I give you, Cyclone! GTA4 style! AKA: Screamer at "Firefly Island"

Brave Little Toaster scared my friend recently. Of course, psychedelics are to blame

Where are the pictures? Lol! I love you Jay

That's the thing, most GP ARE that stupid that they need these videos. Universal has them on all their rides with stupid looking characters. Does it make me hate the park or make me embarrassed to ride the ride? No. The world today, people think they're inclined to do anything they like as long as they payed to get into it. I goes "Hey, I paid to get in here! I should be able to do whatever I want!". That leads to trash everywhere, line cutters, and people trying to bring items or do something stupid on the rides. If it makes you embarrassed to ride coasters, maybe you should stop and pick a new hobby. Or as stated before, don't go to that park anymore.

Yes, lets tell people how to do something completely wrong. That sounds awesome...

I've always been fascinated with Tornadoes almost as much as Roller Coasters. I have tons of videos about them. I've seen a funnel cloud once while I was at a park, never touched down but was really scary seeing it right above us. I've been through many Hurricanes, back in '05 we got hit dead on by hurricane Charlie and the other two (Who's names escape me right now). One hit on my Birthday... that was fun But because of Hurricane Charlie we were out of power for 8 days and had to return to school which sucked because I had to take cold showers >.< But yes, that is one thing I wanna do in my lifetime, see a tornado.

Haha! I used to play TSO. Still have an account cause it's free now.

Used to. Over it now.

It is going to have a "Mummy-type experience" during the ride. The beginning of the ride will take you through the aquarium with stingrays swimming beneath you and on the sides. The ride will also launch through the aquarium tunnel out into the open for the ride itself. While traversing the track, there will be water elements (Think Maverick after the launch over the lagoon) including the splashdown like SheiKra and Griffon have.

Well, now that it's officially announced... The plans I've seen for the ride show it's a B&M flyer with a splash pool like SheiKra where the flamingos used to be at the entrance to the park. The name they were looking at was "Mantaray" and themed after a stingray. The queue aquarium will have stingrays swimming around you (Think "Sharks!") Also, I know it's hard to believe... but from the renderings it was a launched coaster :-\ ... I know B&M doesn't do launches, but maybe they're gonna be like Universal and do it themselves.

Well, according to a friend that does attraction lighting for Universal (Harry Potter and Simpsons) has said that there is a huge possibility of closing down the ride, but not for half a year. They have to overhaul the entire queue to replace all the theming (Including lights). JK Rowling has stated to Universal that the theming is not up to par. She also said the "candles" and "flame lit torches" inside the castle are not realistic enough either.

Bobsled coasters!? Flat rides!? WTF!? Also, the layout of the coaster... interlocking loops!? Wow, B&M had a lot of ideas that never took off.

BGE has TONS of other things to do around it within 10 miles. I mean, it is in Williamsburg. When I was there there were signs all over the place for different "attractions". I don't know exactly what because I didn't go to any of them but you can probably browse around the net and find some fun, interesting things to do. The park also has a lot more than coasters to it. The shows are nice, and the park is beautiful as well.

Love how the game progressed to this when it was originally just going to be an architecture/home design program.

Seriously... WTF?

I have all the expansion packs for both Sims 1 and 2. They're gonna have to show me some amazing stuff to get me to buy "The Sims 3". Right now, the screen shots make the game look like it has very few graphic advances. The only thing that I see making it "worthwhile" is you can place furniture diagonally. These are based off the screen shots off of IGN.com

So. I want to save an element in my coaster to put it into AHG. When I select all the segments of the coaster up to the MCBR, I go into "file", click "Save element" then I save it. I open a new coaster and try to put the element in. But, the element comes out flat and all the track looks like it had been straightened. Am I doing something wrong?

Zero-G rolls are my favorite element on any coaster. I've never ridden Scream! before, but Kraken's is my all time favorite variation of the element. On an Invert, Dueling Dragon's Ice or Talon's are my favorite.

My car bursts into flame all the time...

While looking around on the internet, I came across this. Just thought I'd share.

Wow, two new coasters opening in Orlando in 2009! This and Sea World's flying coaster are going to make me a happy Floridian. I'm just glad I live 15min from the park And who cares what Disney thinks... Disney is the root of all evil in my opinion.

Wow. Almost a year delay. Are you sure it isn't supposed to be May 23, 2008

I have a prince albert. Seriously.

I picked up Brawl at midnight... my b/fs roomie forgot to put the Wii out... my Wii is at home. I'm currently sitting at my boyfriend's apartment with Brawl just sitting there. Ugh... tonight. Lol
