Ultimate Ride Is A Hit!

I have this game now and it's a true hit!

You can create coasters over 600 ft high in this game, reaching over 120 mph and pulling over 20 g's

Now I know you can't ride a ride like that in the real world, but what the hey, it's for fun.

I bought mine at a local Best Buy in Greenwood, IN

"Hit" depends on what your looking for. I myself and about 1/2 the other people on this site are looking for realistic physics and not-cartoony crap graphics. I'm sure for the people who enjoy fantasy games, and fantasy stuff, this game is great, but I think each individual person should decide for him/herself

Hey, SFGAm management, can I buy a couple cages of Sky Whirl?

Abosulutely right, I myself want to built something somewhat realated to real life. Also "Ultimate Ride" doesn't sound to chanlenging to me. I playes it and thought it was ok but not realistic and true to life. I'll stick with rct.

I got to agree!, you know I hate sites like Tycoon Resource, because their parks are so unrealistic, it's pathetic! I like the RCT recreations.

I think its hard to deem something a hit without looking at sales figures. And, I don't think sales figures are out yet on the game. (I could be very wrong however.) Wait at least a couple weeks before deeming anything a hit.

I bought this game on wednesday. I've already uninstalled it. This is simply silly and very non user-friendly. Installing Ultimate Ride has also caused problems with Roller Coaster Tycoon. I can not run RCT with ultimate ride installed. I had to remove UR and uninstall/reinstall RCT to fix the problem. I hope no one else runs into these same problems. Good luck if you must try Ultimate Ride.

Hypersonic..... indeed.

The only thing Roller Coaster Tycoon is missing is a front view of the rides. When you click on a ride that screen pops up. There should be a button with all the other buttons with an eye or something on it indicating a front view. That would be great to ride the rides you build or lay down.

I think the game is tight! The Wooden Coaster is more realistic than the other types. I'd have too aggree there is no challenge to it, sence the first coaster I built in the program ran perfectly. Altough I could see it getting boring after a little while because all you could do is build coasters (not saying that's a bad thing.)

Take it easy man. Just because you think this game is the greatest thing since mashed potatoes, and since you know what everyone looks for in a video game, I guess we should all take your word for it and run out and get it. Frankly, and I think I speak for many here, Drop it with posting for this crap*****game. I dont even want to try it after hearing this rant. Just sell your stock in whatever company published this Theme Park re-hash and enjoy it on your own terms. So this game may not be as big as RCT. Its pretty hard to compete with something so close to perfect.

No one even said anything bad about it. Dont get all defensive on us, it is just a game.

I personally don't think this was ever meant to compete with RCT. This is just a creative piece by the Disney Imagineers

It's really cool to think about on "fantasy" terms. And do keep in mind, some of today's wildest and newest type of rides were unheard of just 5 years ago.

It's all got to start somewhere:)

-----------------

I think everyone is still kind of furious with irondragon and his enthusiasm about the game. We need to chill alittle. Buy the game and then talk about it.

Ok.. think about it, maybe people DO want it because you can do things you CAN'T do in RCT.... not everybody wants an experience true to RCT, people are "allowed" to like other games just because you don't.

Is this the game with the B&M trains on it ?
I remember one game with what looked like B&M sitdown or Floorless train.

I got the game, I understand your opinions but it's still a pretty good game

it's hard to compare it with rct because they each have different basis

it is better than rct in some ways

you can change the banking of the track, even the loops

the graphics are far superior and views are all in 3D

more space to build

you can ride it

you don't have to worry about money, time, or park problems

I Just bought this game . I Like it. the program has a very friendly interface as compaired to some of the other 3D Coaster builders out there.

I did notice in one of the demo tracks that if you stick to something "real life," it can be pretty accurate looking. I'm anxious to see some recreations of real rides.

Disneys sent me the game free yesterday, when I get it I'll have a review up and be able to input my feedback. ;)
