easy. I'd say this is a purchase for someone who doesn't own an xbox 360 or doesn't have a slim model or of course the die hard fan.A couple things to take note of, the R2 noises only happen when you use the physical eject or power button on the machine itself. Using the controller or voice command on the kinect does not trigger the R2 noises. Not a big deal to me, but wanted to pass that on. The controller comes with AA batteries, so a recharge kit would also be a good purchase to combine with this if you don't have one already.

Should be more "Star Wars" in the Star Wars Xbox
By Steve Biroschik
The Xbox, Controller, and Kinect all work great, but I wanted to mention a couple of nits for potential buyers who might be on the fence for making a purchase:- There is only one C3PO controller included. This is clearly noted, but seems a bit chincy when the Halo Xbox included two silver Halo Reach controllers. The controller does look great though.- The Xbox only makes R2D2 noises when you push the buttons on the Xbox. The controller and Kinnect voice command makes the normal Xbox noises.- Speaking of R2D2, the paint job on the fron of the Xbox feels backwards to me. If you stand the Xbox up on end, the blue lght and R2D2 dome are below the disc drive and not near the top like they would be on a "real" R2.- I never stood my other Xbox up on end, so maybe this is normal, but the drive sounds really loud when it is accessed with the Xbox standing up on end.- I would have thought Microsoft could have included some more Star Wars items with the "Star Wars" Xbox. A custom Star Wars theme or the C3PO/R2D2 avatar items would have been nice extras.

22 GB of HD space needed to install
By True Story
If you are like me and mad late catching up with series, download the Bioshock demo off of PSN first to see if this your cup of tea. I usually avoid first person shooters like the plague. I have no interest in Call Of Duty, Battlefield or any other war crap. Yet, I was very impressed by what I played in the Bioshock demo. I was very close to purchasing Bioshock until I saw this great package was about to be released.Take heed to the 'Mature' rating before purchasing this for little Billy or Suzie. These games may be extremely graphic, violent, bloody, and bizarre for those who do not have an open mind or the patience to understand what is going on. The rest of you will love it! A mix of survival horror, rpg elements and a fast paced shooter all blended together to make a classic series.A perfect deal for only $30 plus tax. 1 disc, and 3 Bioshock Infinite promo stickers are included. Best to have disc auto start turned off before inserting these combo pack discs to avoid a game from automatically loading up like Assassin's Creed Revelations does with the Ezio Trilogy disc. You can disable disc auto start by navigating to Settings > [System Settings] in the XMB menu.With disc auto start turned off, when you first insert the disc, 2 icons will appear. 1 icon to install Bioshock 1. A 2nd icon to install Bioshock 2 plus all DLC's for both Bioshock 1 and 2 which you can install separately from the disc anytime you choose. In other words, if you only want to install Bioshock 2 and then decide to install Minerva's Den, you can do so at anytime you choose.Install times are nowhere near as long as the Ezio Trilogy pack. In fact, when you install Bioshock, you are treated to a musical loading screen playing 1950's music with interesting in game ads while the games install.Graphics still look great and stand the test of time. The voice acting is very convincing and sets the tone for an eerie, creepy world to explore filled with various sinister, psychotic characters all with their own evil, twisted agenda. A lot of time and thought went into creating the story and the very believable city of Rapture. If you are not a first person shooter fan, give this a shot.Here are a list of DLC's included:Bioshock: DLC's - Plasmids Pack, Challenge Rooms Pack, Bonus Museum LevelBioshock 2: DLC's - Minerva's Den, Sinclair Solutions Tester, Rapture Metro, Kill Em Kindly, The Protector TrialsSUBTITLES FOR BIOSHOCK 1:Minor spoiler for Bioshock 1. To access the subtitles, start a game of Bioshock. After the opening plane crash scene, you will assume control of Jack who surfaces from underwater. Pause the game, select 'options' and you will see an option to turn on subtitles.HOW TO FIX 'CONTINUE' / LOAD GAME ERRORS:There was a common issue with Bioshock 1 and 2 where loading up a saved game by selecting 'Contnue' or 'Load Game' would result in a freeze error where your saves never load up. Unfortunately this issue still carries over to the Ultimate Rapture Edition. This happened to me recently and luckily there is an easy fix for this.On your PS3 in the XMB menu, simply navigate to your 'Game Data' folder under the Games menu and delete all Bioshock files.DO NOT DELETE ANY SAVED GAME DATA WHICH IS LOCATED IN A DIFFERENT FOLDER, SAVED GAME DATA FOLDER.Once you delete all Bioshock game data files, simply reinstall Bioshock and your saves should load just fine.

