Rating: Summary: Avoid if you're a RollerCoaster Tycoon fan Review: All you do in this game is build rollercoasters! There are no money to make or customers to ride your coaster that you've worked so hard to build. I was fooled at the time I bought this game by the pics with the ferris wheel, concession shops, and themepark stuff in the background; I thought it was a tycoon/sim game. The game calls these nonfunctioning buildings "props."The good thing about the game is the detail they put into the coasters like banking curves, vert. and lat. G's, and speed. The flaws I've seen is that you have to go 70 mph to go thru a simple vertical loop. Now that's crazy. Also, the graphics are good, and the ride-your-own-coaster is descent...
Rating: Summary: Get UR Disney Edition, it's the latest... Review: Before you waste your [money] on this version go buy the latest version, the Disney Edition. Why? Because this version has a few annoying bugs that may never get fixed. 1) Some MP3's won't play correctly, 2) MP3's won't play in test mode--how are you supposed to build a coaster timed to music?! I've brought up these issues on the game site. I highly doubt they will be fixed since it seems the Disney version is the only version being touted now. On the plus side, this game is plain awesome. It makes building coasters a breeze and you'll be working on your first masterpiece right away. Don't buy this game unless your sole intention is to build your own coasters. That's what this game is all about. If you are expecting something else then you're sadly mistaken (like some reviewers who gave low ratings). I recommend this game (Disney version) to any coaster freak who wants to build their own. Also check out No Limits Coaster Simulator (only available on the web/download)---a more serious approach--the ultimate metal coaster builder. Both are must-haves for a coaster builder or enthusiast. Bunches of coasters online for your pleasure. What are you waiting for? Get the Disney version.
Rating: Summary: Adequate Review: But I'm not sure I'll like it as much as others seem to, since I don't work PR for Disney.
Rating: Summary: Ultimate IS the ultimate! Review: finally... a roller coaster game that where you don't have to be a "business major" to play! this IS a very enjoyable and rewarding roller coaster game experience -- my son and I are avid roller coaster riders in the 'real' world and have stood in line at many a day talking about what we would build if we had the chance! Well, here it is in the 'virtual' world!...neither one of us are "roller coaster tycoons", and almost didn't buy this game because we thought it was just like the others... now i can say without hesitation it was one of the best [money] i ever spent!...

Rating: Summary: New game is awsome Review: I know that it's not out yet and won't be for awile. But I think it will be a breat add on to the game go over to the website ( imagineering.com )and check out the video and the four new screen shots! it will be better because now you can mke half loops right and left corkscrews. That means you can make any type of coaster you want. Also with new places and coasters it will be worth every Penny. Can;t wait til' April 2nd
Rating: Summary: The best coaster game ever made! Review: I think this is an amazing game, and will be rated very well!
Rating: Summary: Fasten your Seatbelts - Deluxe Rocks! Review: I've had the opportunity to preview this product and unquestionably, this follow-up takes the original version to new heights. Along with all the original fixings that graced Ultimate Ride, the Deluxe version includes new track types, like Flying and Standing Coasters, new environments and many exciting new props. Top this off an extended menu of new track pieces which include half-cork screws,tunnels and much more, and your talking about a whole new breed of coaster action. New options have been added, such as turning off collision with the props, which means, coaster tracks can now be placed directly over, under and even through props! There's even a the ability to turn on crowd screams. Overall, Ultimate Ride fans will be in heaven, and new recruits are about to take the ride of their life. If only movie sequels were this good. - JC
Rating: Summary: This is going to be AWESOME! Review: If you have been watching the official site for the game... you know that Hopbell and his crew are putting together an amazing new version of the already classic Ultimate Ride game. You simply must have this game! It's the coolest coaster game ever and you cannot call yourself a coaster fan without it! 'Nuff said?
Rating: Summary: Fun for the whole family together. Review: Rarely does a game come along that offers all the facets for the family to enjoy together. Regardless of gender the ULTIMATE RIDE COASTER DELUXE has no boundaries. the children and their parents get a chance to compete with each other using all their creativity. Just good oldfashion fun. No combat, no guns, no tanks, no planes. roller coasters. Designed by each player. Track designed by each player. Terrain selected by eack player. Disney interactive has to be applauded for giving us creative entertainment without the blood and guts of combat and more combat. The sound and visual effects of designing your own roller coaster and taking it on its maiden run are a unique thrill. The choices from coaster, to tracks and tressels, and terrain promise the users to many hours of non duplicated fun. Visually this game has asthetic values that change and are rewarding from design to design.Directions are clear, making the hours spent, hassle free. I envy all who will be taking their first trips on their newly designed roller coasters.
