Good game, good memories

If i recall correctly, the game speed is tied directly to the CPU speed. After I had upgraded to an AMD 1.2ghz all the kids ran around like they'd hit the E-Number jackpot! Would love to see how the game runs natively on todays CPU's

Prefered Theme Hospital, thought Theme Park looked a bit odd, I did play it and own it though, but compared to Hospital it was okay then wouldn't stand up against Rollercoaster Tycoon.. although they're not that comparable but what I wanted in a theme park type game was filled by RCT.

Yeah Theme Hospital was a classic, but Rollercoaster Tycoon was just better than Theme Park in every way.

Preffered transport tycoon myself had more longevity for me.

Loved the theme x games though. Happy memories happy days

Oh yeah well Transport Tycoon is one of my fave games ever if speaking about a game from my youth that I still love.. OpenTTD n all!

Theme Hospital was definitely better. Think I got them in one of those 2-pack huge box things.

Bullfrog produced some badass games for me as a kid, this was one of them.

sharkkk · 15 May 2011 at 04:03

Everything bullfrog is a winner, s'what got me into gaming!

Transport Tycoon > Rollercoaster Tycoon > Theme Park.

Fact.

Dungeon keeper works great on windows 7. Might have to start playing it again, I got to about level 20 a couple of months ago

This.

A lot of people didn't like Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, and the "campaign" mode certainly wasn't as well designed as earlier RCT games, or even Theme Park, but with all the mods and custom objects people created, the sandbox mode was possibly the best I've ever played.

Just look at some of the parks people create in here:

True, but RCT was also released 5 years after it

Just wish I could get RCT2 working on windows 7

I don't know if any of you guys are iPad owners, but i seriously want to petition molyneux to rewrite theme park, theme hospital and dungeon keeper for tablet PC format. Would Be Freaking Awesome.

Well if you run a windows or linux based tablet, you can still run it under ScummVM

I'm surprised EA haven't already done it, would make a fortune!
