A little too easy, but very fun.

I am 13 & an writing this on my mom's account. I have owned this for a little more then a year.

I have owned all the Rollercoaster Tycoon games, & I have enjoyed each of them. For those who liked the original camera angle, there is a isometric setting.

With an old (by electronic standards) computer you can't see features like reflective water, but with a newer one it looks great. I have a 2 GHZ processor, 2 GB of ram & 256 MB graphics card & can run it at full detail settings & get great frame rates.

I have noticed 3 problems however, when a crashing roller coaster hits a wall, it just bounces off! Also the guests can still walk through each other & when simulating wind, the whole trees sway; not just the leaves! The games also a little too easy, & parks are earned without a major effort.

But the "ride the rides" feature is great! Now I can show my older brother why his custom roller coasters are "guranteed to make you puke"!

This game is not as much fun as the first 2 Roller Coaster Tycoon games. A little disappointing.

Fun for all ages

Both of my boys, ages 11 and 7, love this game! The little one likes to do goofy things like let all the monkeys loose, and my older son likes to see how well he can do. Either way, they both enjoy it a lot!!

Fun & New

Great game. Alot like the original but harder as well. It's a blast to be able to hop on all the rides you build. Lots of fun.

A good educational game

Por fin, la mejor version de RCT3 acaba de salir. Con esta edicion Platinum no solo se obtienen las ultimas expansiones y el juego original, sino ke tambien se corrigen ciertos bugs de ediciones anteriores y ke no eran tan completos como este.

I bought this game for someone and they absolutely love it. They had the previous rollercoaster tycoon games but likes this one better.

Great Game

I have not been playing this game long. I received it as a gift for my Birthday a few weeks ago and have been playing ever since. This is a great game. The Platinum edition is a great deal. However, I do not think I would have paid the money for all 3 games seperately -- I am disappointed that there is no undo button like in the first Rollercoaster Tycoon game because I ended up using it a lot. The load time is forever and my computer moves slowly sometimes (usually when I am trying to put in a Rollercoaster). I don't understand because my computer meets all the requirements for the game? Oh Well... overall I like this game.

Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 is a Blast

I'm a big fan of RCT2 and was dubious that RCT3 would hold up, given the major refactoring into full 3-D. Granted I haven't had a chance to play it yet, but my kids (ages 13, 11, 8) have been on it for a couple of weeks and rant and rave about what an awesome game it is.

This is a great game, because now you can create yourself, your friends, and vitually ride your rides using coaster cam. You can also switch the time of day from day to night, so you can see the rides with lights with laser shows and fireworks in the background. The disadvantages are that it takes a long time to install and load. Sometimes I have experienced short pauses or even stops in the game. Even with this drawback, I still love the game and would encourage anyone to purchase it.
