Get your barf bag ready! The thrilling new sequel to the exciting RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise will make its way to store shelves this Holiday season. RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 will take the series to new heights with brand new features including 3-D graphics, giving players complete control of views around the park, and a front seat to the action with a new Coaster Cam™ feature that allows players to ride the roller coasters.

Yah, I remeber the first one eating up all my free time and then some.

So damn addictive.

Never played the second one because by that time I had grown out of it.

But this one does look promising, i may actually buy it...or just bootleg it...probably bootleg it. B)

Thanks for the update!

RCT2 was hardly different from the original so it's about time they advanced the graphics. Looking forward to this one.

I have to say that RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 was a disappointment, it was basically an add-on for the best-ever RCT - no drastic improvements. Let's hope this'll do better. :)

Well looking at the screen shots the game just look pretty good but will the graphics be better then in number 1 and 2 as they wasnt that good ?
i prefer Theme park because it was more funny and the grapics were abit better

Theme Park Sucks!!!

I remember it was the only game I installed/uninstalled in 15 mins. The graphics are appalling. The gameplay is almost non-existant. I think the people who play and enjoy this game either need to get out more or play better games. I swear when it originally came out, it was given a score of 28% in PC Zone Magazine.

I mean... check the screenshots for yourselves...

Now I know RCT2 was broght out after Theme Park, but we all agree that RCT2 did not expand much in terms of graphics. It was more of an addon then anything else.

My advice. Bin Theme Park Lyrok.

if you want to just ride them and not run a theme park, get NoLimts or Ultimate ride

urm wait there i had much better graphics then the pictures u got 2nd of all u sure that is theme park i meant Theme park made by Bullfrog and i never heard of Sim theme park

also it depends on your graphics card and pc if u can have really good effects
also when u get pics from the net and then u play the game the graphics r allways better on your pc then the ones in the pics

but i&#39;m not saying theme park is better just saying the graphics in RC1 AND 2 were crap also them pics r from THEME WORLD , NOT THEME PARK
