RollerCoaster Tycoon World hit Steam Early Access at the end of last month and in the few weeks since, player reaction has not been kind. Multiple reports of game crashes, freezing, lagging, and other issues are all over the game's user reviews section on Steam. Atari says that it is reading them, and that it will be addressing those concerns.

While I'm not much of a fan of sim games (where's the loot?), the idea of building your own theme park and roller coasters in RollerCoaster Tycoon World does sound kind of fun. Especially if those coasters are scientifically designed to induce nausea in your patrons.

The UK is not overly populated with great theme parks, but that just means our imaginations go wild when we are given the chance to build our own.  RollerCoaster Tycoon World is going to give PC gamers, Brits and the whole world this chance.  Who hasn't wanted to design something that makes people vomit?

When I was in college there was a game that EVERYONE was playing. It was called RollerCoaster Tycoon Deluxe and it captured people's "learning" time, including both students and faculty. It was even used in an economics class I had to illustrate some points regarding capitalism.
