Right, I'm not a big PC gamer, I play Championship Manager, Rollercoaster Tycoon and things, but I've never really looked up particular games. The other day though, when I was browsing this site, I came across "Transport Giant" and on first impressions it looks very much like "Transport Tycoon" one of my much loved games from years back.

So I was basically wondering, for anyone that might have either played it or know a decent amount about it, whether it might be what I'm looking for.

Thanks in advance to anyone that might have some knowledge.

Cheers, I appreciate the help muchly.

What about this Locomotion? Any links to that, as that sounds even better?

I've reviewed the game myself [URL]http://www.acegamez.co.uk/Transport_Giant_PC.htm[/URL]

Not bad, but not great either. It borrows a fair amount from Transport Tycoon and that means it at least plays far better than many management games out now.

If you liked Transport Tycoon, then you'd be pleased to know Chris sawyer is developing a sequel, Locomotion. Transport Giant should easily tide you over til then.
