Summary: To the disgruntled who claim it doesn't work on Windows XP.
Review: As an owner of a computer with Windows XP, I assure you that Rollercoaster Tycoon will work. Windows XP has a compatibility wizard that you can use to make older programs work. It's kinda funny though, I didn't use the compatibility wizard and Rollercoaster Tycoon is working just fine on my computer (I have Windows XP). Those complaining probably didn't load the game right on their computer.

Summary: XP - No Go!
Review: Caution ... this will not run on XP, you will have to wait for RCT2 release date of October 15. You have been warned.

Summary: do NOT get!!
Review: Get the Roller Caster Tycoon 2 because even this might sound good but I have got all three games include in this and they not by far as good campared to Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 combined.

Don't spend your money on this were you can get the fully updated version for more options to work with!...

It's your chose either the cheap past version or the moderate updated version!?

Summary: A Great Game!
Review: I bought all of the versions for this game separately, over the years I lost them, so I got this coming in the mail. GET THIS GAME!!! You'll love it! It has excellent graphics and awesome music. The simulation level is even more realistic! The scenarios are nice and challenging, yet fun and entertaining! This game kept me busy for a few good years now. It will do you the same good! Buy this game. Treat yourself some fun!

Summary: Fun for ALL ages (and works in XP)
Review: I bought this game as a Christmas gift and installed it on a single parent family's 1st computer. It went on without any "issues". The oldest boy (12 years old) watched me as I installed it and commented: "What a dumb game; it doesn't look like as much fun as (arcade) or pinball games". I told him confidentially that I had bought the game for his two "littler" sisters. I came back 2 days later and his mom says he started playing the game, now is playing it to the exclusion of all other computer games, is playing non-stop and hasn't come up for air!! Actually, he's learning how to run a business and make valid business decisions. He now has $250,000.00 and many many park customers; his mom couldn't be prouder of him. I hope he doesn't see this review (he still thinks it is a game).

This game has you doing it all: Building roller coasters, ferris wheels, merry-go-rounds, and all of the other types of rides you find at a typical amusement park. You also build food kisoks, drink kiosks, design the park layout, build footpaths, build park benches and trash recepticles, etc. And, you have to hire maintenance, custodial and security personnel. There is a lot of strategy involved and you must listen to your customers' feedback and act accordingly in order to have your park continue to grow and be patronized. This sounds overwhelming but the interface is VERY well laid out, is very intuitive, and, if you start slowly at first, you'll soon be in the "thick of things", totally immersed and having more fun than you ever thought possible from a "dumb old game".

Oh! And by the way, I didn't have to do anything "special" to get it to play on the XP system. I just installed it and was "good to go".

Summary: There's nothing quite like the original
Review: I bought this game pack a year ago and have enjoyed it ever since. It was a good value then, and even more so now with RCT 3 coming out in November. I too would recommend playing the original RCT before you move on to RCT 2 or 3. It may seem pretty rustic, especially compared to the screen shots of RCT 3, but it's a lot of fun and at an excellent price.

Summary: The Best RCTycoon could have offered
Review: I don't have any of the Roller Coaster Tycoon series so I decided to buy this 3 in 1 All Ride Pass. It turned to be a great game. I heard people say it is the best roller coaster game so I had to try it out myself and it was even better than expected! The animation was really cool and it acts like a normal theme park with conession stands and even to my favorite ROLLER COASTERS! Then it has normal favorite rides like Bumber Cars, train, monorail, log flumes and a rapids ride (tire ride that floats on the water A theme park favorite. You have to manage your park successfully to make lots of money to be a tycoon. Then the rest is expansion paks filled with more ROLLER COASTERS! Corkscrew Follies and Loopy Landscapes. The 3 in 1 game pak will keep you busy for the whole summer and then some! Buy it quickly, it was the coolest animations and sounds people screaming on roller coasters!

Summary: The Most Funnest Game That I've Currently Played
Review: I first got into the RTC craze when I saw a student in my school back in May of 2001 playing RTC, I got onto the computer and played it, I was instantly hooked! I knew two expansion packs were available at the time but I was waiting for a release like this one that has RTC and the two expansion packs. I brought RTC Gold Edition recently and I've been playing it nonstop, I am totally hooked on RTC and I can't wait until RTC 2 is released. It'll be awesome running a Six Flags theme park and placing Six Flags roller coasters into existing parks made in RTC 2, I'm hoping that Maryland's [the state I live in] Six Flags theme park, Six Flags America, will be included with RTC 2. I'm going to preorder RTC 2 very soon.