Detailed DLC Review
By big kid
Welcome to the Circus of Values! The first two BioShock games are two of the best games this console generation has seen and now we have the opportunity to get both of them, complete with all their downloadable content, here in one package.There really isn't anything new I can say about these two games that hasn't already been said when the games were originally released. Both are amazing story-driven FPSs that showcase some of the best imagination and creativity in video games. The graphics were great for their time and still hold up well today but will show their age when compared to some of the more recent game releases. Since so many reviews have already been released about the original games I am going to instead focus on the extra content that is included. If you are on the fence about the games themselves, I would encourage you to view the reviews on the original product pages to get a better understanding of the games.!WARNING! - These games have great stories and it would be a shame to have them spoiled for those of you new to the series. A few inconsiderate reviewers will contain details that will spoil the story for you, so proceed with caution!BioshockBioshock 2Now on to the added content!The DLC is included on the disc which means no codes to enter and nothing to download. The case says 22 GB are required to install all the content but its not one huge install; you can pick and choose which pieces of DLC to install and each has to be installed separately.The first BioShock comes with the Plasmids Pack, the Challenge Rooms Pack, and the Bonus Museum Level. All content is single-player; there was no multiplayer in the first game. While all the DLC from the second game is installed separately, the DLC for the first is installed in one package. This isn't that big of a deal since most of the DLC included is for the second game anyhow.The Plasmids Pack isn't really worth mentioning; this was a free update that anyone with an internet hookup had access to. This patch/DLC brought in a handful of new Plasmid powers and added new trophies/achievements. While this update was free of charge, its convenient to have it on disk and not have to download it.The Challenge Rooms pack were three independent levels that were separate from the game's story and originally only available on the PS3 and now 360 owners get to enjoy them for the first time. The name says it all; they are rooms with a challenge. Sometimes puzzle-driven, sometimes combat. They aren't really a necessity to fully enjoy BioShock; they're a nice bonus but easily done without. The Challenge Rooms originally released for $9.99 and come with their own set of trophies. Unclear at this time if the trophies were translated to achievements for this edition but I would assume so.The Bonus Museum Level is a great addition for the big BioShock fans out there. Unfortunately, there's not much to it. It consists of one medium-sized room with several "exhibits" and concept art lining the walls. Here we get to see the different ideas that were played around with and ultimately scrapped before the game was finalized. Walking up to each piece provides a small description in paragraph form. Its nice to see actual detailed 3D models of these ideas, but without any movement or sound they're simply lifeless statues that you will quickly get bored with. Even the biggest BioShock fans will spend a limited amount of time in here; I consider myself one of these fans and I was out after 20 minutes. Very interesting and a nice bonus, but I doubt I'll go back anytime soon.The added content for BioShock 2 are the Sinclair Solutions Tester pack, Rapture Metro map pack, Kill'em Kindly mode, The Protector Trials, Minerva's Den, and a Character Pack (apparently not mentioned on the case). Assuming that you're interested in the multiplayer aspect of the game at least somewhat, there's a lot of value here. Being that the game is nearing its 4-year anniversary, its understandable that the multiplayer has fallen off quite a bit from where it was. Many of the modes are simply impossible to find games for without setting them up yourself with invites to friends and the "players met" list. Most of the action takes place in the Civil War mode, which is simply Team Deathmatch. Getting into a Civil War match is fairly easy, but there are times when it will take a few minutes to find one. Also, without dedicated servers you're left at the mercy of the host. That means if they have a horrible connection you might see some lag and if they leave the game you're forced to return to the lobby to restart the match. I don't see lag too much, but be prepared for a host leaving every so often. Still a lot of fun and there's always hope that new players will emerge with the release of the Ultimate Rapture edition. Time will tell, but for now be warned; while playable, the multiplayer is far from thriving.!NOTE! - IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PLATINUMING