Thanks for the links. Overall the game appears to be quite good, and I like the look of being able to walk around the zoo like a visitor

 

yes it seems to be very good but it's only for xbox 1 and xbox 360

 

this is a mistake on Microsoft's part because zoo tycoon is not the kind of game that is suitable for playing on the Xbox.

 

You're right, PS3 would be so much better

 

News: Zoo Tycoon's full list of animals revealed ahead of its Xbox One launch - Xbox 360 - The Official Magazine
List of animals revealed.
The only good thing is that we'll have snakesss.
The bad thing is TONS of subspecies.
And this will be the first giant-panda-less zoo simulation game ever.

 

Surprised no gorillas!

I am not a gamer but could be convinced if they had gorillas.

 

I think all the subspecies make this a bit of a joke to be honest, especially all the giraffes and chimpanzees. I know people on here may be into all their subspecies but I think the average person who would buy this game would want to have a gorilla instead of 5 different types of chimp, or a zebra instead of 9 different giraffes.

If this is a genuine list, then I'm a little disappointed and has put me off buying it, for now at least.

 

Most of subspecies are actually reskins.
Fotrunately, elephants and rhinos are completely represented!!!

 

It actually seems like quite a good game. I would have liked a better spread of animals, but most of the bonus/repetitive taxa are only available on xbox one anyway. The controls are easy to get used to, but there's a lot less flexibility in design of the zoo or enclosures this time round. I guess the first person parts appeal mostly to younger players, but they seem ok for the time being and they're a nice touch with the xbox's kinect.
Better than my low expectations - so I'm glad this still feels like a reincarnation of one of my favourite games.

 

I have it and it is great,but I am hoping for DLC.

 

I've seen the game, and the graphics look AMAZING. however, I'm starting to think that there's hardly any strategy left anymore. I mean, the exhibits are pre-built, this game feels more like an RPG than a sandbox game. I miss the old Zoo Tycoon where you could design your own exhibits. Plus, if you are playing it at a casual level, why would you want TONS of sub-species? If Microsoft really wants to make a professional game, they should put it on PC, have the sub-species, add customisable exhibits back, add a few more animals and it should work out pretty well.
