Ten bucks it's not a roller coaster, but rather, a dark ride with multiple ride experiences. AKA Spiderman, with one point where you spin and spew in a cave with stalactites, stalagmites, and alternating cold and warm temperatures.

PKI will NOT disappoint.

Have you people ever heard of a telephone. Call someone at home and tell the news so that they can post it to the web.

What ever it is, it's going to be big if they're going through all this crap to tell people.

Why not? Sure, this is CoasterBuzz, but that doesn't mean coasters are the only thing to do at amusement parks. The most fun I had during CoasterCon was 4 rapid rerides on Knoebel's bumpercars with a vicious pumped up group...

Yeah it's like on national tv and everything and there have been tons of comercials leading up to it then they make the announcement by interupting the final play in the SuperBowl that could win the game and say, "We interupt this broadcast of the SuperBowl to bring you the exciting King's Island announcement for their new attraction in 2002! We are pleased to bring you Teletubies on Broadway, an exciting new show for the young ones!!!"
That would SUCK!

Right, if it ain't a giga coaster, then I'm going to post the e-mail link, and then we'll flood them.
Everyone is starting to get the same feelings as me. We're sick of these simulator / adventure rides. Wow, I'm spinning around shooting alien targets in the dark (MIB), big deal, and it costed them 100 million. Auuuugghhhhh.

Ok, let's all start saying the same thing around here.

We want an Intamin Giga Coaster, or anything made by Intamin for that matter. Their rides don't break, they're smooth, and we know it works. Or a super B&M inverted.

MF will be the #1 coaster this year because nothing has come along to beat it. Hypersonic is cool, but it's a 1 trick pony, it won't win coaster of the year. Nitro won't win either. What does that tell you. Build another Intamin Giga.

It's time for all the parks to make us thrill seakers happy. Think of all the parks that have built a family ride recently, its a joke. BGW (Ireland), BGT (Rhino Rally), US (MIB), Disney (DCA - A family park trying to be a thrill park). It's time for some giga coasters.

Can't wait! Maybe this attraction will give me an excuse to come back to PKI after my botched two hour FOF experience and my throbbing headache on SOB!

Ok people. Sometimes you have to get your heads out of your *** and be happy with whatever they get. Of course I will be disappointed if PKI gets a non coaster. But Im not going to flood the hard working people at PKI with pointless Emails voicing how I am now too stuck up to go to your park cause you havent built a gigacoaster for you 30th anniversary. Maybe they are trying an expansion, or something else that they cant put in a giga this year, so they try to compensate with 2-3 good flat rides. Big deal. Maybe they will build a giga the next year.
My point is that if you arent happy with what PKI gets, stay out of the park. Less trash and less of a wait for whatever they get.
