Is there any way to play Roller Coaster tycoon for windows on my G4 iBook? I know they make it for mac but i already have the windows from my other (terrible) windows computer (haha). I would like it to be safe but if i could get it on my mac that would be great!

iBook G4 1.33 GHz
40 GB HD/512 MB RAM
Simple Tech 160 GB External HD

No, but you CAN play an even better game that was made by the same guy called "Transport Tycoon" and you can run the original windows version on your mac natively using the Sourceforge program located here....

I played the heck out of this game and it is extremely fun, much more than "roller coaster tycoon" I think. I just took my original windows cd, removed the data files and voila, it works great!!! If you have never played it, check it out and see what you have been missing out on!!!!
