Hospital Tycoon?

keogh · 7 Jun 2007 at 12:47

Howdy,

Anyone got this game yet? I was a HUGE fan of Theme Hospital, and when I heard bout this I was very excited... then I read info on it about it being like a soap opera which screwed things up for me. Eitherway, I know it has a sandbox mode so I have bought it anyway... should get it tomorrow.

But has anyone here got their copy today? Is it any good? And does the sandbox mode go away from the stupid soap opera theme and concentrate on the building/running of the hospital?

If anyone could whet my appetite for this game, that would be great

I should hopefully have it tomorrow too, but I'd still like to hear your opinion on it when you get it. I hope Im not disappointed... I can still play Theme Hospital to death to this day... just want an updated version, and this could be it (FINGERS CROSSED

I'm interested, I loved TH!! but i never completed it though

Want to hear some feedback first though before I buy

I hate to say it, but I read from a PCGamer review that its not all its cracked up to be. Don't expect anything amazing.

on a popular software e-store it is still saying that this game is only due for release on 15/6/07, is this right?

anyone got it yet? is it as good as the first one?

keogh · 8 Jun 2007 at 13:08

Annoyingly the place I ordered mine from is outta stock, so I gotta wait another week or so til I get mine.

Anyone get it? Im still very keen to know what its like compared to Theme Hospital!

I love theme hospital! cool game!! Would love to hear about Hospital Tycoon. Anyone who have tried it, please post here

PCG did not like it 1 bit, gave it something like 50odd percent..

If Bullfrog didn't make it then its going to be tosh, imo.

ajgoodfellow · 8 Jun 2007 at 14:36

Games Radar gave it 70%: http://www.gamesradar.com/us/pc/gam...articleId=20070605145044965063&sectionId=1000

I'm really tempted to get this as I really enjoyed Theme Hospital. Most places (in fact all but one) say they've got it in stock so I might pick it up on the way home. Hmm

If Bullfrog name it now I would be amazed since they no longer exist, and it would be made by EA games so would be tosh

Yeah that's my concern. I might wait until the demo comes out - I can't really afford it this month anyway!

NiccoLau · 8 Jun 2007 at 14:49

i just went to see the website of the game (Codemaster). The release date is today? :confused:
