Carnage

Not playing anything right now. But Gears of War comes out in the next few days, and I expect that to be the game I'll be playing.

Happy birthday. Have a beer on me.

Kids ARE idiots. That being said I agree that video games do not affect kids in the way the media would want you to believe. You just gotta let kids be kids, and let them be idiots. So what if the dumbest one's will just kill themselves off, it's survival of the fittest.

I got alot of air on the first drop. Actually after everyone trumping up the 3rd drop I remember getting nearly torn out of the train on the first drop. I remember being so scared because if the first drop was that insane, what was this truly crazy one going to be like.

I think you used the best example.

^ Too many things to point out.

I prefer the Magic Eight Ball method. Using this method I could end up with Snails as my #1 coaster.

Funny how Macs are so elite and yet they have problems performing basic text operations.

lol no Mean Streak, Minebuster, and Ghoster Coaster are all FAR down my list. In fact Mean Streak and Minebuster narrowly made it out of my list of rides that I put behind the kiddy coasters. (Beast, SoB, Predator). My list starts off: 1-Voyage 2-Thunderhead 3-Hades 4-Balder Though it all makes sense once you see my sensation order: Out of Control Feeling/Directional Change,s_,y,y,1 Lateral Forces___________________________,__,y,y,2 Sensation of Speed_______________________,__,y,y,3 Abrupt Airtime___________________________,__,y,y,4 Positive G's/Loops_______________________,__,y,y,5 Floating Airtime_________________________,__,y,y,6

^ I've got Balder at #4.

They can say anything, but magazines don't always do that. They sometimes have to say nice things so that companies don't get mad at them. Look at Driv3r. They were accused of buying off magazines after the game was praised during development. Then it came out and turned out to be a giant pile of crap.

Yeah, it's definetly a one trick pony. Though that one moment is one of the biggest WTF moments I've ever had.

Got my vote in, ranked 71 rides. I basically group and sort until I'm happy with the order. I group together my top rides, middle tier rides, kiddy coasters, and rides that I'd like see burned to the ground(Beast, Son of Beast,etc). Then just constantly shuffle until I'm happy.

Cyclops at Mt. Olympus. Everyone told me how insane the third drop was, I just really underestimated how insane it was. I should have figured an 18 age limit on the back car was there for a reason.

I'm a huge halo fan. I'm just not about to rush out and blow money on a pre-order which is useless. If I need to pre-order I'll do it closer to the date. Why tie up your money a year in advance? And take any new features with a grain of salt. The game still has a year in developement, and alot can change. Quite possibly half those features you listed won't be in the game.

Sony is famous for overhyping the graphic capabilities of their system. Their hype machine crushed Dreamcast, which was actually a more powerful system. Killzone2 definetly looks really good. Just take anything Sony says with a grain of salt.

Pre-ordering games is not a requirement like pre-ordering new systems. Launch day I'm sure you'll have no problem walking into a store and buying one.

I loved the shot of Dragster with the water spraying off. You must have one hell of a trigger finger.

Only if you don't get hit. If you get hit I'm sure it'd be a very painful death.

Good to know Canada's crappiest was on tap. I wouldn't drink Blue if it was given to me.

I think I'm starting to somewhat understand what you're talking about. Just what baffles me is how many people are refering to "pumping" as this super obvious term. Do you just mean a hill that changes the rate at which it changes direction? Is this pumping? Or am I still not getting what this is?

Interesting concept. If it happens it could really help the Michigan economy. I'm all for another major theme park within driving distance of me. Even if it's in Michigan.

Well it is possible to break the blood clot if you over exert yourself shortly afterwards. If you manage to do that you'll get a massive bruise like the length of your arm. I don't give blood nearly enough. Especially considering that my mother works for Canadian Blood Services.

Pitty vote for Barry.

^ Why do you need to go in the rain? You just descrived the experience I've had on nearly all top spins. Well minus the crappy one's like at Dorney that don't even flip.
