Hang on...getting a game at a book fair?

Remarkably, at my Year 5 Book Fair, I actually ended up buying my copy of Robot Arena 2 there!  =  P


They always had them there...

What kind of coasters did you like building in RCT2?

I think I mainly built Wooden, Inverted, all three of those steel types with the really boxy track (twister?), Giga, and to some extent Corkscrew, but I never really got good at making those. Inexplicably, I built a 1.5 mile-long bobsled coaster through a mountain range once, but that doesn't really count because I don't care for bobsleds.

I think I may still have the files laying around, should I try to find and upload em?

Ah, well. Still, RA2 was the best Five Pounds I ever spent at School! ^_^

I was a huge RCT2 guy. My sister got RCT3, but it wasn't nearly as good as 2. I liked the really compact coasters because, kind of ironically, I hated wasted space in my parks.

I agree. I happen to own all three of them, but RCT2 is still my favourite. RCT3 is good, but I find it overly-complicated to use, therefore I can't do proper buildings.

All my RC2 stuff is stored on an external hard drive. This came out of my last computer, which I played RCT2 on. Ironically, the thing that killed my old computer was actually RCT3. It crashed, the cooling fan wouldn't come back on, and my motherboard melted :angry:

Anyway ,here are my creations. Some of these files might not work, because I stuck a bunch of custom scenery in my RCT2 files. In fact it's been so long since I ran these I'm not sure which ride is in which park. Sorry 'bout that. They're all saved games because some of my rides needed the whole map.

This old site I used to go has a bunch of downloads for all three games, ranging from park/ride recreations, original stuff, and custom scenery. I have a couple of stuff uploaded there.

My favourites were:
That rollercoaster that went trough the middle of the queue line in the glass tower.
And the one that I made, It got intensity rating of 11.6 and I needed an army of chairs, restrooms and firstaid rooms to keep the exit area clean...

Worth posting: Check out this guy's youtube page. You know how some people put buildings in their RCT parks? This guy makes f***ing cities.
