Grab a front seat--this is one wild ride you will never forget

Finally, the trilogy is complete: GOG.com brings Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 back to your PCs in a definitive digital bundled-with-extras DRM-free package with the Soaked! and Wild! add-ons, all for just $19.99.

Rollercoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum! is a construction and management simulator, in which the player runs an amusement park by building rides, managing finances, hiring staff, and keeping the “peeps” happy. The game features career mode, in which players complete predesigned scenarios, and new sandbox mode where you can literally spend days and weeks designing the greatest roller coaster PC monitors have ever witnessed. The game utilizes full 3D graphics; that not only means you can rotate the camera and zoom in/out on your guests and amusement rides, but also allows you to use the CoasterCam and cruise along with your thrill-ride visitors.

Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 is all the best from its genre--it’s beautiful to watch, accessible but challenging, enormously entertaining, and incredibly detailed when it comes to managing rides, buildings, salaries, prices, and fees. In addition to that, RCT3 packs a few new elements, like a day/night cycle, creating your own fireworks, adding your own mp3 music to the background, and creating your own groups of visitors. This is a tremendous addition to the series, especially since the Wild! and Soaked! add-ons are included.

Run the greatest amusement park in gaming history, available now on GOG.com for $19.99.

ucfalumknight: I remember paying $20 on Steam for a game and then next week it was a daily deal for $2.99, oh the agony!
LA Noire in Russia went from about $100 (PS3 Retail + DLC) to $5 (PC Steam, Christmas) in less than a year.

Would love to try this series but this price is too steep but its better than steam's price.

I hope GOG does bundles though. I would love to see this bundled with the other two because I have OCD and I want to buy every game of a series.

Aw, come on, guys. It's always possible not buying and leaving a poor note/review to a game that is too expensive and go support GOG in another manner.

Even if they end up selling triple A items, if they keep true to themselves and sell in dollars, with bonuses, and without DRMs, I'll have nothing to say on it...

Don't do that! >.<

Reviews are for reviews. Not 'Zomg it's so expensive!! :@'

They are not, it's a way to get feedback, and it should be done. Want reviews? There are other sites for that...

Where's this strange distinction in your mind where 'Want reviews' means reviews are only reviews when they are on other sites? It quite clearly says reviews here too, not 'feedback'. If I check a game, I don't give a crap what someone thought of the price, I can make that decision on my own, I want to read what they think about the game.

A couple paragraphs is NOT a review, whatever how much you want them to be.

Not buying this game before its regular price is downed (12$ would do it to be honest).

End of story.

This generation has gotten to the point where there is little to no reason to buy Games during/close to launch, there is so much competition that games get discounted and devaluated relatively quickly, this is true both for Console and PC games

my memory may be fuzzy but I don't remember it being like this when the PS1/Saturn/N64 were on the market and the previous gen before that

I really want to buy this from here too. I love GOG (even more so now that they released Quest for Glory the other day), but I do agree that 19.99 is steep for a game of this age.

Heck - Amazon.com (I know it has DRM on it tho) is selling the digital version right now for $4.99! The same exact game!

Nope, no DRM on Amazon edition.

I stand corrected. I just assumed that it did.:)

Thank you, I've just bought RCT3: Platinum for $5 on Amazon. Also without any DRM :)

gameon: My country doesn't seem to have the digital downloads option for amazon games. But $5 is almost too cheap!
Well, no one except the US has the DDL option... the thing is, Amazon determines you're in the US solely by the shipping address you provide... and even then they only need the postal code to match the state and not to belong to the White House...

Wow, after reading a few of the comments here, it's pretty obvious that most of the GoG users are insanely ignorant. Gog can only price games that the original publisher agrees with. It''s $10 cheaper then Steam being the best example. Stop trying to compare sale prices at Amazon.com to the steady price here. Amazon price is currently the same as Gog. Stores have sales to attract customers that usually buy other products to make up for the loss. Gog doesn't have that luxury as the comments show us exactly how cheap most gamers are being.
