I reasessed the article's quality, making it a B class because it has everything listed under "B" class requirements. Can someone add more about park management so it can be GA class? Cmputer 13:15, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
I have played the original Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 & 2 a lot and was quite disappointed about the realism in the third game. For example wooden roller coasters could be constructed with loops and some of the effect objects function in completely impossible ways. Hasn't this been criticized by other fans, and if so shouldn't that be included under criticism?--Kopmis, 11 November 2006
I've noticed that the physics for a few rides are way off. My guess is one of the devs is keeping an eye on this article, because there's no mention of the unrealistic qualities the game has. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.201.85.93 ( talk) 13:51, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
The brontosaurus ride was miscategorized as "Generic". It should've been listed under "Prehistoric". I have also noticed that there is are velociraptor and stegosaurus animatronics listed under "Adventure". They should also have been under "Prehistoric".
They also should've placed the water/beach themed items in a separate category. Perhaps they aren't Atlantis or Paradise Island, but they need a separate category.

Yay. (Although I already have the boxed version xD) I added Steam to the publishers list, feel free to make more mentions. Too bad RCT3 for Steam is US only right now. Hang on while I grab the VALVe news post to prove this.... here! -- 218.214.47.219 ( talk) 05:53, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
It should be noted that people are starting to make replicas of rides from disneyland or universal studios. One person even made a very large and detailed version of knotts berry farm. Trust me its all over youtube. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.107.160.195 ( talk) 22:52, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

There is a third expansion called Gold. It has both the wild and Splash coasters/rides on it.
Hmmmm.... I see that nobody has ever expanded the page since it was added in June 2008. SOMEBODY EXPAND THIS PAGE! -- Tamiera ( talk) 23:00, 12 January 2010 (UTC) I'm an avid player, but I don't really see what more there is to do besides expand the development section. Best of Luck, Buggie111 ( talk) 00:14, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
The Spanish wikipedia has a seperate sub-section for Soaked and wild. Should we do that here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buggie111 ( talk • contribs) 13:12, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
I just remembered. Buggie111 ( talk) 13:14, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
We need some properly sourced reviews for the expansion packs, if their still on the web. Please remember to put them in a "table" formant or something like that. 76.21.122.234 ( talk) 00:31, 1 May 2010 (UTC) John
Is this a important part of the game? Please post below and place ":" to indent so the conversation will be clear. Thank you. and keep civil-- intelati 05:10, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
I am shocked to see why there has been no mentioning of the criticisms in this game. In many of the reviews linked on this page (such as IGN and Gamespot), there are mentionings involving the games bugs and glitches. An example is in this question involving problems with viruses (which also happened to this game on my computer recently as well which has caused it to be sent for disposal). A "Criticisms" subheaded section should be included in the "reception" section. trainfan01 7:50, September 15, 2010 (UTC)
there is now a Platinum version for Mac OSX thats recently been released but isnt mentioned here its notable mainly because its actually designed for universal binary as far as i can understand, the original RCT3 for mac, was designed for the PowerPC architecture, and had poor performance on intel macs http://au.gamespot.com/mac/strategy/rollercoastertycoon3/index.html someone correct me if i'm wrong.. 110.174.171.4 ( talk) 04:01, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but there is no way that the recommended GPU for this game is a GeForce 8500, as that card is far newer than the actual game! Should it be 5800? That seems odd as well. Lukeno94 ( talk) 07:39, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

The cover art used in this article is the lesser known UK version, or this cover. The official US cover looks like this: http://pcmedia.ign.com/pc/image/rct3_pcusbox.jpg. Since the game was released in the United States (October 26, 2004) before Europe (November 3, 2004), I propose that the cover should be changed to the US version.
