  1. Fishy! I don't see how he ends up on his side that quickly unless he literally laid over people as the ride started. Doesn't seem to be much backing this up around the web and also says this as an update on TPR's video. UPDATE! The report of the man standing could be erroneous as it may be a copy/paste typo from another ride accident. Reports at the moment are very sketchy and few and far between. Since this happened in China, a lot of the information has not been out yet. If you see any additional news or information about the accident, please post the links in the comments section. Thank you!
  2. Am I the only one that likes the new logo??? I think it's much better than before. Actually looks Egyptian!!!!!
  3. I thought for a split second it was just an old photo. But can see Swarm in background. Yay! Glad it's working again. Let's hope it's still working by the summer

    Nemesis

    Shame we aren't likely to ever see the blood waterfall again. They aren't allowed to use the dye as it was supposedly against environmental policies and was apparently seeping into local water courses.
  5. Wow it really does look uneven. Anyone for Furious Baco 2?
  6. Fifth and seventh actually
  7. I loved the air theme, but loving the sound of this too, lets hope it plays loudly like the Smiler
  8. Personally I don't think the admission price system helps. A park like dreamland would get more custom having a token and wristband system as it did in the past.
  9. As irritating as this is it will be nice to hear it blasting out in x sector again! Was strange not hearing it my last two visits.
  10. Developers diary 3, focus on the modular piece by piece building system. Shows some great levels of detail. Much prefer the look of this to RCT World.

    Logger's Leap

    Reply to a post on FB asking how the loggers refurbishment is going: Hi Dan, we will not be able to provide ongoing updates on the status of Logger's Leap, however we can confirm that the ride will remain out of action for the 2016 and we hope for it to make a splash back in 2017 =] Sounds like they really still don't know at this stage whether it will be back or not what with the word "hope".
  12. I agree. I would say get in as many rides as you can during those peak dates as I would lay money on it being its last season.
  13. I tried playing that game hundreds of times and could only ever manage a top score of about 400,000 and so never able to get to top three. So annoying!
  14. It is expensive but still gets the crowds. gladiator which was the one £9 ride still had a large queue when I saw it on the two visits I had. (over four rows filled in the cattlepen area it had) Sadly they aren't going to lower it if people still pay it. The event had another successful year and supposedly pulled in 3 million visitors over the six weeks. http://eventindustrynews.co.uk/festivals-outdoor-event-news/hyde-park-winter-wonderland-enjoys-another-successful-year/

    Logger's Leap

    It was shut a lot on and off from around August time right up till the end of season. Very tempremental.
  16. Sadly almost all of the non enthusiast people I told said they were disappointed and wished it was a rollercoaster. Thats all the majority of people seem interested in these days.

  18. AT are in desperate need of some new flat rides. Its something I have always felt the park has lacked. Shame about ripsaw. Funny how Blade was supposed to be removed first but somehow seemed to live longer.

  22. Yes. Just passing on the news not out to look for a sarcastic comment. Also just pointing out its unusual for a park to be repainting a ride as they put themselves up for sale.
  23. Fantasy Island is officially up for sale. Surprised they are bothering to repaint Odyssey based on seeing this. http://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/Popular-Lincolnshire-theme-park-sale/story-28339697-detail/story.html
  24. Have to say the more time goes on the more I like this game. Looks to be better than RCT World in my opinion. Two development diary videos have been released. A LOT of detail seems to be going into the landscape and buildings from the stuff shown in the latest video.
  25. They do talk garbage majority of the time, but it could be a good thing them featuring the potential ride closures as many more people will contact the park saying they think it is disgusting, prompting the park to think twice IF they are planning on closing some or all of these rides in 2016. Alton do seem to be a park that listen, they have reverted altered opening times in the past and scrapped Blade's removal due to many complaints just to name a few.
