My husband loves video games and I do not know. LOL. However, we did a study in our Sunday school for marriage and his need for "shoulder to shoulder" time ... or simply, the time to play with his wife. So ... I thought about it and took a computer game that I thought would be fun to be the third Roller Coaster Tycoon
Product: Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 Platinum (which has three amusement parks, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, Wet and Wild.)
Where to buy: We bought it for a bargaincoming out of business sale at CompUSA, but you can always buy a game or electronics store, I'm sure.
Price: between $ 25 - $ 30 maybe less if there are still some left CompUSA!
Rating: 8
Review: After my husband and I actually installed it is a blast! There are so many things you can do for you! He has challenges, custom events, a no limits option, and much more. You can use a regular amusement park, zoo, water park, or a combination ... oh, and making coasters isCOOL!
It 'very easy to use and ideal for the whole family. E 'rated "E" for everyone. I think it's a great gift for a teenager as well. It teaches them about money management and problem solving skills ... in particular the challenges.
I would recommend this game to anyone. And go ahead and pay a few dollars to get the two additional parks ... Makes it more fun and adventure!
Cons: Unfortunately, there is a great scam. We almost gave up. However, there is afixes that I found at the end of this report. This game is not compatible with Vista when using the correction. You get an annoying error message and will not be able to play the game. It 'been a real pain, and I had to try and try and try a few fixes before I found a simple, it worked! I think that Atari needs to fix this minor setback. But for now ...
Windows Vista / Dual Core Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 Platinum correct installation
(Note: this can for iuseRCT3 regular. The file will be held RCT3.exe RCT3plus.exe
It 'very important that you follow these instructions, otherwise you need to uninstall the whole game and start all over again.
1 Install the game.
2 After the installation, groped NOT start the game.
3 Delete the shortcut on the desktop.

These links will open a blank Web page and a file download dialog.
6 From the File Download window click Open, extract the new or RCT3.exeRCT3plus.exe in the original folder (where the file was renamed). Or, you can extract to your desktop and then open the file, and then drag it to the folder. That it is easier for you.
7 In both cases, if you do this, right click on the new or RCT3plus.exe RCT3.exe and create a shortcut on the desktop. (You must make sure that the old one has been canceled or will be all messed up and I have to start all over again!)
8 Once this is done, close all programs, andRestart the computer. Once you get back to your desktop, click the new shortcut and you should be ready to go!
If you have any problem, uninstall and try again. You can also try to visit the Forum Roller Coaster Tycoon (rollercoastertycoon3.com)
