Which out of the 3 did you prefer? , personally i prefered rollercoaster tycoon 1 because you had to do each park before you could move onto the next... The

Worst one for me was 3 , i really hated how some of the rides hardly had any queue's even rides with high ratings . Also the clipping issues was lame with guests having heads going through each other on rides.
 
Had to be no.1 for me, no.2 didn't hold much appeal for me, I tried the demo of no.3 and didn't like it.

I lost count of the amount of hours I lost to no.1, was quite wierd because normally I can't stand these kind of games, but it had me completly engrossed.

Go for number 1 if you cant get that then number 2 , both are budget and don't suffer the stupidity of the ai with the 3rd
 
I've never heard a good word said about 3, but I thought it was pretty good. It had some ai problems, but those were patched out and left a nice game behind. The graphics are great with everything turned on and it has some nice levels.

I remember playing 1 & 2 for ages, but don't think I would go back to them now!
 
3 was awfull, tried the demo and exited and uninstalled it within 5 minutes of installing it.
Choice between 1 and 2 is a hard one, there were a better selection of rollcoasters on RCT2, and having levels which were just roller coasters was great, because afterall, thats the fun part.
I did love the first one though, the levels just seemed more fun, I really can't quite put my finger on it.
 
I don't know why 3 got so much bad press, the demo was awful but the released game was actually pretty damn good, you could build some really cool coasters on it as there was more choice and it had a larger variety of loops, banks and corkscrews etc plus the graphics were very good and you got to ride the ride :D . Still can't beat the 1st one though.

Well the main reason was the terrible ai , retarded ai that would just stand around doing nothing... Ai that would walk past a high ranking ride look at it then go home even though his comment was something like " I need a high ranking ride ". You could have a massive coaster in the hight of summer , with all the thrills and excitement but because the ai was retarded nobody would ride it :eek:

I might reinstall it and see if they fixed the ai :)
 
I played this for a bit recently,got bored quite quickly, could never build a custom rollercoaster that was any good :(
 
Spent ages on RC1 , lost quite a few hours sleep in fact, almost into CivSleepDeprevation Territory. Even the GF had a go and quite enjoyed it.

The only problem i had with it was the landscaping in that sometimes you just couldnt get right view on the camera. If you had RC with the goals but the ability to move the camera in any angle that would be perfect.
 
RCT 1 was great. But i thought number 2 was even better. I made some awesome parks and rollercoasters. But i had a HDD crash and lost everything on it (including all RCT2 save games). After that i just didn't want to start all over again :(

I wish they would make an addon for RCT 1/2 so you could ride the rollercoasters.....

Well, there is this rollercoaster simulator and editor called NoLimitsCoaster. I think you can import your RCT tracks into it and ride them
