Rollercoaster Tycoon's amazing. Won't work on a console though.

Rollercoaster Tycoon should be fine on the Xbox. that's why they formatted it for the Xbox too.

i downloaded the Jurassic Park: Genesis demo yestoday. my god! it took me like 5 hours on my 56k :-|

but it was so worth while :-) if it wasn't Mother's Day today then i would of been uncontrolably drawn down town to buy it. in the PC demo you get a taster of things. in the strategy part of the game you get to breed (can't spell these!) t-rex, gallermimus and tricertops. you also get to feed them. that's all, no cages. in the safari part of the game you get two flavours: A) hunt with the helicopter, all the loose carnivores before they destroy the park (you're on a timer). and then you can take thrill-seeking tourists on a close encounter with the dinosours. you take them for a ride in a JP car. you have to get them 10 or so high-quality pictures. and these thrill-seekers'll pay you lots of money ;-). you also get a quicker training course, camera angles, selecting dinosours, stopping a rampage etc. all the basics. this game's awsome! :-) i love it! i want it! i need it!

i'm a huge fan of the films and i love dinosours. t-rex is my favourite, ever since i was like 7! they rule, they're the kings of the jungle! if you're a fan of the films and you wanna show John Hammond how it's done then buy it. if you like dinosours buy it. look, just buy it! i am :-D

yeh i think ill give them both a 10 day free rental, its just that i havnt seen any reviews of RT and some average reviews of Genenis. I love the idea of theme park with dinosaurs, sounded like the perfect game to me.

Get Roller Coaster Tycoon on PC. As I said, it won't work on a console.

as i said, they formatted RT onto Xbox so you can play it on Xbox. you don't have to bother with installing it, starting up your PC, possible restarting your PC when you've installed it, etc etc

You seem to have misunderstood. If you've got a PC, it's much more logical to get Roller Coaster Tycoon or Operation Genesis on that. First of all it's cheaper, secondly you can download patches and extras and thirdly, it's a well known fact that strategic games such as these aren't much fun on consoles. They're made for keyboards, and mice.
