You really should buy this game. [...] This game is alot better than the other two Airport tycoons. The people writing the reveiws simply thought it would be WAY better than the other ones, so when they saw that the game was not as much better than the other Airport tycoons as they thought it would be,[...]

This game is going to take some time to accomplish

Wow this game is interesting it takes alot of time so unless you have some time on your hands because it is a pain in the butt. It looks like it would be fun though once I get it all set up but not sure when I can get it all set up.lol Make sure you read everything that comes in the box because the camera angle it starts with really sucks. If you read the manual though you can navigate pretty easily around the game.

BAD

Do not buy this game. It is boring, unrealistic, stupid, and uncreative. Totally not thrilling. Terrible. Don't waste your hard-earned money.

Make sure your computer fits standards.

This game seemed like it would be really really great, if only it worked. My computer, being slightly older than up-to-date, did not let me play the game. The 'video card' thingy was not the right format to run this game. So before you buy this game, make sure your video card fits the standards. Otherwise, you'll waste 20 bucks like I did.

Not as good as other Tycoon titles

I bought this for my son, an avid 8yr old video game junkie. He picked it out himself because of the "tycoon" name. He has a couple games from the Zoo Tycoon that he loves to play, and for a good report card, was allowed to get another game. He choose Airport Tycoon 3. I must say, compared to Zoo Tycoon, this game is just plain boring! He kept at it, and needed a lot of help from me to even figure it out, and finally built himself a thriving airport, but there really is no action. I'm not sure what age bracket they are targeting, because it's not fun for kids, and I myself wouldn't bother with it.
In addition to this game, he got Sim City 3000 which he is now addicted to. As far as simulations go, this one stinks.

Simple, yet detailed!

This game is AMAZING! The cars move fast (well, faster than AT1), the terminals are great, & I feel satisfied w/ this game!

Don't even bother...... Read the other reviews

This game is a disgrace. It is a total deception for global star, and I hope they read this because I ame never ever going to buy another game from Global star.

The game grafics are ok but the game is imposible to handle.
First of all the view option dont even let you see your own airport. Then when I cant do anything about the view and I give up trying to fix it I build the specified things inorder for the airport to open, but the game remains paused. IT IS FULL OF BUGS. BAck to the views; whenever I change view options and then return to the normal viewmode, the normal view mode is compleatly at another view.
This game is a disgrace to tycoon games and I Hope Global Star will never produce a game. ITS A WASTE OF TIME and MONEY...

Slight Learning Curve

This installment is just a bit harder than the previous versions but the seasoned AT'er/sim gamer can catch on fairly quick. All in all it's a fun game with a few quirks but what would you expect from a series that has changed hands so much?

Confusing interface

I expected to be able to build an airport with this game and have some fun along the way. Unfortuneately the way the game is laid out it is very difficult to place items such as your runway, towers, terminals, etc. on the editing map. The angle of the map cannot be changed in order to place items in a strategic location.
The toolbars are confusing and difficult to navigate. This game is not worth the money I spent to purchase it.

Just what I love

If you love the sim type game and a program with lots of fun, then this is for you. I'm a sim addict and this is one of the best that I got for Christmas.
