I like all the themeing. I also love the billboard feature and that you can play your own music in the park speakers. I also think that they could have really pulled off the whole idea of being able to see everything in the park from every angle if the graphics where not so damn cheesy. I like the idea, it's just RCT2 has some of the best graphics and is very elaborate for when it was made.

This makes me wish I had RCT2, but I only have 1 and 3. Can you run RCT1 on windows xp? I never tried.

Yea. You should get a copy of 2. It's like 1 but way better.

RCT3 had bad sells(Not Atari, the other one)


I've been seeing RCT3 Platinum on Wal-Mart shelves for years.

Although I must admit, RCT3 was way ahead of it's time.

*edit* Hooray! I'm no longer a newbie!

Honestly, I am pretty sure you are saying that to look cool, but I know that you would still want the game.

I love RCT3 and I still play it occasionally. Too bad they overly themed everything. Talking about the Stalls and Shops.


The custom stalls in the wild! expansion pack solve that problem. They are SOOOO useful. Get some counter custom scenery and you can make a restaurant.
Custom scenery is the best thing invented for RCT3. Now we just need custom track. :)

Wasn't there a thread on the Atari forums about ideas for RCT4 posted by an official or something? I can't remember who posted it but it was by someone official enough to cause quite a stir and reason to believe another installment is in the works.

Here's something for everyone to see.

It seems Atari is asking the atari community for ideas for RCT4. If it does in fact come out than I'm buying it ASAP.

Also, If the author of this thread approves this question.

What would you like to see in RCT4?

Yes, RCT2 had the best theming. But RCT3 has Stormrunner, which is fun, and the Extended Coaster, the best style by far.

But many things about it are annoying, such as not being able to have more than 10 articulated wooden coaster cars on a train.
The arrow suspended & intamin giga cars are freakin huge. And the articulated swinging trains can have no more than 8 cars.
The 4D coaster rotation is set up wrong.
The 'big splash boats' (I forget what they're called) will stop in water.
All the default saved coaster layouts (except Stormrunner) suck.
And many of the new coaster styles in 'Wild' were just plain silly (except robo-coaster, that was sweet).

I wouldn't say the 3d was terrible. It was just all the little things that could've been better. I hope RCT4 is 'true' 3d. Anyone here remember Sim Theme Park or Sim Coaster? That game was absolutely horrible, but building a coaster was more fun than in RCT3. I'd be happy even with that type of construction style in RCT4 (with improved realism of course).
