All it takes is the swipe of a finger. We connect with friends. We buy the latest gadgets and gear. We find out what's happening in the world. But with that same simple swipe, we cast an increasingly expansive shadow. With each connection, we leave a digital trail that tracks our every move and milestone, our every like and dislike. And it's not just people. Today, all major cities are networked. Urban infrastructures are monitored and controlled by complex operating systems.In Watch Dogs, this system is called the Central Operating System (CTOS) ~ and it controls almost every piece of the city's technology and holds key information on all of the city's residents. You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you'll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city's network. Access omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate a target, control traffic lights and public transportation to stop the enemy... and more.

With the 2K Essentials Collection, you can battle enemies, rescue citizens and develop your skills in three unique and terrifying environments. First, uncover the secrets of the city of Rapture, a failed utopia whose founders experimented with genetic engineering before the city was overrun with anarchy. BioShock plummets you into Rapture, where corpses litter the city. Wildly powerful guardians roam the corridors as evil little girls loot the dead, and genetically mutated citizens attempt to ambush you at every turn. Then journey to the harsh frontier planet Pandora where you are greeted by an array of native creatures bent on stopping your mission. Borderlands sets you off in search of a mysterious alien vault. You are destined to comb the vast environment, fighting your way through bandits and discovering aggressive creatures. Survive the alien environment and finish what you started, or succumb to the unfamiliar wasteland. Finally, hurl yourself into a massive global battle against mysterious and violent aliens. Earth's governments unite to form an elite paramilitary organization, XCOM, to combat this extraterrestrial attack. The highly acclaimed XCOM: Enemy Unknown is an action-strategy game about civilization's last stand.The 2K Essentials Collection puts power in your hands: In BioShock you explore the incredibly authentic water effects and environments, customize your weapons with ionic gels, explosives and toxins, and brace your body with genetic modifications to mutate yourself into the ultimate fighting machine. Then step into the shoes of one of four distinct characters in Borderlands, where you battle enemies in frantic first-person shooter combat. In the unforgiving environment of Pandora, search the planet for loot and wield a virtually endless variety of weapons and continue to customize your character. Join and leave other players' games at will, play in split-screen format or choose to face Pandora alone. Fight through bandits, discover nine native creatures and aid the few settlers on the planet as you seek the rumored treasure in the alien vault. Finally, as the commander of XCOM, you control the global defense team in a battle against alien invasion by creating a fully operational base, researching alien technologies and planning combat missions. The fate of the world rests in your hands. Can you handle the pressure-packed challenges and cruel environments of all three games? Innocent lives depend on you escaping the worlds victorious ~ it is Essential you don't let them down.
