Oooooo... Glad to hear you are enjoying Red Steel 2... My itchy Wii game buying finger is on the trigger with getting this one... but I'm trying to hold off until my Birthday in 2 weeks (I'm hinting to my partner that I'm interested in the game, so maybe he'll get it for me... and if not, I'll just have to leave him... no no... kidding... I'll then pick it up with my rainy day Wii game funds... and yeah, I really do have one of those...)

Thank you Thank you Thank you for visiting Dinosaur World. EVERY time I'm on my way to BGT, I always comment on visiting Dinosaur World, but just never seem to... My partner works in Jurassic Park (Discovery Center) at IOA and he and his team were planning an, out of the way, team building trip to Dino World... I'll be sure to show him this... Thanks again. Great work... Keep on Oddventuring...

I'd have to strongly agree with Hollywood Rip Ride Rock-it... its not a terrible ride... just seriously over hyped...
-
Currently playing "Fragile Dreams ~Farewell Ruins of the Moon~" on Wii... amazing ambiance and story... sloppy combat controls and camera... but overall I'm loving it. I believe I'm nearing the end of the game, which the in game time has me clocked at 14 hours so far. Great little hidden gem of a game.
Also playing "Endless Ocean:Blue World" on Wii... but not nearly as much as I'd like to be playing.
Dabbling in playing "Tatsunoko vs Capcom Ultimate All Stars"... Not generally a fighting game fan, but this one is seriously over the top fun. And great fun to watch too...
And a little bit of Data East Arcade Classics for some relatively lesser known arcade goodness, from time to time...

Very nice pictures and Great work. I didn't know this park exsisted until now... looks like a nice little place... I love the "Parachute Jump" themed kiddie drop tower. Very fun. If you have a chance to get back there and have time, try and grab some photos of that carousel.. I'm sure its beautiful... so again, job well done. Thanks

I, too, was wondering that about Tiger... I was really disappointed when I returned to BGT after the Tiger re-track and they were still running the PTC trains... My hopes of MF trains were pretty much shattered... the ride did run seemingly a bit smoother (but it was a REALLY cold day, which probably helped...) but still wished it was a Millenium Flyer... And now with the testing of the MF train on the Lion side, if all goes (fingers crossed tightly) well, will Tiger infact have to shut down all over again?... I'm all for it, but seems a bit backwards to me... either way, I'm drooling over the possibility...

There seems to always be a lot of hate for Gwazi... and sure, I can see where some of it comes from... but I've always been a defender of it for some odd reason... Maybe its because I think it is such a pretty coaster... sure she has her cranky days (REALLY cranky where it kicks the living crap out of you), but other days I just think she is just amazingly playful and fun... for me, I've always defended this coaster, despite the sometimes seemingly "two minute car crash" similator... but when it is good, I truly feel it is amazing...
Now over the past few years, I've always wondered with high hopes if Gwazi would EVER receive the MF trains... and a few months ago when Tiger was closed, I prayed that it was for a re-track (which it looked like they WERE doing...) Fast Forward a couple of months and Lion is closed for the same treatment... but much to my disappointment, Tiger is running with the same ole PTC trains... albeit running a bit better, but not as smooth as I was hoping... but now with THIS news, my hopes may still come true... I raise my Amber Boch in high hopes that BGT strongly considers arranging for their own sets of MF trains... Gwazi deserves it... BGT fans deserve it... give this coaster the love it truly needs...
Oh... on a complete side note... my partner and I love this coaster so much that we named one of our cats after it... that and its just fun to yell "GWAZI" when he mis-behaves... which seems to be A LOT!!!

