Looks like it might be fun if you have a motion platform:

I found RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 to be a bit disappointing.

I played the original RCT quite a bit back in the day. Even at the time it came out, its graphics were a little dated-looking, but the game was very well done and nicely polished. Sure it didn't have fancy 3D ridable rides or anything, but what was there worked well. I didn't play RCT2, but from what I gathered from reviews, it was simply more of the same, with mostly reused graphics and only minor tweaks, and was considered more of a standalone expansion than a proper sequel.

RCT3 was a big upgrade in terms of graphics, but the gameplay felt subpar compared to its predecessors, and it had plenty of rough edges and missing features. The first-person coaster-cam was a nice touch, but many other parts of the game felt somewhat lacking. The developer of the first two games had little to do with the development of RCT3, and the lack of attention to detail showed. I never really got into playing it much, though I may revisit it eventually. It's probably worth getting it with the expansions though, since they restored some of the features that had been stripped out in 3.

Quote from geost : Dang. So I downloaded it, but I can't even get the game to start correctly. As soon as I launch it, my screen starts flickering mad crazy. It's almost as if I'm hitting alt-tabbing out (ctrl-tab? lol) between my desktop and the game. wth? I updated my video drivers, and it's still doing it like crazy. This is on my Thinkpad T410 with Windows 8 Pro 64-bit. Anyone have any ideas? I tried compatibility mode, run as admin, and nothing has worked.

Did a little research on google . I found that running it in compatibility mode for Windows 7 solved all my problems since the GOG installer is set up for Windows 7 anyway.

You are running Windows 8 as well? Dang, what gives? I changed my compatibility mode to Windows 7 and I still get the same "Alt-Tab" effect. I even posted on GoG's website and no one knows. How frustrating.
