Which version is the best?

I asked for Roller Coaster Tycoon for Christmas but there are a few versions out and they don't know which one to get. And neither do I. Which version is the best for someone who's never played with it?

I recomend the RCT2 W/ Wacky Worlds Bundle...You get Everything in the original RCT + Everythin in the new 1 and you get the new themeing/rides in the Wacky Worlds Expansion all for $30

Why am I suprised to see that this thread is still open?

If I had to choose myself I'd recommend RCT2+Time twister,from what I hear WW just falls short of really innovative rides & went overboard on international theming.

TT on the otherhand actually has some useful theming & rides (the trebuchet themed topspin is worth it alone) compared to some of the stuff WW has,in addition to that you caan always download & import custom rides & scenery into RCT2...something not possible with RCT1,that & the scenerio editor are also worth buying RCT2 for.

Speaking of custom rides Amazing Earl's at it again,this time he's working on a round up ride based on the enterprise & it looks good so far...estimated release date is november 28th.
