Theme Park DS

[Mendez]

I can get it for £20 in GAME, and I've just finished school, so I was thinking about buying it. Is it worth it?

RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 is my favourite ever PC game, but it can't be anywhere near as good as that.

It looks good, but I'm really unsure about buying it.

Get Puzzle Quest DS instead. Much better game, and deviously hard to boot.

Also, off topic I know, but does anyone know what I'll get for Metroid Prime Hunters in a UK GAME or Gamestation?

Just to clear a bit of confusion there, it seems you're thinking of Puzzle League, which is an update of Tetris Attack. INma meant this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puzzle_quest) :)

I could swear it said Puzzle League the first time I read it!

Nope buddy. No edits here. It was Puzzle Quest from the beginning. Either way, get it. And you should be smacked for even insinuating the sale of Metroid Prime: Hunters. Where's Taint when you need him... :wink:

I've just never got into Hunters, especially with the touch screen controls. The gamecube games are much better so I'll stick with them..

I remember Puzzle Quest getting a very bad review in ONM btw..

That's because the pretend-journos at ONM are useless. Puzzle Quest is brilliant, as most reviews (http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ds/puzzlequestchallengeofthewarlords) will attest to. It is, I should warn you, probably the hardest game I've played on the DS so far though. All the better for long-term appeal, say I.

I already told Kevin, even if he seems not to have noticed, but how's that you do not even explore the options on your games?
Hunters has a lot of different configurations possible, with or without touch screen, for a total of 8 different setups (considering switching Y axis).

There is NO review, on the internet or on paper that says that Puzzle Quest isn't a good game (Yes, I know I'm exaggerating...).
It's a brilliant concept, perfectly implemented. And I find playing on the same grid in turns is something that I never saw.
And yes, it's hard, I love these things!

Meh, Game Informer likes it... but they still suck anyways...

As for the original subject, I like Theme Park. Works marvelously with the touch screen. It was one of my favorite games from the DOS days and it's still fun today. In many ways, it also was one of the original tycoon games. Yes, Railroad Tycoon was possibly the first, but that genre didn't really come to fruition until Theme Park.

The only one thing I don't like so much about the DS version is that you can only save one park at any given time.

I've gone off the thought of buying it now anyway, though I might get something tomorrow.
