Actually, ANY coaster simulator sucks & nothing beats the Real McCoy!
There are a few fully enclosed simulators like the CP one. Plus there's the big 'flight' simulators like the one in RCT. 'Rides' I've been on are Astro Canyon CGI Rollercoaster, has anyone seen it? I have it on tape from when it was the opening segment to a MAD TV type show.
Real coasters are; Magnum XL-200 & Mean Streak, can't remember others. Hmmm, looks like this sim. is by the same company.
I've changed my tune. IMO, they ain't worth the $17,995. I would use the $$$ to ride EVERY COASTER IN THE WORLD!!!
Has anyone played G-Lock Air Battle on the SEGA R360 Servomachine Twin Axis Platform? You get in a circle in-line with the seat, put on lap belt, then OTSR & finally buckle that on both sides. A good thing too, as the platform flips you head-over-heels both ways & flips sideways as well i.e. it pitches & rolls, but has no yaw.
I would buy that! :) Once rode it three times in a go. Would love unlimited rides as its US$3 per ride :(
What about the Circitron? It's a portable life-sized gyroscope. Your feet are strapped down & you stand in a padded ring & grab the handles above if you want. Then just fling your body in all three axes. Astronauts use them to practice moving in zero gravity.
