Game Dev Tycoon Vs Mad Games Tycoon Vs Game Dev Studio

[Aurumlamina]

For those of you who have played all of these, if I already have the first two, is there a purpose to picking this one up?

Mad Games Tycoon is my fav out of all of them, though the GDT had a nice update a while back. I see no reason to get this one as it don't bring anything new and refreshing. That's my opinion.

I think GDT is best

Game Dev Studi has a more RPG in deaph approach than GDT. But all games have their special flaws

Thanks for the responses. I appreciate it!

In my opinion, Game Dev Tycoon is the approach for the more casual player. Also in my opinion Mad Games Tycoon sucks. Game Dev Studio is my favorite with the features and I would definitely love a mobile version like GDT.

What features exactly does this game has that others don't? From the store page, the only thing I could figure out is that you fight to keep employees and stealling new ones from other studios. I'm also not sure how exclusives in this differ.

Never played Mad Games, but I have played through Game Dev Tycoon and I'd say Game Dev Studio is a legitimate step up in quality and variety over it. There's much more stuff you can do and it seems designed better overall, more employee interaction, more realistic events, reviews etc. Another good option is Software Inc, which is not specifically focused on games but is a very similar and excellent game otherwise.

City Game Studio is an excellent game. The developer is a bit strange, but he updates the game frequently.

MGT is probably my favorite, although I'm impressed with CGS.

This game has potential. I'm a bit put off that it's only features and not direction that controls the game, though. I think sliders that show what you're doing to the game is a must (etc, graphics, gameplay, story, etc).

I like both Game Dev Tycoon (GDT) and Mad Game Tycoon(MGT). Both games have things I would like to see and things i would like to see put in the other. In the end i will have to give it to MGT because of the option after release. I can change my prices, i can budget release older games. i can make and mmo ftp i can release a ftp.
The 2 things i want most of both games.
Pre-order games and consoles.... not just because out of stock
more then one system on the market at a time.

Game Dev Tycoon is one of the first of this genre.
I like it but after playing a lot of clones, it plays a bit... not really deeply.

Mad Game Tycoon is much complexer than GDT or GDS but in endgame it starts boring.
A large 2-team crew, that code 2 good MMO didn´t need code more other games.
It´s a bit of building-sim with it (create and decorate rooms, place structures to better efficiency and morale ...)

Game Dev Studio is a middle of GDT and MGT.
It has more deep in game-creating but more less in production.
No, not true. GDS outsource console development and production of games/consoles from you to an extern contractor. Like MGT, GDS have a connection to building-sim.

Mad Game Tycoon is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Game Dev Tycoon and Game Dev Studio only i recommanded to play

[Der_Scanner]

Really bad is GamersGoMakers.
Only the "Fanbase"-Mod (PGF) is really playable.

MGT is for this price still good
