    Tropico 5

    Did not see a thread for this, so I figured I would start the discussion. Anyone else interested in this game? I am and will be picking it up when it releases on PS4. 4 person island building for the win!

    I loved Tropico 4 and will be getting this on PS4. I wish it was coming out on PS4 at the same time as the PC.

      I have it preordered from GMG. Tropico 3&4 are awesome games so I couldn't resist buying it at launch.

          I just picked up tropico 4. How does it compare to 5? I really like 4.

            I can't compare to 5 since I have not played it, but from the review I had read it is pretty similar to 4. I would love to hear a review from someone on here that has played 5.

            I think I'm waiting for the console version of 5 and probably when I can find it on a decent deal. I had 4 on 360 and loved it. When it was on a cheap steam sale, I sold the xbox version and picked it up on steam. I'm sure 99% percent of people prefer to play these games with a mouse and keyboard, but I'm so used to the controller, I didn't play on the PC more than an hour. If I can play 5 on PC with a controller I might pick it up on PC.

              I purchased Tropico4 and then never had time to play it (bought used). Game looked a bit repetitive. How's the storyline in it (or in the series in general)?

                Commenting only from playing 4. I really enjoyed the game. When I picked it up I really wanted Sim City 5, but because the poor reviews I ended up going with Tropico. The story line is very light-hearted and the game has a good sense of humor. I only played through about 1/2 the missions, but each give a unique challenge. I never found the game to be repetitive but it is a city builder, so I suppose it is repetitive by nature.

                If you like Sim/Management/Strategy games then you will like it, if not I would pass. I go through phases where I am addicted to Civ and this game had a similar phase for a couple months.

                  Does anyone else see the March 31st release date for PS4? Is this true?

                    That's all I see. However I don't think I'm paying 20.00 more for console than I can get for PC. So I'll wait for a drop probably

                      Weird that I never saw an announcement for that release date.

                        That date is probably a place holder. No where (That I've seen) on the game site, lists a release date.

                          I would love for that to be the release date though. Been waiting a while for it.

                            It was delayed AGAIN. First it was suppose to come out in September, then October, then November, then the beginning of February, now it says the end of March.

                              Better to keep getting delayed then released broken like every game in 2014.
