Rollercoaster Tycoon

Wow, How much of a tool am I? I’m sitting here waiting on my CoH to update and patch, and I get the need to play Rollercoaster Tycoon. Yea, you remember that game? The one where you build the theme park and make everyone throw up. I finally find the cd of it, hidden away in my closet, and low and behold..

“Designed for Microsoft Windows 95/98 Only'’

Fuck me running.

After installing the game anyways, I try to get it running in program compatability mode (windows98), only to find that my latest version of DirectX totally fubar’s the game. It’s like ‘what is this new technology? where is 6.0? WHAT IS 9.0!?!!?!’

Now I’m just sitting here waiting for 2 hours of updates. God damn you boredom.
