    New SeaLife center at Legoland Windsor

    Nice find there Matt :wink: But yes, the documents do show that the attraction will feature a dark ride system. One of the documents has a who load of information on it, such as noise levels, and the fact it will have 8 cars etc. It does look like it's going to be a unique attraction...

    Major Changes for Disney's California Adventure

    It truely is spectacular; something that only Disney could properly pull off. It must be a lot better in real person as it is hard to see the mist screens and projections in that video. The scale is just something amazing.

    Saw Alive: Thorpe Park Horror Maze for 2010

    In a recent press release by the park, they have stated some of the things that you can expect within the maze: I'm glad that they are going for some multi-sensory effects, which should create the desired atmosphere.

    Saw Alive: Thorpe Park Horror Maze for 2010

    No one every said they were getting rid of the Bose speakers, just replacing them with brand new Bose speakers. :wink: Apparently areas that had little/no audio, now have speakers placed ready for audio.

    New Thorpe Park MTDP

    We have to remember that it is only a guide to the council to outline what the park may due in due course. It's most likely that only half of those things that can be seen will appear at the park. Look at the previous MTDP, many things on it weren't built. Another thing to add, it's most likely...

    Saw Alive: Thorpe Park Horror Maze for 2010

    Didn't really think this news needed a new topic but 2010 brings something else: According to TPM, parts of Colossus' track have been removed including the drop and re-tracked to make the ride smoother. Also the ride has apparently been re-painted, so hopefully it will be the nice colours it...

    Saw Alive: Thorpe Park Horror Maze for 2010

    The theming is actually very good. It's better than Saw: The Ride's just looking at that, and it's probably not finished yet. It will be interesting to see the finished product.

    CoasterForce World Exclusive from CWoA

    I really enjoyed reading that; thanks Mark and all who went for bringing this to us. The future certainly does look bright for Chessington. Attention to detail is key in an immersive experience as seen by the likes of Disney, Universal etc. From music to rides to benches, it all needs to flow...

    Merlin buys Cypress Gardens, to be Legoland

    Just a thought.... As the Jungle Coaster is being removed from Legoland Windsor, could this mean that it will be moved to the new one in Florida? I doubt we will see it moved to any UK park, and the promotional advertisments at the press release showed one of these coasters advertised.
