Planet Coaster: Console Edition Review (TheSixthAxis)

TSA writes: "From the moment the theme song starts being piped out of your TV speakers, you can’t help but be cheerful when you’re playing Planet Coaster. It’s a park builder that has embraced the candy floss, the ecstatic cries of joy, and the freedom of a few hours shorn of any worries beyond whether the person sat in front of you is, in fact, going to vomit during a 90mph loop the loop. Few things in 2020 are quite as vibrant, welcoming or engrossing as what Frontier have deigned to bring to your home console, and it’s fair to say it’s exactly what we need."

Waited so long for this to come to consoles. The PC version was fantastic. Complete 10/10

I rarely submit news here, so sorry for any mistakes that I may have committed

This is good enough. Thanks for posting this.

I think this is an okay-ish month. As a long time fan of Theme Hospital I kinda would have liked to play Two Point Hospital but I might give 2016 game Planet Coaster a try as it's in the same vein. I might have a go on Tiny Tina... I love fantasy, and I know this is a Borderlands spin-off but am not sure if hearing a sarcastic American narrator is the right blend for me but it's worth a shot.

@VenomUK:

This is just a standalone re-release of the BL2 DLC, not the new one.

VenomUK1244d ago

@Kados Cheers for explaining.

Can you edit in something better than UFC? Photoshop cyberpunk over it or something.

Planet Coaster is the one I'm interested in. My brother bought this and its really good. If you like theme park on megadrive (genesis), then this is good for you. Unfortunately this is just for PS5 so my other friends are disappointed because they got just PS4..

darthv721244d ago

Is planet coaster anything like screamride on xbox?

MaximusPrime_1244d ago

Sorry I have not played that game. I checked the videos and it looks similar. It's basically building a theme park and managing it. All set in present day not future.

yeahokwhatever1244d ago (Edited 1244d ago )

yes, they're pretty same-y. having played both, im slightly more partial to planet coaster.

CosmicTurtle1244d ago

Same developer, but planet coaster gets better reviews.

iplay1up21244d ago (Edited 1244d ago )

Played on GP . Planet Coaster is more like Roller Coaster Tycoon. It was on GP for a year. Now I might buy it. For my Series X. Since PS4 isn't getting it with PS Plus.

Planet Coaster is amazing. As someone who used to play the sh*t out of Roller Coaster Tycoon, I was hooked. Loved it and played it all the way to the Plat trophy. Takes a little while to get used to the controls but then it was a very enjoyable experience. Definitely recommend who likes these types of games.

gangsta_red1244d ago

Man...these monthly free games just don't hit like they used to

CobraKai1244d ago

They don’t. On the “Plus” side, I can play some back logged games.

gangsta_red1244d ago

That is definitely a plus

Yeah it's been such a long long....month since the last great ps plus selection...

lodossrage1243d ago

You just got Persona Strikers and Deep Rock Galactic last month.......

FinalFantasyFanatic1243d ago

I was going to say, last month was a really great month for plus, what more are they asking for? This isn't even a bad selection of games for this month either (last month is going to be really hard to top).

Interesting month since the majority of title are not super mainstream games so It's a good opportunity to try new genre.

Crows901244d ago (Edited 1244d ago )

Also a good opportunity to buy any of the other huge titles releasing in February. Pretty sure they don't want to have their selection compete with other huge releases.

They're probably saving for a bigger and drier month.

Fantastic game! I am about to play it for the first time on my Series X! I am not sure how much better it will run, compared to my X1X.
