Rollercoaster Tycoon 3: Wild! Expansion Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was a little skeptical of the Wild! Expansion pack at first, but after the price lowered, I finally found time to buy and play the newest addition to Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. The idea is to now integrate, instead of water rides, wild animals into parks. Peeps pay to walk on 'viewing galleries' to get a good look at your wildlife. Choices range from Polar Bears to Ostriches to Gorillas and much in between.

The parks now look noticeably different than before. Many of the objectives are unfamiliar, such as making a certain profit off an animal, or obtaining a certain number of an animal. Although this is all new, it flows well with the RCT3 game and feels very comfortable after just a few quick scenarios.

The scenarios feature a wide variety of theming and landscapes, including the two new styles of scenery, prehistoric, and safari. The new scenery items include giant dinosaurs, and swooping safari trees. Both are great additions to the animal enclosures. The gameplay seems much simpler on Wild! than the previous two RCT3 titles. Most of the levels are not very challenging, although they do (for the most part) take a few hours to complete (if not longer). I cannot say they aren't a lot of fun, though. Once the animals begin breeding, the galleries can become hugely profitable, and it goes uphill for the coaster enthusiast from there.

Finally, as with Soaked!, Wild! has improved the tunnel feature again (and thank goodness!). Tunneling roller coasters as well as footpaths is as easy as it was in the original games, if not easier. Roller coasters can be built into hills automatically, and underground footpaths are rarely challenging. This adds a lot of functionality to park design, and works great with the animal enclosures since paths can tunnel below them, popping up in the middle to host viewing galleries.

I am pleased again with the newest RCT3 expansion. They have really turned RCT3 into a great looking and functional game that is easy to pick up and enjoy with hardly any frustration or problems. If you already have the first two parts of the RCT3 series, don't hesitate to pick this one up as well.

Roller Coaster Tycoon Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This addicting game is a best seller and for a good reason. This fun (and sometimes funny) game requires a lot of free time, a strategic brain, and a good imagination.
RCT has a very user-friendly interface. It is easy toroam around your park, create and maintain rides, hire staff (janitors,mechanics, security guards, and entertainers), keep the park clean, andmuch more. Even if you're new to this game, a quick overlook at the game'sfeatures will get you going. But even a quick look won't satisfy you withthis very addicting game. I can guarantee that you'll want to play this allday and night.
Creating your own ride is very fun. Make all the drops,vertical loops, etc. you want. But be careful to keep within the budgetrange! Sounds hard? It gets harder as it unlocks more parks as you completescenarios. But no matter how hard or frustrating it is, it will get morefun as you research more rides and attractions as time passes.
So ifyou're trying to beat the park objective, keep within budget range, createthe best roller coaster, keep your guests happy, or just play for fun,you'll agree from the minute you get into the game that the best sim gameever has finally come to PC!
The expansion pack is a great addition to agreat game. Be sure to include the Corkscrew Follies addition with yourorder.

ATV Offroad Fury, Greatest Hits Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is a must. If you love four-wheelers or just racing games, add this to your PS2 library. If you have ever played Smugglers Run and love the choice of roaming around, you'll love ATV Off Road Fury. First, the good things: This game has INCREDIBLE GRAPHICS!!!! The graphics are crystal clear with outstanding surroundings and breath-taking backgrounds. This game allows you to do 6 options, Training, Maxxis Nationals, Stadium Supercross, Freestyle Competition, Cross Country Enduro, and Pro Career. You can customize your four-wheeler by fixing its tire friction, front and rear shock, front and rear spring, gear ratio(speed and acceleration), steering, and braking. You can also choose between 20 ATV's, including top brands such as Ravage, Honda, Yamaha, Havoc, Kawasaki, and Polaris. Here's a description of the options. Training mode teaches you the basics of becoming a pro, from riding wheelies to landing jumps. The Maxxis Nationals allows you to practice or race in beautiful outside courses. The Stadium Supercross lets you practice or race incredible inside courses with humongous jumps. Freestyle competition and Cross Country Enduro have enormous jumps and let you roam around or race. If you happen to roam around, look for cacti, trees, buildings, campsites, airports, and more in these wonderful 3D landscapes. Pro Career allows you to race in certain courses in order to unlock new ones. The things I love the most about this game are the graphics, the humongous jumps, all 20 3D courses, and all 16 tricks they allow you to pull off. This game will also keep your appeal. You will never get bored from this game. Another this is the music and sound. They are crystal clear and play some pretty neat songs. Second, the bad thing: This ISN'T A BIG DEAL but could be improved to make the game even better. The camera angle doesn't allow you to switch to an inside the driver view, therefore not allowing you to feel as much of the high altitude and crashes as with other camera angles. The closest view is from behind the driver.Overall this game is an absolute must have for all of the intense racing fans.

Star Wars Battlefront Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, I would like to say that if you have any doubts about this game..buy the Star Wars Trilogy DVD collection because it comes with a free demo of SW:Battlefront.Let me just say that this game is probably the most incredible game I have ever played for the xbox (except KOTOR).In Battlegrounds you can re-live all of the battles of any of the movies!There are a ton of planets that you can journey to to fight your enemy.Theses planets are: Hoth, Tatooine, Endor, Yavin 4, Kashyyyk (Wookie homeworld, also in KOTOR),Bespin (cloud city), Naboo, Kamino, and others.

Now for the units.. It took me about 25 minutes before I could actually decide what unit I wanted to be.The choices are vast in numbers and all have tons of advantages in their own ways.I wound up picking the Republic Pilot, because I loved flying.My second choice, however, would have been the Republic Sharpshooter.The Classes are: Alliance, Republic, Separatists, or the Empire.The Units for each Class vary greatly, and each one is unique!

There is a single player on this games, and you can go head to head, or do conquer missions.The SP is a good idea to play at first just to get used to the controls and the surroundings at first.However, if you have Xbox Live, things just got better.You thought that you had a lot of choices with the units...well, that is nothing compared to what you can do on Live!You can play your favorite battles with up to 16 other players and customize everything you want.You can chat with your allies or taunt your enemies throught the live communicator.

PROS:
-Excellent graphics
-tons of worlds to choose from
-Tons of units, and space ships available
-Excellent depiction of the battles that took place in the movies

CONS:
-None (except if you dont have Xbox Live...get it...this game might not be totally meant for Live....but the best battles are fought over Live and you are missing out without it!)

Overall..GREAT GAME one of the best from Lucasarts yet!