You know, 11 1/2 years of living in Central Florida and I've never visited the Strawberry Festival... This upcoming Wednesday (3/10 I believe) will be my first visit... Nice TR and preview of what to expect...
-
Tatsunoko Vs Capcom Ultimate All Stars (Wii)... I'm not even that big a "Fighting" game fan, but WOW... this game is insane... Very fun...
Silent Hill:Shattered Memories (Wii)... Spooky and awesome...
Klonoa (Wii-make)... Makes me shed a tear each and every time I finish it...
Tales of Symphonia:Dawn of the New World (Wii)... Chipping away at it ever since I got it nearly a year and a half ago...
-
STILL playing New Super Mario Bros Wii (finished it twice and now playing for a 3rd time... essential game for ALL Wii owners...) Fantastic game...
Muramasa:The Demon Blade (Wii) - Great 2D Action/Adventure RPGish game... a bit repetitive, but a completely refreshing change of pace from most Wii titles... not to mention one of the most beautiful titles I've seen this generation (across all 3 consoles) period... Just finished one of the two quests... Just started the second one this afternoon...
Planing on getting myself Silent Hill Shattered Memories for a "selfish" Christmas gift... (from me, to me...) Its getting mostly great reviews... looking forward to being disturbed all over again...
-
And now the original NES cult hit is downloadable in the US on Wii's Virtual Console... AWESOME!!!... Only tinkered with it before having to go to sleep for work later... Good to have the original along side the wonderful Wii title...
-
While I'm sure there are some roller coasters I can come up with, the ride which quickly comes to mind for me is NOT a coaster... It's Rhino Rally at Busch Gardens Tampa. While the first time I loved it... subsequent rides just didn't do it for me...
-
Seriously "DrJazz", I couldn't agree with you more... I too am playing New Super Mario Bros Wii... and this IS the game we've all been waiting for since Super Mario World!! Tough game... but SO much fun so far... have not tried multiplayer yet... I'm sure its a chaotic mess of fun...
Almost done re-playing "No More Heroes" in anticipation of the new one being released in January I believe...
I'm also still chipping away at A Boy and His Blob... On the 3rd world so far...
-
I'm really curious (and surprised to be honest) to see just what they are planning to expand off from this particular tower. There doesn't seem to be all too much room to any side of this attraction to fit another one... unless they expand into the "backstage" area off to the backside of the tower... Any expansion to the park is welcome and I'm excited to see what will come of it.

And one more amazing review for good measure... This is one of the best ones I've read yet!!! It's from the NintendoLife website...
http://wii.nintendolife.com/reviews/2009/10/a_boy_and_his_blob_wii
If there were any doubters, then let that change your mind. A Boy and His Blob "WiiMake" is old school goodness with a new coat of absolutely fresh paint... I've convinced a couple of co-workers to make the purchase too. And they are also loving it!
I'm about 1/2 through the 2nd world. Having trouble finding some of those pesky treasure chests. I haven't yet resorted to any FAQs or walk-throughs. And don't plan on it until absolutely necessary.
Great job and congratulations on this amazing title Robb.

Simply beautiful... seriously... my favorites are the Lochness pictures... the BBW ones make me sad on one hand... and smile with great memories on the other... Thanks for posting the wonderful pictures...
-
I used to spend such a long time designing and redesigning those (very limiting) coasters at Communicore (sp?)... AND trying to get that damn mouse through the maze using the telephone (and in multiple languages!!!) Stupid thing never really understood me... Oh how I miss Communicore... Thanks for the pictues...

Seriously cannot wait to play this. Grabbing it Wednesday morning on my way home from work (along with a 6 pack of Amber Bock)... "BLOB"... (gives hug to Blob...)
And here is an incredible review from gametrailers.com... 8.5=AWESOME!

(edited AGAIN!!)
Okay... picked the game up this morning (10/14) on my way home from work and played it for an hour... and it simply rocks so far... can't wait to play a little later on again after visiting Typhoon Lagoon (for a beer, perhaps two) and a quick nap in the lazy river... AWESOME (and beautiful) GAME!!! BUY IT!!
-
Oooooo... If that is the Buffalo Wild Wings in LBV, I've NEVER had good service there... not even remotely decent service... I'm NOT a fan of that location at all... And this further seems to confirm my observation... Perhaps I've just hit it on really bad nights... All three nights I've tried it... No more for me thanks...

Is it too late to join in on the shenanigans? In the Davenport area and would love to possibly meet up...
-
8.5 from Nintendo Power... That's AWESOME!!! One week to go... Can't wait to return and explore Blobolonia all over again...
-
Epcot on Wed 10/7 for Food+Wine plus "Better Than Ezra"... Should be a good time!... Food, Wine, Friends, Music... Fun for everybody!!!!
-
Just two more weeks... I can't wait to hug blob!...

I don't know... "Looping Starship" at Six Flags Great Adventure (and other similar looping boat rides) have complete crotch crushing restraints... but, I guess its better than falling out, no?!... Actually, I haven't ridden one of those in 15+ years, so I'm only talking from my very past experience... I do remember them to be tight in that area though!!

Intamin... B&M... honestly doesn't matter to me really... I'm just really excited about a possible new rollercoaster overall at BGT... Hope its not an April Fools Joke (keeps fingers crossed...)
