Looking Back on RollerCoaster Tycoon 3

BnBGaming.com's Declan looks back on the divisive RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, the first in the theme-park management series to add full 3D. With its new look and new features, does it hold a torch to its predecessors?

Ha! I always used to kill everyone with dangerous roller-coasters, traps, and boats that never reach docks.

They were NOT the first. Wtf...Sim theme park definitely came out before this..and it was on the ps1!

Anyway...the lastest that ive thought about this franchise is when is this RCT2 coming out on iphone...thye would make a lot of money.

The closest thing right now is Aircoaster (more like RCT3..but just rollercoasters and scenery..very limited scenery..)

Someone needs to make a realistic theme park game and pleasse make it for home consoles cause I know high settings will run slow on my PC for that :(

Agree or Disagree if you Agree

"The first in the theme-park management series to add full 3D", theme-park management series in question being RollerCoaster Tycoon.

subtenko4657d ago

@TGM your right, I did read that wrong.

What does everyone think about having a realistic theme park though ? :D Imagine crysis, uncharted3, kz3, etc. graphics in RCT4. O_O and make it an online game too and you can ride the rides with your friends in the park. The kinect cameras and ps eye camera could capture live reactions maybe.

Kinect is making a disneyworld (or disneyland) game....soo....yea someone needs to make RCT4 superb

I used to have fun building successful parks......and THEN KILLING EVERYONE! Muahahahaha!

GREAT! At least Rollercoaster 3 was a good game from Frontier, unlike the new RC abominations that Atari is putting out these days. I wouldn't buy the other overpriced RC mobile port that was on Switch, but I'll definitely pick this one up. Assuming it runs well!

- I actually would love the RC Classic, complete package on Switch. I had hoped for something like this for on-the-go play.

Gamerking821350d ago

Damn i would love this on PS4 or even X1, loved the series on PC when younger but i just cant seem to get into pc gaming these days. Guess i just prefer the convenience of a console.

Well hey, Planet Coaster is coming to PS4/XB1 soon, I highly recommend you check it out! It's what Frontier made after Atari took over the Rollercoaster Tycoon games, running them into the ground. Planet Coaster is high quality, the true spiritual successor to RC 1-3.

Gamerking821350d ago

Nice will defo check it out.

SamPao1350d ago

yeah gf wanted to play zoo tycoon and we checked out zoo tycoon 3 and then saw Planet Zoo... they are worlds apart. The Planet games are sooo good

gamefreaks3651349d ago

I may have to check Planet Coaster out. Heard good things about it.

Planet coaster wouldn't exist If Atari had continued to release quality RCT games.

Filthy greedy companies sit on assets and wont use them and the moment the free market capitalizes on the potential they run for the lawyers.
