Won't install! [Posted on 2006-03-25]
I'm getting a vague error that's telling me to empty temp folder, check internet, close running programs (error: -6001). Tried everything, but still can't install. What a crappy packaging.

Good collection - had install problems [Posted on 2006-04-02]
This is a good collection of games. Like the previous poster I had the same error when trying to install. Luckily I found a fix:

Open My Computer > C: > Program Files > Common Files.
Drag the folder InstallShield to your desktop.
Try installing the application again.

Once this was done, the programs installed fine.
As for the games, my favorite is Everquest 2 but all of them offer something interesting for MMO players. No one really has the time to play all of these games, but this a good inexpensive way to try them all out.

Try, Try Again [Posted on 2007-05-07]
I bought the Station Access Collection to try several games and use the Station Access Pass. It was quite a deal in getting the basic setup for 5 established games for the price of one new game. I've tried several of the games on it so far, and play two on a regular basis. It gave me lots of choices to make, and to find the best game for me. I hope everyone has as much fun trying new games as I have had.

Pleasantly Surprised [Posted on 2007-12-18]
I got this set as a gift for a friend (and got myself one too so that we could try the games together). I wasn't expecting much, but WOW I was surprised. We tried EverQuest Evolutions first, and that was sub par, but then we jumped into EverQuest2 and the cost was justified within the first 5 minutes. We have yet to try the other games, but even if they aren't worth playing we found a part that made it a great purchase. My only complaint is that in order to use your free 30 days for each game you have to actually subscribe to play more. While you -can- cancel the subscription before any charges occur it is a rather large inconvenience, and it always makes me nervous to have to enter a credit card to receive something for free.
