Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 (Platinum) for Windows

Pros: Great graphics
Cons: system locks up

I love amusement parks. I mean I live for amusement parks. Of all the parks I've traveled to, Pa ramount King's Dominion is the bottom of the barrel. I love Simulations. RollerCoaster Tycoon and ...

Pros: Adds more fun to the already addicting Roller Coaster Tycoon.
Cons: It's time for another expansion pack!

Several months ago I had downloaded a trial version of Roller Coaster Tycoon and quickly became addicted to building my own theme parks. Little did I know, my brother was already addicted to this game. One afternoon while he was visiting he noticed the...

Pros: Can be creative at the same time, you can play with it.
Cons: Hard to turn screen the right way and connect the tracks in the beginning.

Introduction First, before we should buy or play any game, we should be aware of the system requirement. And here it is. System Requirement Operating System: Windows? 98/Me/2000/XP (Windows? XP recommended) Processor: ...

Pros: Pretty to look at, riding the rides is neato...
Cons: ...limited playability, load time as long as queues for Space Mountain.

I'm more or less unemployed at the moment and have been dividing my time between Sims 2 and Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 and playing with myself. I'm very productive in that way. Since I've already reviewed the former, and Epinions doesn't have a ...

Pros: Highly entertaining and not just about rollercoasters- love the wild and soaked options
Cons: Addictive, have to limit how long I play it for.

My husband bought me this as a present after I protested about an old copy of Theme Park Hospital crashing in the last level, and let me tell you, I have not looked back.Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 Platinum offers you the original Rollercoaster Tycoon ...

Pros: Coaster cam. Peep and scenerio editor. Ease of use.
Cons: Takes so much "umph" to run it that it can become a nightmare instead.

Update January 10, 2005 I have done some research since I first wrote this review and have found that you HAVE to have at least an ATI Radeon 9200 or an Invidia Geforce 2. Either one with at least 64K of memory. I have also heard that people are getting ...

Pros: Great game play, big step up from previous RCT games, Visuals are amazing.
Cons: Terrible Objectives, weird camera views at times, broken visitors at times, lack of replay value.

To start off I have played every previous Roller Coaster Tycoon game, minus most of the expansions as they are simply add-ons, but I did play the primary games. To continue this game as a fresh break away from the past two games in the series in that ...

Pros: new 3-D graphics engine
Cons: dumbed down physics

As a big fan of the Roller Coaster Tycoon series, I had to have Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, even after being disappointed by the second version, which turned out to be more like another expansion pack to the first rather then a new game. Well, the good ...

Pros: Low Price now, decent graphics, good playability, fun to make your own coasters.
Cons: Repetitive, minor problems with guest, trial and error for coaster, read review.

Oh yes the original Roller Coaster Tycoon game. None of the silly second game that had no additions. This is the game to play if you are bored or if you want to know what it is like to run a business I guess. Plot: This game doesn’t really have ...

Pros: Great graphics, fun game play, a lot of new content for a sequel
Cons: Just never seems like enough content.

The first RCT was a revolution in theme park building games, never has one ever been done as well or as accurate. Just the fact you could create the park of your dreams with all the foliage and scenery included. Colorful and creative designed ...

Pros: Great graphics, ability to ride rides, new features
Cons: Massive computer needed, Camera Glitches,

My friend Caleb and I sat watching the computer screen. I have always been a big fan of Roller Coaster Tycoon. I enjoy the first one and lost a good week of my life to a mega coaster when I decided it was time to build to world's largest coaster. I liked ...

Pros: Great idea, graphics are OK, you can ride the rides.
Cons: Too ambitious, too many bugs, too slow, too awkward to play. No replay value.

If you've played the original Rollercoaster Tycoon games (1 & 2) with their myriad of add-ons, you'll be well familiar with this franchise. For the uninitiated, the idea is to build up theme parks with many rides, including custom-designable ...

Pros: So realistic, you have to play it to believe it!
Cons: Major upgrade in graphics acceleration may give your PC the blues.

Like many folks out there, I have lost hour upon hour of sleep thanks to RCT, RCT 2 and all the expansions in between. For a few months they will collect dust on the shelf, and then one day I'll spot them out of the corner of my eye. Ten hours later ...

Pros: Interesting new additions, lots of new scenarios
Cons: Minor details like rain in arctic climate, not as much new as Corkscrew Follies

To be honest, I was surprised when I walked in the store one day and I saw a new expansion pack for RollerCoaster Tycoon. This one came as a surprise to me, because unlike Corkscrew Follies (the first expansion pack), which was advertised and displayed...

Pros: Great for all ages!
Cons: Trial and error is really the only way to learn building techniques

After purchasing Rollercoaster Tycoon and Corkscrew Follies, I could not wait to find the Loopy Landscape expansion pack! I purchased this game thinking that it would be one that my 10 and 12 year old daughters would like. (Most of our other games are...