THIS GAME, PLAYING MULTIPLAYER TO LEVEL 40 IS REQUIRED. This isn't impossible but will require about 15-30 hours depending on your skill level. I'm a fairly decent player and it took me around 22 hours.The Sinclair Solutions Tester pack added a level cap increase to the multiplayer from level 40 to 50. Two new playable characters and 5 masks were added along with a third upgrade option to all weapons. The pack released for $4.99.The Rapture Metro map pack features six new maps that you will likely never play. Seriously... if one person enters the lobby without this map pack then these maps are excluded from the rotation. Finding a lobby full of people with this map pack is next to impossible. The best way to ensure you see these maps (other than setting up a private match by yourself and roaming around) is to set up sessions on gaming forums. There are trophies tied to this pack, but as with all DLC trophies, they aren't required for the Platinum. This pack also included the option to "rebirth" at level 50, allowing you to start over at level 1 (like prestige in COD). The map pack released for $9.99 and had three new trophies/achievements.The Kill'em Kindly mode is simply a melee only game mode for multiplayer. This was offered free of charge to anyone with an internet connection so again, this was mentioned only because its now included on disc without the hassle of downloading. Remember when I said most of the action took place in Civil War? Guess which game mode you won't be playing much of...The Character Pack is the last multiplayer content and it wasn't mentioned on the case. It includes two playable characters that were originally only available for those that pre-ordered the game. The pack eventually released for $1.99. (And just to be clear, when I say "playable characters" I mean skins. There is no difference in stats or weapons available from one character to the next and choosing one from another is purely for cosmetics, though they each have their own set of one-liners that they spout off during the match.)The Protector Trials is a single-player horde mode that contains somewhat of a side story. In each level you must protect the harvesting little sister from a wave of splicers. You are graded on your performance on each level and, much like the Challenge Rooms from the first game, your arsenal is pre-selected making you strategize accordingly. It released for $4.99 and had seven new trophies/achievements.Minerva's Den is more of a traditional single-player side-story offering that is probably the best content included in this package. I don't want to go into too much detail for the sake of spoilers. It will probably take you anywhere from 2-6 hours depending on how your playstyle is. It released for $9.99 and had eight new trophies/achievements.CONCLUSIONNow, after all that you can see that this Ultimate Rapture edition is a great value but more for new players that have never experienced the BioShock series or for huge BioShock fans. If you've played the games before but don't consider yourself a big fan then its safe to pass. For those of you getting pumped over the new BioShock: Infinite that's releasing soon, an exclusive pack of 3 collectible stickers are included. As mentioned by other reviewers a HUGE chunk of hard drive space (22GB) is required to install all of the content, HOWEVER... you are not required to install everything all at once. Meaning that if you are limited on hard drive space you can always install one game and play it, then delete it before installing the second one. This will cut that 22GB size down substantially(When checking my folders it seems BioShock measures in at just over 6GB including the DLC. BioShock 2 is 9.3GB for the game and just over 4GB for all of the DLC. Even if you include save data we don't reach the 22GB listed on the case, but its close enough).Also, if you like the BioShock games and enjoy reading, be sure to check out John Shirley's prequel to the series. A great read if you're a fan!

22GB install is no joke.
By Michael
First off, these games are amazing, and with all the DLC included (on disc, no codes included), this bundle is a steal.Now, both games and the DLC are all on one disc ( a dual layered Blu-ray disc to be precise). Once you insert the disc, two icons will appear, one for "Bioshock" and one for "Bioshock and Bioshock 2 Additional Content". When you start Bioshock 1, the only thing you have to install is game data, which is about 5GB. When you choose the "Bioshock and Bioshock 2 Additional Content" icon, Bioshock 2 and all the DLC for both games will be listed. Unlike Bioshock 1, Bioshock 2 (the entire game) has to be completely installed, which amounts to 9.4 GB of space. The DLC has to be installed as well, which is about 5.6GB all together.Adding all three totals together, it's really 20GB instead of 22GB, but it's still a lot.Despite all that, this is a great bundle, and at $30, it's one that should not be missed
