This game looks awesome. Will it be available in the United States anytime soon?

Thanks,

Rob

Also did you try the demo? If not, it can be downloaded off here or any of the major sites such as www.3dgamers.com

Ladywarrior: Thanks for pointing that thread out. I can wait a month, perhaps :)

Ropes: I will download the demo as soon as I get home. Don't want to lose my job over a game :)

BTW: There is a game, already out called 'Las Vegas Tycoon'. It's published by Simon & Schuster. That isn't the same game, right? If not, you may want to concider a name change....

Looking forward to playing the demo, and ultimately buying the game once it hits my shore.

Rob

Hi Rob,
Yes it will be available in the US but i think its more likely to be january now (the dates i mention are speculative)
i don't have any recent information at hand. The last i heard was Dec 15th specialist stores and January nationwide but the Dec 15th date i think is too tight now. As soon as i hear anything on this i'll post it.

As for the name, in the US and Germany it will be called
Vega$ Tycoon - everywhere else it is Vega$: Make It Big!

Yep the names are close to the simon&schuster; game, its not really a problem from what i've been told and its most definitely not the same game :) I think the screenshots speak for themselves.

hope that helps

regards

I recently bought and played Las Vegas Tycoon and I have to say, it was quite bad. Vega$ Make it Big has no worries about this other game. It was promptly returned and I have since bought and played the full version of Vega$ Make it Big and love it!

Great work guys....

Yeah, it was probably a cheap rip-off

WOW

just played the demo-- just what ive been looking for.

Tore my hair by the roots trying to find hoyle casino empire-- found out after purchase that its a little silly and waaay to easy.

Your game is just what I wanted!!

Just ordered mine from UK-- cant wait!

Kudos for taking such an active role in involving the players in product development/feedback and encouraging customization. This kind of attitude by a developer makes it obvious a game is a labor of love, something they are really proud of. This is gonna be huge!!

cant wait to contribute to the phenomena--first up, a copy of the 'tangiers' sign from scorsese's Casino!

Hi Black Gas, thanks for the kind comments.

Just out of interest, how did you come across the game/demo?
