The "Rides On Sale" Thread
Ace Of Spades replied to MayTheGForceBeWithYou's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I could buy a Scrambler for less than my house was worth. WANT. -
I'm -TiVo-, always ready to play anyone!

Redline Park [RCT2]
Ace Of Spades replied to QueerRudie's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
This park is seriously one of the coolest ones I've seen in a while, strangely enough. I love more simplistic, non-CS parks, and this is right up my personal alley of awesome! That, and the names slay me. -
Open Paint, close eyes, draw cat, post here.

Well, I completed it tonight, I agree with ^^, it was fantastic for what it was amid some frustrating bits (all due to the fact that I'm a terrible runner ) The part where *SPOILER*Merc Dies nearly had me choked up*\SPOILER*, something I haven't felt for quite a while in a video game. Now onto HAWX2!

I've had them before, and they're very, very surreal experiences...especially considering that the location I'm at in said dreams only ever happens to be King's Island or King's Dominion...despite the fact that I've never been to either.

Unanswered/Dumb Question-Dumb Answer game
Ace Of Spades replied to Angry_Gumball's topic in Random, Random, Random
Grow a chocolate Mohawk. How can you bounce a snowball? -
Just got Mirror's Edge in from Gamefly the other day, and, well, damn. I never thought a game could be as simultaneously fun and hair-pullingly frustrating at the same time as Portal, but I believe this is as close as I'm gonna get. Of course, I need to keep plowing through it, I'm only on Chapter 5 and I need to return it to get HAWX 2.

May I just voice my opinion here and say that this whole "Backwards Superman" sounds quite stupid? I mean, maybe I'm just old fashioned here, but I would've seen no problem with a nice new launch system, some new effects, and a nice little relaunch pizazz. This sounds like whiplash city, especially considering how fast Superman takes off out of the Fortress of Solitude. Seriously, I think some of you might be underestimating its launch here. If this is what's happening to the ride, I doubt I'd ever ride it again (or at least the reversed side).
-
^^That song is so amazing. Helps me to forget that I'm about to have my knee's shattered. As for Senor Superman, I don't see why people think launching this backwards is such a great idea. You would get some minor whiplash both launching and braking at minimum, and it surely wouldn't help the already minimal airtime the ride has. Now, if anything (pipe dream here), I'd like to see it go floorless or something to that affect. Strip away that sense of security, and now you've got a much more frightening ride. Of course, when that happens, hell will freeze, pigs will fly, and CGA will get a new coaster.

What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
Ace Of Spades replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Tatsu at Six Flags Magic Mountain. I got three rides on it, my best daily count on the thing ever! -

Hi there everyone! I've been a supreme lurker for several years, but due to a recent...er..."discrepancy" (see my signature), I've decided that I'm going to call TPR home for good.

PHOTO TR: Six flags america
Ace Of Spades replied to thrillrider's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
This park has always been so strange to me, I mean, I know this isn't how it really was, but it's like they tried themeing it and just gave up the farther back they went, until Bat-less Wing. It reminds me of my past RCT efforts. Anywho, great TR! Nice to see so many angles of SFA! -
^Presumably, the park will not continue to operate under the Six Flags name or franchise, much like Darien Lake or Elitch Gardens. Thus, employees won't be cycled out, at least not to there. Hopefully this might mean some long overdue capital for the park now that it's free of corporate (after working through the obvious expenses of getting it up and operating, and rebuilding its image as, well, open.)

Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm in pretty good shape considering, and I've always been okay with trading off smoothness for intensity, so I'll give the back car a try...once. Oh, and to anyone showing up at Fabulous Fords Forever on Sunday, make sure to stop by my brother's 2005 Black Mustang Convertible and say hi! I'll be around from time to time!
-
Great to hear that Xcel is almost ready to go again! I may miss it by a couple days (going Sunday in conjunction with the Fabulous Fords show across the way), but I wish the rest of you all the best of times riding it again! Oh, quick question: Does anyone know if Ghostrider has any "good seats" like Viper at SFMM? Or is the entire ride rough now? It's just that I haven't been back to the Farm since 2007, and it was pretty terrible back then.

Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
Ace Of Spades replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Good point, and I noticed that too. The best answer I could think of would be that they needed those cars for support too. I'm not really sure, to be honest.
