A lot of time spent on resolving the issue with this game [Posted on 2008-10-26]
As with everyone else - disc 3 was defective. Amazon shipped me out a second game, and it still had the same problem. Microsoft did send me another disc 3 at no cost and it works fine and my son is having a blast. But it did take me over an hour with the Microsoft representative to figure that the original disc 3 was bad and by then, it seems Amazon would have known that most customers would be unable to install disc 3. It took approximately 5-7 days (Microsoft says 10-15 business days) to receive the other disc from Microsoft. I feel Amazon should have pulled it from their inventory or put a hold on it until the issue was resolved. I think everyone should receive some sort of price adjustment or credit either through Amazon or Microsoft. This game wasn't inexpensive and to not be able to play it for a couple weeks after purchasing due to the issues it had and the time it took to be resolved, it only seems fair.

Remediated Zoo Tycoon 2 Ultimate Software Issue [Posted on 2008-10-30]
I purchased the Zoo Tycoon Ultimate Collection upon release and had the same installation problems. I called Microsoft and today I received a complete new set of disks. It took about 15 days to recieve the disks. Microsoft says 10 days. Upon reciept, I was able to promptly install Zoo Tycoon Ultimate. The Microsoft Technical Support stated that the issue was that Disc three was really a mislabled Disc 2. If you go to your computer and select your DVD/CD icon with the faulty Disc 3 in the drive, it will read ZTD2 or something similar. My kids have not played it yet, but I am sure they will be very excited.Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection

Has uploading issues, STILL waiting for the replacement disc [Posted on 2008-11-02]
My son has been counting down the days until this release, driving me absolutely insane ;) First, it was not released on the date originally indicated, this happens sometimes, not a big deal. So I ordered from Amazon to deliver when it finally DID get released.
The game was waiting for us when we got back from vacation and my son was so excited! Unfortunately, I can't give an acurate review on the fun factor of the game due to the fact that once we began uploading it, there was a failure on the third disc. I called the number indicated on the Zoo Tycoon website, and they were closed. So I tried again the next day. I was told that the third disc had been burned incorrectly, so it was actually a duplicate of the second disc. They "will be happy to send us the correct disc and we should receive it in 5 - 10 business days." On the eleventh day, we called because we still had not received the promised disc. At that time we were told "it just shipped out today and to expect it in the next 5- 10 business days". So the game that was supposed to be released on September 30 still is not in our possession on the 2nd of November. Needless to say, my son is dissapointed, but has learned a valuable lesson in "rolling with the punches". I hope the game is as good as he's expecting. I know he thoroughly enjoys the other Tycoons, so here's to crossing fingers!
