Thrillville: Off The Rails is excellent!! A must buy!
I must say I have always loved the Rollercoaster Tycoon games for the PC and the one they made for the xbox. So with that said I have been waiting forever for a Rollercoaster game for the 360. Finally it arrives!  I played the demo and wasnt sure how the game would be so I rented it this weekend. I instantly got consumed and fell in love with this game. There are so many things to do between all the side games, talking to guests, making friends, creating rides, managing the employees, customizing the colors, you can even ride the rides, then to top it off the game is only $49.99!!!  I played for a few hours and loved the game. Then my girlfriend wanted to check it out and she also fell in love with it.  We only rented it but we will definetly buy this game for christmas. You can spend hours and hours just in the mini games alone.  I highly recommend everyone check out Thrillville Off The Rails. Smile [:)]

Re: Thrillville: Off The Rails is excellent!! A must buy!
I got this for Christmas yesterday.

I have also always liked theme park type games, going right back to Theme Park on my Amiga! IMO Thrillville is just a new version of Theme Park with added mini games, but so far I think it's been done really well and it's been good fun to play. My brother in law also got it (and a shiny new 360 to play it on) and he really likes it too so far. Big age difference between us, I'm 25 and he is 11 LOL

There does seem to be a lot to do, I love the conversation options and the mini games. I'm yet to actually build very much!

The only thing I don't like at the mo, is how you start with a park already built. I'd much rather start from scratch myself, does anyone know if it is possible to do this?

Overall good fun, I'm pleased I've got it.

Pink is the way forward!

Re: Thrillville: Off The Rails is excellent!! A must buy!

Definately a great game and so glad it got marked down to $30, worth every penny.  Not nearly as in depth as Roller Coaster Tycoon, but you can still make some pretty cool coasters.  Park management is simple but that makes it more accessible to the kiddies.  My only nitpick is the stupid power limitation....you should be able to buy a new generator for $10,000 or something to further expand your park, that would make it 100 times better.  Most of the minigames are great straight away, but there are a few that will have you scratching your head until you figure out the point of them.  But classic throw backs to 1942, Super Mario Brothers, Super Sprint, and other easily recognizable games are great and you'll be playing them quite a bit.  Flirting with girls is pretty funny with the STUPIDEST pickup lines you ever heard...haven't played as a girl yet, but I'm sure they have rediculous lines for the boys as well.  Flirting with a robot that then tells you it wants the "creepy human" to leave it alone is a classic.

 

Adults may want to strangle Doc Brown (or whatever his name is), but I found him funny and tolerable.  Perfect game to play with young kids.  Even if the youngsters don't understand how to build stuff or whatever, they can easily go around playing minigames and going on rides by themselves.

Finally had a chance to make some more progress this weekend.  I still love this game and wish I had more time to play it. Now that its marked down to $30.00 I would say this is a game everyone should buy.  I would still easily pay $60.00 for it.

Wow, good deal. I got my copy from E-bay though, and it works perfectly.

It's a pretty fun game. I love the mini-games.

Re: Thrillville: Off The Rails is excellent!! A must buy!

I just became aware of this game today somehow.  I don't know how I missed it seeing as I'm always in game stores (at least once a day).  Weird.

Anyway, after reading about it I think after our garage sale tomorrow I'm going to go out and get it.  I'm real eclectic in my gaming so this should work as my "I just want to chill and have a beer and not really do anything" game, I can only play so much E4 in a week.

Re: Thrillville: Off The Rails is excellent!! A must buy!
I haven't played it yet (I tried the demo), but I was disappointed to find out that like the original Thrillville, this one didn't feature online play.  Considering it has so many mini-games that are playable on the same system, it would have been nice to have a diverse collection of mini-games to play with my friends online....  Really a missed opportunity.

Anyway, the reason why I'm even bothering to type this is because I picked up the game tonight.  I was at Toys R Us buying some presents for my nephew and I decided to check out the games section (which surprises me because the prices at TRU are really ridiculous; $68.99 for a game that's $59.99 at other stores).  I figured, what the heck, it couldn't hurt.  Among all the over-priced games, I saw $9.98 and then I saw it was Thrillville.  So I picked it up and I suggest that others check out their local TRU store (call them first so you don't have to waste gas driving to the store).
