Which one is "better"... 1, 2 or 3? I loved playing 1, but I'm wondering if either of the other two are better gameplay-wise. Comments, suggestions, flaming?
+1Ahhh, fond memories of deleting a section to have a car fly off the tracks.
While RCT 3 was a fine game, I think Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 (with expansions) is still the best. The 2D-isometric graphics are much more pleasing to my eye than the full-3D graphics used in later games, it has a nicer UI, it's still extremely feature-full, and overall it really stands the test of time.
Furthermore, GOG just released RollerCoaster Tycoon: Deluxe, with all the expansions, for only $5.99. Direct-download, no disc needed to play it, and it's guaranteed to work with Windows 7. Definitely worth the $6 if you ask me.
IIRC, just start playing in any scenario and go the options button all the way on the left I think. Pretty sure there's a check box option there for windowed mode.
Are there any newer PC games like RCT, or anything else like it? Never got into Sim City.
