    YAY Merlin!

    Thorpe have extended the closing time of the park till 8pm for Hyperias opening and the following day. Means everyone going those days may be able to squeeze in one more ride on something else after queuing all day for Hyperia 🤣

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    How long are we expecting before the splashdown stops working and doesn't get fixed for ages? Looks like there's still a lot of work to be completed for the queue-line and surrounding area. Will be nice to see what the ride looks like in a couple years once the foliage has had chance to grow a bit.

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    Good luck, hope it all goes smoothly for you. Will be interesting to hear what the queue length gets to and how speedy the ops are. Definitely looks like a trip back to Europa is in order. When I last went there was no Blue Fire or Wodan so plenty of new things to try.

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    To be honest, I'm surprised Amity Beach has lasted as long as it has. It's a decent area of land that's rarely open and is always annoying to navigate around.

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    Unpopular opinion. But people need to take off their nostalgia goggles and get over Splash Mountain. What they've done with Tiana's Bayou Adventure that we've seen so far actually looks incredible and it's sad that it doesn't seem to be getting the appreciation it deserves because people are too...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Been out the loop (pun intended) with coaster stuff for years so probably about to ask a dumb question. Why didn't Hyperia have any envelope reach testing is it something that's just decided by individual manufacturers/parks? I know Hyperia is mostly out in the open but there is a couple of...

    Walt Disney Studios Park further developments

    I love the concept but not keen on the name. I can see what they're aiming for but believe it'll create confusion with guests as it's very generic and feels too close to other parks/lands that Disney already own. The Studios park has needed attention for years and right now it's just a maze of...

    Last Cred Review

    Minifigure Speedway - Legoland Windsor: Got on this on opening day towards the end of the day once the queue had died down. Great coaster for the park and a low height restriction meaning younger riders can enjoy it. It's positioned well on the hill so it appears much higher than it is, giving...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    First post on here in 10 years (it's changed a bit 🤣). Watched the first test live earlier and have to say for a first run it actually ran a lot faster than I was expecting when compared to other test runs I've seen. Super hyped to finally get to ride it.

    The Games we play...

    Sony's help team are useless. Had £60 added to my PSN wallet the other day without my permission so I changed my password and emailed them to ask if it can be moved back into my bank account as it was unauthorized. They emailed back saying they can't help by email and to call their number. As...

    The Games we play...

    Finally got round to purchasing a PS Vita. Play.com did a good deal today where you got the 3G+Wifi version of the console, a 16GB memory card and 10 games for £139. :) Means I can finally play all those free games I downloaded on PS+ ready for when I got it. :p

    Hobs Pit Review

    I was lucky to be able to attend the VIP event for Pleasurewood Hills new ride Hobs Pit. Having never visited the park before I'd only heard from others what to expect and opinions ranged from the place being a dump to people having fond memories of visiting when growing up. Upon arriving at the...

    New AR Game for Thorpe Park

    It is official. But they've done a comp where you have to get as many clicks on your link as you can. But it's all legit and Thorpe have posted it on their FB page as well. :)

    New AR Game for Thorpe Park

    If you went to Thorpe Park last year, you’ll know all about The Swarm. For 2013, it’s back with a vengeance… This video has just been released to launch an AR game for the park that follows the story of one of last year’s survivors. “Adam has just escaped from 332 days of captivity. While he...

    Alton Towers | The Smiler | Gerstlauer Infinity

    Re: Alton Towers | The Smiler | Unknown Gerstlauer World's 1 The reason why no one ever wins on the spin to win is that there's only 31 total prizes out of everyone who's got the app and is playing it. So a very very very very small chance of actually winning something. A con that it makes it...
