Zynga is all hyped up on the launch of CoasterVille, its latest addition to the Facebook gaming landscape. It's pretty much what you expect from a Zynga game: building up a "Ville," populating it with visitors and adding your own personal touches. Presumably it asks you to bug your friends a lot, too.

But CoasterVille comes with some special features that should endear it to fans of its source material, RollerCoaster Tycoon. The main thing is that there's reportedly a lot more customization in CoasterVille—you can build custom rides, for example, just like in the old days. You can also choose among various aesthetic options and themes for your park.

CoasterVille is live now on Facebook. If you try it out let us know—how does it stack up to the rest of Zynga's games? More importantly, how does it stack up to RollerCoaster Tycoon?
