· Quote

This new game is addicting and fun! The detail of the business part of the game is so real it ain't funny.Check it out here... http://www.valusoft.com/store/valusoft/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.75988600



This game even makes you close and repair the rides yourself. Thats not all, you must have enough power generators for your park to run or you will start to lose power in areas of your park. That mean's if a Power generator breaks down, you better have a backup or your ride's in your park will all come to a stop.

You can also get the newest patch for the game here.... http://www.valusoftsupport.com/ProductProfile.asp?pid=511

Just out of curiosity, is the business aspect the main focus?  

The fact that there are cool midway rides like the Chance Turbo, Eyerly Octopus and Chance Zipper make this a tempting purchase, but that is until I saw the name ValuSoft.  Most stuff they have done is exactly that- Value Priced Shovelware that isn't worth the disc it is printed on.  Their coaster creator was absolute crap.  Just my opinion though.  Wink

Your right, most valuesoft games are crap,but this one is where you can build your rides, just like rct3 except the don't have coaster's as far as I know, cause it's a carnival not a park! They do have a nice career mode which you can open new rides and open new locations, such as building your carnival in front of a generic wal-mart called Big-Mart, LOL funny I know, but the game is fun. If you don't want to pay for it yet, I could give you a copy for free threw my FTP site, just let me know!


By the way, you can buy this game for 10 dollars at wal-mart or some other place that has a 10 dollar section of games!

Its alright, I've got the game and messed with it ( a few months ago)...and if your a huge game freak you might want to stay away from it....its not great....plus my carnies are too lazy to take care of the parks i've built...so not much fun in my opinion....but thats your second opinion for you.

Well, I'm not saying it's better than rollercoaster tycoon! I'm just saying it's a good game cause it take a different path, unlike RCT 1,2,or 3 it has some features that RCT collection does'nt! I get bored playing the same type of games, if nothing is different, other than new rides or shop's. And it seems like RCT3, when you play, has all rides already unlocked! How fun is that!

I like indepth games. Ya the graphic's and AI ain't nothing compared to RCT3, but it gives you different options.

Who cares what Amazon thinks! Just try it! Not everyone likes the same games, thats what makes us all different in this world! What one person thinks is trash, might be a treasure to another!

Well the review are right, theres not much to the game, and it is trash pretty much. Yea sure it gives you something else other then rct3, but If i were to choose Rct3 would still win...I think i'd get better use out of this game as a frisbee.

I know RCT3 is better and would win of the 2, but thats not what I was Talking about. Playing this game is fun cause it's different! Playing the same type of styled game gets old, if your a hardcore gamer like me. Play a game,wear it out,did that, done this! It get old. Sometimes, just playing something different, not because of graphic or high tech gameplay, can have it's fun!

Oh I do agree, it doesn't have to be high tech in graphics, but ride carnival tycoon just sucks. I've played much better games with much worse graphics. I don't care if its differant or what the graphics look like, its really not that great  period.
