RE: re: What games did you play this weekend?
Ooooh! Railroad Tycoon, I believe that was my all time favorite game ever! I even bought Railroad Tycoon II for Linux back in the days ... that was one of the first games ever released at the Linux platform. There was one thing I really missed in Railroad Tycoon II though, the possibility to build tunnels.
I was really into Roller Coaster Tycoon when I was younger. Had a blast trying find ways to overcharge people and build unsafe roller coasters! Never really cared much for whatever goals the game had set out for me.
Railroad tycoon does look quite fun. I've yet to play any of those.
I belive the roller coaster came later. I believe Railroad Tycoon II came out maybe around 1995, and Railroad Tycoon maybe 1990. I never tried the roller coaster Tycoon.
Railroad Tycoon was great when it was released, but I'm a bit afraid trying out old games, they often does not live up to the good old memories. Now that I have a family and a job and a boat and lots of other things going on, I rarely have time for gaming.
Nice! It's in my top 5 for sure, especially on hours spent playing.
Tunnels were a bit of a cheat though eh? Surely you shouldn't be allowed to tunnel the Alps! :D
