Still one of the greatest games ever but why did they release it with two of the old bugs still there. If you play on today's PC's, the game speed is either real slow of hyper-fast. Also, a patch to the original made it so you could zoom in or out using the wheel on your mouse but not in this release. I've played this game for hundreds if not thousands of hours and it would still be at the top of my play list if they would just make it more playable.

Who cares? Now if they offered Sid Meier's Railroads! for free THAT would be news.

The funny thing is that this game's already been abandonware for a long time to download for gratis at www.abandonia.com, which is IMHO one of the best abandonware PC-DOS game sites ever (Home of the Underdogs collects PC-DOS, PC, and some other games, so it's a bit different but the greatest one ever, I'm sure).

Abandonia.com DOES have both the original and deluxe versions of Railroad Tycoon! They've also got Transport Tycoon made by the man who later designed the Rollercoaster Tycoon games.

That's right. And latin words tend to make their way into many languages.
