It's okay if it actually runs. Constantly crashing at the Main Menu screen. I even upgraded to a new CPU and GPU after my old system was nearing it's EOL. 9800X3D + 9070XT and it still crashes at the load up screen. What a joke.

You can't compare a game that came out 4-5 years ago to a game released this year..that's pretty absurd.

Anyways, yes, the game is pretty basic in terms of control. It's a simulator based on simulating one thing, controlling the PATH train. There actually is a career mode, but it's not in the sense of career mode most people are used to. It's called 'Shift Duty' in this case. You can play any time-table of which I'd assume was the PATH schedule back in that day with three different types of cars. The camera angles are limited but, hey, it's a simulator, you're suppose to be driving a train, not go ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wanting to view the doors open from the outside, you're suppose to be in the cab; plain and simple.

I must admit though, the game is definitely not worth the $19.99 at this day in age. They do have other versions, not sure if released on Steam though, Vol 2 in Berlin and Vol 3 in London I believe. They also have a Vol 4 coming that would feature the (7) line in NYC.

By the way, I'm using Windows 8.1 Pro with no issues of crashing like other users are experiencing.

Plain and simple, if you want a pure simulator operating a train and just doing that, go for it. If you want to only view the trains from exterior views and have fun watching doors open from the outside, this train simulator may not be for you.

Just remember, this game came out in '09. Not '14.
