What Gamespot Users have to say about Sid Meier's Railroads!

Rating:7.7
Engaging game, very similar to previous incarnations (RTII, RTIII), has several technical problems that are frustrating.
I've played the previous Sid Meier Railroad games so was already familiar with the concept and tilted toward enjoying it from the beginning. As far as a RTS-type game it has it's pluses and minuses. On the positive sid... Read Full Review

No doubt the best game ever created!!! this game is the bomb
Sid Meier's Railroads is a mix of the tycoon genre and the Railroad Tycoon series. In my opinion, it is the best game ever created. The tracks are so easy to build. Your world will move to accomodate your tracks. You can... Read Full Review

Mostly what I hoped for
Note: The patch came out soon after I submitted this. Having now played it with the patch, I still have the same issues. It definitely grows on you, but I'd agree with many others that it's in dire need of a patch. ... Read Full Review

A little lacking in depth, but addictive!
Essentially, this is a simplified version of RRT II, or RRT III. It doesn't have much depth as either a business sim, or a train sim. However, I still find it to be fun, and addictive. In some cases a lack of depth c... Read Full Review

Railroad Tycoon Lite. That pretty much sums it up.
The anticipation of this game was huge, not because of its name, but because of it’s so-call predecessor name. This was supposed to be the remake of a classic, a classic that we have been waiting for from Pop-Top for y... Read Full Review

A shallow effort that tarnishes Sid's reputation as the father of strategy games.
What a total disappointment, is this game aimed at ten-year-old girls or what? After playing the game for thirty minutes I felt like I had already experienced the game in it's entirety. The maps aren't big enough, there ... Read Full Review

Re-hash of Sid's Classic game is lacking. Very Disappointing SId Meier's Railroads lack of deep game play.
