    Stolen off TTF...What weird placement in the end... It's underneath the infamous drop and turn over Translyvania, and why did that section need another visual point?

    I mean on Xbox 360, as my laptop can't run it, and the PS3 has no games... :DAlso,

    This...That facial technology is amazing, and the game has really gripped me in the storyline... Excellent stuff...
  7. Each train has it's own unique soundtrack for both the launch sequence and ride...It's a lot more apparent of this at Paris to be fair, as each train has a specific light show for the pre-launch...
  8. Considering the franchise has already reached horse flogging levels, I kinda doubt it will be the same in 5 years time...I mean, it would be Saw 12! Urgh...
  9. Look at the topic subtitle to find out...

    Some rides ARE complex, no-one can deny that, but parks need to ensure that all rides are running at full capacity every day the park is open...Thorpe failed to do this on a constant basis...And ride staff are the LAST people to know what the actual problem is... All platformers know is that it's broken...

    Spoilered for swearing
  12. That's why I said it WAS expensive...
  13. I don't even know if the question means cards or cars... Seeing CARS would make more sense as the transfer track is down the bottom of the pyramid... But if it's cards, maybe someone dropped a few Merlin Top Trumps down there...

    Nice to see that it wasn't just left in the Rig Site as it was since the park's opening...Shame it's only come in after the 21st birthday though...

    Not saying you don't HAVE to have a serious relationship... Just don't get down about it... Cos it's better off waiting and be with someone who you want to be with and they want to be with you, then rush in and have no form of emotion or point to it...
  16. Ben 10 is the best coaster at Drayton...Excellent addition and actually a pretty decent (if exceptionally random) ride...
  17. Benin replied to Theme Park bloke's topic in The Real World
    ^Horrid people get horrid people to 'date'...And these are usually one night stands and have very little to no emotion or further stuff...Honestly, it's nothing to worry about... Life isn't all about relationships... Especially before hitting 20...
  18. ^And part of Thirteen's marketing campaign of the training camp in order to be the first one to ride it AND the general "THIS IS YOUR FAVOURITE RIDES IN ONE!!" didn't appeal to enthusiasts?Parks NEED to use the social media and this is working relatively well so far... Parks need to build up rep with fansites as well so that they get more things said about them by the enthusiast community, especially when you have a pre-existing image like Thorpe's...In short, stop being a downer and let people enjoy it...
  19. Benin replied to Ash's topic in General Discussion
    Wonder if they told the staff that before or at closing
  20. 6k for 14 nights IS expensive... (staying on cheapest Disney hotel with 14 day tickets for both Disney AND Flexticket)
  21. Benin replied to NickD's topic in UK Attractions
    LEGOLAND - BUNKERS WANTED!
  22. I think the most interesting thing said there is the apparent major attraction hitting Towers next year...Will Merlin keep their word?
  23. Btw, Blackpool charge £189 for an annual pass...Food for thought...
  24. Benin replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    I refuse to use the same term for the Croydon Tramlink and a singular carriage 'train'
  25. Is two appearances a day and intermittent characters elsewhere in the park enough though?I think each area of the park needs at least one, or maybe two constantly appearing characters... So we could have a pirate and his first mate by Buccaneer, banditos in Mexicana, pharoah in Kingdom and so on... This will obviously strain on the budget a LOT cos of the numerous staff needed for this but it would give Chessie a bigger edge on the other parks since we seem to lack costumed characters in general...Actually an idea has sprung to mind for a random little show in Mexicana involving a shoot-out up in the rafters of cantina and photo shop/etc... Fulfil my dreams Chessie!
