Rollercoaster tycoon 3 sucked, it doesn't have the same feel as RC2.

Hate these threads, going to have to dig out RC2 now

Not sure if serious.

Dunno what the fuss is about number 3. It was good in my opinion. The ability to ride the coasters and stuff was epic.

Kosmiche · 12 Oct 2012 at 16:03

Cities XL series
Tropico 4
Cities in Motion
Airline Tycoon 2

Some newer ones there you could look at.

It didn't 'feel' RCT though. It lost it's Mojo!

For one to ride the rides Theme Park World was the best

I thought RCT2 was the best, but RCT3 isn't bad imo, i still racked up some fat game time.

0/10 effort for trolling.

It certainly did lose me, I couldn't get into it at all compared to RCT2!

RCT3 wasn't really a tycoon game. By far its best use is as a sandbox tool. The community is still very strong, and in some ways it's still better than something like Minecraft for expressing your creativity.

Unsure on the policy of linking to other forums, but check out some of the parks people have created on here:
