Okay game. Could be better. On the next version, they should fix it up a bit. But still a game where you can use your imagination. So get this game if you like these type of games as well as strategy games.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS ONE OF A KIND GAME! IT AMAZED THE HECK OUT OF ME AND ANY CHILDREN OUT THERE WHO WANT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS, BEG YOUR PARENTS TIL THEY SAY YES! THAT'S WHAT I DID. IT WAS WELL WORTH IT ALSO. IT HAS ALL OF MY FAVORITE RIDES FROM SIX FLAGS, EXCEPT SCREAM, WHICH IS NEWER, BUT I LOVE THIS GAME. MY BROTHER HAS IT, MY FRIEND, HER SISTER,ME AND PROBABLY THE GUY I LIKE, ALTHOUGH HE SAYS THAT BECAUSE HE'S MEXICAN HE DOESN'T HAVE A COMPUTER CAUSE HE'S POOR. BUT OH WELL. ROLLER COASTER TYCOON 2 IS THE ULTIMATE CHRISTMAS PRESENT. THE ONE I WANT THIS YEAR IS THE SIMS. WHEN AND IF I GET IT I WILL TRY TO WRITE AND AMZING REVIEW FOR AN AMZING GAME JUST LIKE ROLLER COASTER TYCOON 2. I'VE HEARD THAT ROLLER COASTER TYCOON (THE ORIGINAL) WASN'T THAT GOOD, BUT FROM MY PERSPECTIVE I WOULD BUY ROLLER COASTER TYCOON 2 AND THEN DOWNLOAD SCENARIOS AND STUFF OFF OF THE ORIGINAL ROLLER COASTER TYCOON GAME AND THAT IS WHAT I DO AND IT'S AWESOME! SO LISTEN TO ME AND BUY THIS FUN GAME WHERE U CONTROL THE 25 DIFFERENT THEME PARKS AND MILLIONS OF CUSTOMERS THAT COME TO YOUR PARK . BUY THIS GAME, I KNOW YOU'LL BE PLEASED. THANKS!!!

Terrific

I just played the demo and found it very entertaining. I notice that a lot of people would dissagree with me. How many of these people have windows 98 but are dieing to upgrade their system? They only hold back because of their computer games. RCT2 lets us upgrade our systems and yet still be aible to play a good game. I also think you had set such a high standerd of what YOU thought would make a good sequel that you got very dissapointed at what it REALLY was like. The only reason I took off a star is because of the graffics and it's a bit slow. I am getting the game very soon and I can't wait. I am nearly exploding with excitment!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't Work Right

Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 was good, when it actually worked. I got it and tried to install it and it wouldn't work. We exchanged it for a different one and it installed, but it froze up a lot and we never could play it. When we did install it, it took a long time for it to load. It also takes a long time to get to a scenario. Don't buy it. It's a waste of money and it doesn't work.

Best ollecoaster Tycoon Ever!!!

"BETTER THEN EVER!!!" Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 is the best addictive game there is. Once you start, the fun don't stop. WARNING: I put it on a compuer with Windows(r) 98 and it did not work -- I put it on another computer with Windows(r) 2000, and it worked, so its better to putit on there because, there is a 50/50 chance it will work. CAUTION: Read the book FIRST! I didn't, but then I did and it was like I designed the game!

If you are a b ig fan of the first game, don't buy this one!

A lot was promised before the release of this game. New rides, new coaster types, new shops and stalls, a great new scenario editor, larger landscapes, unlimited rice pudding, peace on earth, etc etc etc...

However, I fear this game is and will be a huge dissapointment to die-hard fans of the original game. While it is true that there are a few new things (and I really do mean a FEW) they have also removed many features of the original game that made it a lot of fun.

First of all, don't believe the hype about all the new rides. There are, in fact, only several new rides (only 2 new flat rides that I counted, as a matter of fact). At first glance it seems like there are a heck of a lot, but what's actually happened is that instead of being able to change the ride vehicle on a single type of ride, different vehicles on the same type of track now count as different rides. Go figure.

They have added a lot of new scenrery, which allows you to do fun things like build complete buildings, but the way in which you acomplish this is very cumbersome (and actually impossible sometimes considering the game won't always allow you to stay in the underground view mode while placing objects). Furthermore, they took almost all of the "building" land types away (and replaced with scenry walls) which means where it used to take a few seconds to build a nice building, it now takes hours of tedious work. (This IS supposed to be a game right? How is this FUN?)

You also can not mix path types and support structures, like you could in the first one. You are also limited to the rides, attractions, and scenry you can have in any given game, meaning you can NEVER actually use everything.

The final straw for me in this new game is they also removed the ability to use the "landscape brush" in the game mode. In the previous incarnation, you could click the landscape brush until you were able to make mountains and valleys with a single pull-up or push-down of the land. You'd get nice smooth terrain out of it. NO MORE. You can only do it in the scenario editor, and not in the game. WHAT A PAIN! Now if you want to landscape you must shape each individual square of land. (How is this fun?)

If you are a die-hard fan of the original game, save your money and skip this one, at least until a better version comes out.

Overall this game is worth the money to buy. It consists of building your own park, naming it, creating roller coasters, thrill rides, waterparks, and more. This is the ULTIMATE tycooning game. A-Markets reccomends this to you because it is a HOT new release...

Awsome, totally awsome!

This is over 100 times better than the origional, even with the expansion packs. The price is another good reason to buy this K.A. game.

Okay , this game is very.....interesting. I own the 1st Roller Coaster Tycoon game and compared to that one , this one its a bit more challenging , has wayy more parks (^_^ YAY!), way more shop stalls ( FINALLY ) , has more of a variety of Entertainers (ya know , the ppl in funny suits that go around and " entertain " ppl) , tons more music for the rides , more roads and enterance lines , more scenery , and also has wayy more rides! Over all its a pretty awesome game (chock full of more stuff) and the only thing I can find annoying about it is the fact that sometimes the music annoys the heck out of me.
