Hunting for a good sim game...

I'm looking around for a good simulation game. I like games like SimCity, but that just doesn't do it for me anymore. Also, which is better: SimCoaster/SimThemePark, or Rollercoaster Tycoon?

I've played Roller coaster tycoon and love it. I've heard decent things about simcoaster, but I think Tycoon is the favored for most people. And, it and the add-on(S) can be had for really cheap.

dragonb

p.s. note, you only have to buy the newest add-on, it has both in it.

Rollercoaster Tycoon is far better. SimThemepark was not nearly as good.

it depends if you like to build things or run things.

If its the former, I agree with dragonb. If its the latter you might want to have a look at something like Tropico, where you can run your own corrupt Caribbean Island

For both, Railroad Tycoon 2 still keeps me entertained for hours, though you may want to check out the new SuperPower game if you like nuking things

I have heard that Theme park is the best of the bunch, however Railroad Tycoon 2 is even better
