Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 ~ Deluxe Edition previews

Forget the Sims, THis game has kept me addicted since day one. There is something just so brilliant about having families come into your theme park and ride the rides that you build. Especially when its all adjustable with tons of options.

This game is really fun and it will keep Sims fans or any people for that matter addicted.

Great 3D graphics are nice too.

This product reached me in the shortest amount possible and i am loving this product. A very satisfied customer

This is either the best tycoon game ever, or the best game ever (The best game ever in my opinion) There is 368 different rides, and about 100 different scenarios, and once you've finished the game, you can make your own scenarios. There are endless possibilities in sandbox mode, with no money, time, or space hassels!!! you can make your own rides so the fun never ends!!!

Fun and easy to play it allows time to slip by in the real world too fast.

It does take some time to get used to the new controls and the different restrictions on certain rides but once you learn these differences the game is an excellent successor to the original.

This game is really bad, I uninstalled it almost straight away.

I love this game, it tops the first two games in every way and let's you experience the rides like never before. This also includes the expansion packs that add an extra something to the game. if you are a fan of rollercoaster tycoon, or justlike tycoon type games then this is great for you.

I have only played RCT 1 and I absolutely LOVED IT! I am only 9 years old and it is my birthday in 2 weeks I seriously wanted this game for my birthday. I have played the RCT 3 demo and it was AMAZIN' (too bad it was only 45 mins …)! I loved everythin' about it and all of those reviews that have been posted it sounds like that it is the thumbs up for everybody, no complaints. I've been looking everywhere for it and this-is-the-place! So yeah, cross your fingers that I will get the full version!

This are one of the very few awesome non-violent games out there. Whatever age you are, you will love this game. It's in 3D so you can now ride the rides. You can “mix” your own fireworks display. Theres like 220 rides or so, and if you have roller coaster tycoon 1 or 2, you can import your coasters!! Theres also this sandbox mode where you have unlimited time, unlimited money and you can use all the rides, shops, scenery and stuff. So basically it allows you to build your dream park. There are some bugs and stuff but fret no more. If you go to Roller coaster tycoon 3's main web site, thy have this update which you can download to sort out those little problems.

After playing the demo, I got very excited about RCT3. Being a fan of the previous two games, the move to 3D seemed natural now that modern PCs are capable of rendering large scenes. I have to admit, the graphics in this game are jaw-dropping on a decent PC. The UK company that developed this game, Frontier, headed by the same David Braben who wrote Elite in the early 1980's, have really outdone themselves.

Unfortunately the retail version of the game is burdened with some really glaring and nasty bugs, including crashes and savegame problems. However Mr Braben himself has been active on the Atari RCT forum and has listened carefully to the numerous bug reports and issues. As I write this, the first patch is scheduled for release tomorrow (4th Nov) and this should fix almost all of the major gameplay bugs.

Frontier have remained true to the original titles, retaining much of what made RCT a success. There's a bit more micromanagement than I prefer, but the sandbox mode allows you to create your own megapark in your own time, in your own way. One outstanding feature of RCT3 is the ability to actually ride any of the attractions in a first-person view. It's thrilling to build a crazy coaster and then ride it at full speed with a bunch of screaming peeps. You can also render to a movie or take screenshots.

I expect the bugs to be ironed out very quickly. When was the last time you saw the CEO of a development company actively participating in a fan forum? Such dedication to the fan base will pay huge dividends and help to craft this game into something even more special.
