Oh, and Alton Towers for having the best coaster selection and atmosphere etc.

For me its, PBB followed by Thorpe and then Towers.
If it wasnt for Stealth and Loggers Leap (call me sad) I would probably prefer towers.
PBB always has and always will be my number one place to visit.
There's certainly a preference for some people towards "riderideride" which makes them prefer PBB and Thorpe. You fall off one ride and right onto another. PBB wins out over Thorpe because it's unusual to have much of a queue between rides. So you can surf the adrenaline. It's certainly why I much preferred Blackpool to Alton when I was younger - permanent high from all the riding.
So it's a valid view if that's your thing

Thats pretty much it Phil, but the funny thing is outside of the UK, I really like Port Aventura even though thats more like Alton Towers than PB & Thorpe, but it comes down to me really enjoying the majority of rides at Port Aventura where as at towers I only like a few of the rides on offer.

Alton Towers purely for it's more diverse range of coasters Gotta hand it to em on the theming too! When you think Oblivion is a single drop, the whole psychological films in the queue line build up suspense the first time you ride!
Was quite impressed with Hex too! and although I was underwhelmed with the charlie and the chocolate factory boat ride, I thought the glass elevator section was quite quirky and although it pales in comparison to the detail at Disney parks I was still impressed by it for a UK attraction

I think Alton Towers is no doubts the best. I have a soft spot for Oakwood, even though it is not the best, I live near it. :--D

Thorpe Park is a theme park. It has themed areas and rides. Some of which have more themeing than Alton, who's major coasters are predominantly more stylized than themed.NASHER said:^
Is thorpe a "theme park" then
Themeing can reference a general mood or style, such as with Air or Oblivion, but it's usually about referencing a period or place. Thorpe does the latter.
Doesn't make Thorpe's themes better by any stretch, but it is a theme park and in the typical sense more so than Alton.
One thing I've noticed about American parks is that they are generally regarded as having no themeing, when in most cases they have more physical themeing than parks in the UK.

I personally prefer Thorpe to Alton (I have been to both) because of the tradition of excellent theming and varied experiences. Although Nemesis is far superior to Nemesis Inferno. Also I love all the rides at Thorpe (Rush, Samurai, Vortex...).
