The American version of Vega$: Make it Big will start dropping into retail slots shortly.

Global Star, Take-Two's budget-game subsidiary, is hoping to cash in on the tycoon game craze with Vega$ Tycoon, which shipped to stores today.

Released in Europe as "Vega$: Make it Big," the Empire-developed PC simulation puts players in the loafers of an aspiring Las Vegas casino boss who must grapple with the gaming industry's challenges. Rated "T" for Teen, the $19..99 game costs a lot less than your average gambling excursion, and has the following features:

Broad management control allows players to fully customize the inside and outside of their resorts.
Gamers can view their fully 3D casino in a number of ways, from panoramic views to interior detail.
Build attractions to draw in guests including hotels, casinos, bars, clubs, rides and stage shows.
Manage an establishment that can cater up to 5000 hard to please guests, each with their own agendas, desires and budgets.
More than 20 distinct guest types ranging from freeloading cheapskates to snobby high-rollers.
Customizable game play that allows players to adjust goals, competition strength and difficulty level.
