Video Game Reviews of Trainz Simulator 2009: World Builder
Customer Review: Wanna be railroaders
Summary: 5 Stars
I confess to trying to relive the old days of Lionel trains and the later days of steam of the 50's. I have pretty much all of the TrainZ series, and I am late in reviewing this version since I have already upgraded to the 2010 version. There are considerable similarities between the two, and I have loaded my favorite layout into version 2010 without too much effort and they function pretty much the same. The 2009 version was a major step up from the 2006 version, but 2009 stands well on its own. If you must have the best graphics, wind-blown trees, and more functionality, get the 2010. Many of us "TrainZ" people are frustrated by Auran's method of program protection which always seems to be an attack on those who own products legally, so don't expect to be able to sell any old versions or even give them away. With that said, check the price between the two, and the power of your computer to help decide if the 2010 version is worth it. I find that all TrainZ versions are extremely power hungry, so be prepared to have video cards and cpu's that exceed the recommended minimum or go crazy trying to watch jerky trains running around. In use I find it to be the very best of these type of simulations with many options, thousands of free item downloads, and a layout editor second to none. It allows you to completely build, run, edit, change weather, Etc., or you can import an existing one and customize it your way. It is not for those "shootemups" requiring lightning reflexes or for those needing the rewards of more points or things to do, but is a wonderful way to use your creativity to any extent that pleases you.
