    So, who here likes/remembers/still plays Roller Coaster Tycoon?

    1 & 2 were a pretty big part of my childhood, and while 3 was less of my childhood I can assert that in my opinion it is the best one.

    I could talk about 3 for hours, it's probably one of my favorite games ever.

    But I still think 1 & 2 are great games, and those and 3 will probably be remembered as some of; if not the best tycoon games out there.

    So, what are you're guys' thoughts/feelings on RCT?

    Oh man I would hate to count up all the hours I spent on RCT2 when I was younger, I remember having some massive theme parks that were so big they used to slow down the PC.
     
    1 and 2 are my childhood indeed! 3, I got but never really got into. The 3D didn't jam with me as well as the pixlyness of the older titles did, I guess. I had loooads of fun in both RCT and RCT2, making custom maps as well as fighting through the scenarios. I didn't always manage d:

    I disliked about RCT1 that attractions got old super fast and nobody wanted to ride them anymore so you had to rebuild. That wasn't as much of a problem in RCT2, but there you instead had to choose between high entrance fee or ride fees but no entrance fee. I almost always opted for entrance fee and no tickets whenever I could, as that let me build whatever I fancied and still earn good money as long as my park was overall popular.
     
    Gonna give a shout out to OpenRCT2. It's a giant bugfix/modernization/quality of life mod for RCT2 that also lets you import the RCT1 scenarios if you have RCT1 installed. Listing all the changes would take pages (a shorter list is here), but the biggest one for me is multiplayer! Definitely worth checking out, you can grab it here: https://openrct2.org/downloads/releases/latest
     
    This game made me won an ward for best art in my high school of the year. lol xD All I did was use the tree models in the game to paint the actual trees in and made a cluster of trees with details base of of every tree in this game lol. I would play this game for hours all of them infact I have roller couster tycoon world on my pc however it so fill up and the people get stuck somethings stupidly and it lags like crazy even on a high end gaming pc...=/ same with theme world or the other roller coaster theme world but they don't let you make coasters like before too many limitations and people wont let you get or make a five star roller in the game...not a lot of options really..I do miss the old ones. I'm into zoo tycoon too and sea world tycoon..hell..When we was on walmart internet and netzero dial up internet that all I would play for hours besides other cd rom games. lol^_^..
