RCT2 Manual - Coasters pictured.

I'm flipping through the manual (yes, on the increasingly rare occurance that a game manufacturer decides to include one in the box, I do actually look at them) while the game is installing, and I noticed something interesting:

There are seven pictures of real Six Flags rollercoasters scattered throughout the manual with some stats and their locations:

Deja Vu (that covers SFMM, SFOG, SFGAm. I understand that one.)

Medusa (SFGAdv, SFMW. Okay.)

V2:Vertical Velocity (Hmm... It only mentions SFMW, not SFGAm. Odd that they didn't go with S:UE so they could plug SFWOA.)

X (SFMM again, but of course they would include this one.)

Titan (SFOT. Really, no argument there. SFOT is one of the scenarios.)

Texas Giant (SFOT. Guess they needed a woodie.)

and..... Chang (SFKK?! Alright, this is the one that I really can't figure out. Being from Louisville, it's nice that we made it in, but why exactly is Six Flags pimping a 5-year old rollercoaster, and at SFKK of all places?)

Also, for Chang's stats, it says "World's longest, fastest, tallest, stand up coaster..." Umm, no. I expect this kind of crap from Six Flags, but when they also built the coaster that topped all three records, you'd think they would have gotten it right.

V2 over S:UE is no surprise, considering that Chris Sawyer didn't acquire the rights to use any of the superhero names (notice the missing Batman coasters in the scenerios as well).

As for Chang, I guess he wanted to include a stand-up in the manual. Since Riddler's Revenge is out of the question (same reason as above), I guess Chang was the next best option.

He could have done Iron Wolf instead of Chang.;)

"My friend who works there said.." In enthusiast talk is,"The Lemon Chill guy said.."

Ahhh... I didn't know about the lack of licensing for the super hero characters. That makes perfect sense, then. Once you take Riddler's out of the equation, the next one down the line would be Chang.

This is a little off topic but where can I find this game in the chicago-land area? I have been to target and they didn't have it! Do you think walmart would? Thanks!

Slash -

I'm thinking the Infogrames developers wrote this manual with the aid of the Six Flags, Inc. information given to them. I suppose they misunderstood Chang's description of "Debuted as the tallest and fastest stand-up coaster" as if it still were.
