  1. That is quite simply, parabolic perfection.God bless you B&M!
  2. Booking my trip to Poland for 2014...I can see the designers now, "Which parks shall we rip off for this one?""ALL OF THEM!"
  3. Is a northerner no matter what he says...
  4. Make it substantial. The Saw ones don't have much surrounding the actual video portion.Providing not only backstory, but a mixture of off and on ride footage could work in a way. But make sure there's B&M roar involved. Even if it's fake.
  5. That curve after the Zero-G.Belissimo!
  6. I must say I agree with James, this year seemed... So different from last year... Although Hocus Pocus was as good as always... I guess the lack of new experiences that seemed to pop up every visit for me last year not happening this year (and well as the general excitement/enjoyment) just didn't happen...Maybe next year eh?
  7. Same rules for Fright Nights. Unless you have a Premium one obviously (I would hope, if they charge a fiver for them, out of order).
  8. Does Stealth's lift work (if it has one)?
  9. Depends how they do it. Raptor the exit was up some stairs on both sides and in the middle (as well as a bottleneck mind, poorly laid out shop with video footage). It's kind of like a double station situation with two separate exits, so it really does depend on how they do it. If like Raptor, you'll probs have to go onto Fast-Track or maybe just talk to a member of staff at the exit.Either way, there will probably be stairs regardless.Depends if they decide to go for something like Air really. Sure someone who's studied the plans can work it out.

    Video Games.

    So erm. For SOME reason unbeknownst to myself, one of my friends gave me a game as a gift through Steam.What game you ask? Well it's Amnesia - The Dark Descent. I'm just glad I'm NOT home alone this weekend anymore then. Otherwise it would have ended REALLY badly.
  11. Wild Eagle nearly completed. Whoever bet on that finishing before Swarm I think will win now
  12. This is why I ignore comments on such pages on Facebook and Youtube. Some people's comments make me want to gouge my own eyes out.
  13. And now back to why this is gonna be amazing... A new picture from the Developer Diary:

    NASA/Russia/Everyone who has a space program might have something to say about that.Why no go the whole hog and say that we're flying through space on the back of 4 elephants who themselves sit on top of a giant turtle?Just as reasonable.Plus we don't have gravity. Apparently. I'm all for people having beliefs but sometimes people just need to realise how thick they are sounding, especially against a long wall of evidence that can be produced against this.
  15. You mean the ones on the first drop?Those were added on after the ride opened; I think they are magnetic even though each train seems to brake differently. They certainly look like magnets, can kinda of see them in this picture.http://www.flickr.com/photos/bluestripeleader/4718477790/#/photos/bluestripeleader/4718477790/lightbox/Surprisingly a hard thing to get pictures of that drop.
  16. Dunno why it's pathetic, it's just most people think it's a diabolical ride because of the roughness and the numerous headaches some have received coming off it. Just opinion based off experiences. If that's pathetic, then what's the point in living?EDIT - Who wants to see what is possibly one of the WORST coaster concepts in the world? That apparently S&S are involved with? Just... URGH... It looks horribly designed, stupid throughput, mechanically over-the-top and just generally vile...
  17. No-one's positive about trims ;)And B&M trims can just be as ride killing as some of Intamin's, and some of Intamin's can be just as erm... not as working as B&Ms ones (iSpeed being a good example here, didn't affect the ride at all, on the other side, Silver Star a few years back was quite frankly terrible because of the trim being on so high).Probably beause of the way in which Intamin use magnetic fins over the more mechanical ones that B&M use, but it's all dependent on how much they effect the ride, as of course each ride is different.At least this one can be turned down (or up if need be), magnetic ones can't, which is a main issue for rides like Thirteen.Blab over, the ride area looks so small and compact. Hopefully means a good atmosphere for non-riders and riders alike. Merlin are indeed learning well and are definitely seeming to go back to those early 90s Tussauds days for ride inspiration.
  18. Did you not see the complaints about the fake turret and the position of the tank?
  19. Daleks are the most terrifying creature known to man (and Timelord).
  20. I might be going to hell, but sod it, that's some bloody funny stuff right there...Continuing my CATS ARE EPIC WIN theme...

    I was pointed to this as well on Tuesday. Needless to say, it's discovery needs to be shared. SWEDISH STYLE!
  22. It's the SWARM I tell you!
