My ultimate feat was slipping and falling down on my home mat... Yeah that was a hell of a day. Seriously though I love the game but I can barely do half the standard songs...

WaterParks 2005 tonight on Travel Channel
kenshinmac replied to kenshinmac's topic in Random, Random, Random
I was seriously dissapointed. I mean they spent ages with some of the tiny parks and hit almost every ride in the park then they get to the big ones and it is like 2 rides and then next park... I mean WTF!!! They showed the least interesting rides at Hyland Hills Water World here in CO. Sure they are fast but the park wouldn't be the same without the Voyage to the Center of the Earth and Lost River of the Pharohs. They also didn't comment on the fact that it has a gondola ride between sections of the park. Didn't talk about rides similar to ones that they spent several minutes on at other parks. They completely ignored the wave pool which is one of my favorite things there... If only it wasn't a wave every 5 minutes or so. Still when the wave sweeps you out to the edges of the pool it is pretty damn sweet. Sorry that was a long rant... I love that park though. -
NEWS: Launched Like A Rocket - Powder Keg
kenshinmac replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Oh man... I can't wait for pictures and hopefully some POV... Enjoy it... -
Coasters will sway plenty and unless they are built right over a fault nothing terrible will happen. Of course if a park did build over an unknown fault that could be bad as the track could possibly rip apart. Of course the chance of that happening are about as good as you winning the lottery twice... In other words it could potentially happen but a lot would have to go wrong in a big way. I mean a coaster is gonna hold up when other things are collapsing because it is built to endure forces.

Hmm makes sense... I kinda wish I knew what happened to Shiny... I mean honestly they really have been hit and miss recently. I miss the days when they made so many great games in a row. I also wish they would make a new Sacrifice but they almost never make sequels. Who did Virgin become anyway?

There really will be pyro on the ride... I'm so glad about that... I mean seriously how could you have a ride called the Powder Keg without pyro... I might have to head out there just to experience the blast -

None of them are that thrilling but they are fun to watch. -
Man I remember the Loma Prieta Earthquake... I was like 8 at the time and I remember we were outside the local K-mart and the ground just started moving and we could hear the shelves and stuff inside the store collapsing and people screaming... I lived in SanJose near Cupertino at the time... Funny the things you remember isn't it.

Ok I know this is a little late but in 50 min the Travel Channel has Waterparks 2005. Could be fun.

I beat Lion King in a rental... Hmm that was a good weekend though. Aladdin for the Genny was really the only one I really liked. Wasn't that Shiny though? Never played that many Disney games...

Rides that will never happen
kenshinmac replied to zaneymon's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would love to see a monorail coaster... with inversions that is... I mean it would be kinda cool to have an extremely narrow track running under you. I honestly think you could do a ride with normal coaster on top and inverted on the bottom. I mean there was that company that was making a coaster with a train on the left side and one on the right. I don't think it went anywhere though... I want to see another new crazy idea. Flying coasters were cool but how about a street lugeing coaster? I mean you could make it into a crazy wild mouse with supports flying past you to make it seem faster. -
I swear reality tv needs to die a horrible death... I mean every single show is almost exactly the same it really is just terrible to watch. I guess honestly if it was restricted to one channel I wouldn't have a problem with it. But honestly reality tv has just taken over everything. Yes I don't watch any reality tv. I watch things like Mythbusters, Junkyard Wars, BBC sitcoms, M*A*S*H, and the like... Well maybe I watch a little reality tv... Faking It UK is pretty good most of the time the US version on TLC is mostly just terrible but well TLC hasn't made anything good for a year or so now. I miss the days of good scripted shows... It was the mega game shows that started us on this slippery slope. Eventually people will realize that reality tv is the same thing over and over and then ratings will drop. I can't wait for that day.

Um you might want to check your year... If you are researching for 2004 it might be a little late.

Mac Coaster Games
kenshinmac replied to GalacticHero's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Real I said January... GT4 only came out a few weeks ago and definitely didn't affect January numbers. PGR has nothing to do with reality really. I mean it started with Metropolis Street Racer for Dreamcast (which I absolutely love but suck horribly at) which was all about style and quality driving while using movie type physics. Also consider that overall the Cube is actually in second place albeit not a strong second but the sales in Japan of the X-box are so abysmal it basically offsets any ground that the X-box has over the GC in any other territory. Also saying that the X-box is even remotely comparable to the PSOne at this point is just silly. PSOne caught on almost immediately it outsold the Saturn from day one and the N64 never came close. The X-box isn't even close to comparable to that. MS really made some horrible decisions and some decent ones when making the X-box. I mean what were they thinking just pulling components from manufacturers. Everyone wants a profit and that has really hurt them paying nVidia and Intel for their components instead of making their own. I will say that I am a fan of japanese games and that is why I don't have an X-box. Plain and simple the games I tend to prefer just don't exist in high numbers on the X-box. Others like the type of games on the X-box so it is a better fit for them. Honestly if the box drops to $100 this E3 like it is rumored I will pick one up but it will never be my primary system. -
Wait so Robb are you in it? I never learned half those things...

Yay for Six Flags over Georgia!
kenshinmac replied to Homey G.'s topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Seriously how did I not see that... I was in that area of the park... I just looked at the map... I walked right around it I didn't even realize there was more of the park beyond the boomerang somehow. -
lol that is pretty crazy... I never noticed that... I doubt it but that is kinda funny if it is just a coincidence. If it isn't just a coincidence I want to know the story...
