Not complete, but still decent games.
As others have mentioned, this is not really 'complete', it's missing 2 PC games and 1 Gameboy game. All of the included games are great, though. 1-3 were the games that established ID's "smooth scrolling" tech for PC, and they originally pitched that tech to Nintendo believe it or not for a PC Mario game. 4-5 have improved graphics, a tweaked control scheme, and better music. Also, there's a pong minigame in the menus which is worth switching to if the game itself gets to be too much. Honestly I'm underselling it.. there were early memes from this game before the word 'meme' was a thing; google 'dopefish' as an example. Recommended if you like 2D platformers. It's a real shame they left out 'Aliens At My Babysitter' though; that was the swan song of ID's 2D days, and hinted at a sequel that never came..
