ive been playing rollercoaster tycoon on and off since my brother had a sega. i just bought the rollercoaster tycoon 3 gold (w/the splash park). Beside railroad tycoon, has anyone played any of the other tycoon games? whats good? what about that new york city one where you get to build neighborhoods?

ps: i have zoo tycoon on my cellphone but the animals keep dying because i cant look after anything digital for that long.

Dino. Park. Tycoon.

I pretty much get any 'theme' or 'tycoon' game that comes out but i only ever really liked theme park, rollercoaster tycoon and zoo tycoon which is okay but kinda banal and monotonous. I got a copy of new york city tycoon but it wouldn't install properly, i have very lows hopes for it anyway.

Dino Park Tycoon ws great too.

Transport Tycoon Deluxe!

And it's legally free online, for like every OS ever! Well, okay, not /every/ OS. But I ran it on my PC and my Mac.

oh helll yes. i tried revisiting that one recently but the faster cpu speed made it impossible to play.

i thought that at first, until i noticed it defaulted to "fast" mode. which i switched on only when i wanted my cash to build up. works at a normal pace otherwise on my speedy laptop.

what i like about this game is it's really easy to get into and also quick to start over if you fuck up. Getting the lifts right seems essential. clever how you can choose which floors you want the lifts to stop at.

very addictive, and love the sound fx ambience.

yeah, i love the elevator sounds!

will have to check out the speed setting, but i really shouldn't be getting involved w/computer games right now

hobbes, Monday, 10 May 2010 23:33 (sixteen years ago)

ha yeah, i just spent pretty much all night on this - good for me tho as i am bored stupid.

I never had any clue htf to play that game properly..

whoa i just found out that hold CTRL when creating a lobby makes it a two storey lobby, and you get lush spiral stairways

but i just can't get to grips with this game after 3 stars, and all the elevator action is confusing me now.

oh ffs i only just found out i can have multiple carriages in my lift shafts

one year passes...

got hold of Farming Simulator 2011 last night, spent all night driving back and forth on my little field ploughing and seeding and harvesting. actually enjoyed it.

although do not play if you despised the mission in X Wing Alliance where you had to check a whole space-field of containers. as its basically that gameplay all over.

Oh god, those missions annoyed the hell out of me. They'd always be a load of tie bombers crop up with 2 mins to go and destroy your crates before you finished and you'd fail the mission.

Does Farming Sim 2011 have tie bombers?

no just the AT-ATs
