Totally Awsome!!!

Ultimate Ride is totally awsome! The graphics, sounds, and animations are fantastic. You can build whatever type of coaster you want, from realistic to physically impossible fantasy coasters. ...There are a lot of props, landscapes, tracks, and other options to choose from when building a coaster. This game makes all the other wannabe sim coaster games look [bad]. Ultimate Ride is the ONLY true roller coaster simulation game on the market. And the price is very good. ...

I would like to dispell some ignorant comments made in some of the previous posts...

Regarding the game not being realistic: the game allows you to create your own coasters. You can create realistic ones, or fantasy ones. It is up to your own imagination.

Regarding any technical issues with the game: there is a technical support message board on their website. If you read through or search the posts, you will find answers to almost anything. A few people said they had trouble getting the game to work. ...

Playing the gameon a laptop: the game clearly states the minimum system requirements on the bottom of the box (just like all other software products). The minimum system requirements for the game are right at par with all the other new software programs on the market. By the way, the game requires at least an 8MB 3D video card. Don't complain that you expect more from a software developer just because your system doesn't meet the minimum system requirements.

Kellogg's cereal box: yes, there is a demo of the game in cereal boxes throughout the US. The demo offers the ability to view a few of the coasters that are in the retail game. You cannot build coasters in the demo. ...the game is really awsome. ...Ultiamte Ride is well worth buying.

Yes!

Well for those you blah mouths that say "ohh it can't handle being on my laptop" then maybe you should start thinking before you buy a game. That is why they have system requirements, for those who are unsure. Also this game isn't supposed to be realistic because 1. made by disney, 2. It's called Ultimate, meaning its going to be crazy and outgragous.

very fun

I think Ultimate ride was fun to play but is a little bit hard for younger kids . I would recomend this game for ages 10-16 . Anyone younger might not enjoy this game because you need a little bit of patience . But the graphics are pretty good . And the installation process was easy . It might take some time getting used to all the buttons but overall it is a great game . Have fun !

hip music and surreal graphics

The music is rock-n-rollish, and the graphics are surreal. The software is compatible with Windows 95/98/ME/XP. I was impressed with the game's 3-D imaging.

Ive been a rollercoaster freak forever and when I saw this I had to buy it. What I like most about it is that you are free to do whatever you want. It has an excellent interface and it is really easy to use. You can even swap rollercoaster at their offical site and more. I keep playing this game more than all my others. definately If you like rollercoasters then get this game. It is really fun.

Ultimate ride rox!

This is the best roller coaster sim/whatever else I ever played! But only one Con:

You can't make a theme park, or let 3d people ride them or get money. You just ride 'em.

But who cares about that? You get awsome environments to build on (asteroid sound good to you?) You can get many good props, and build every kind of coaster-steel, wooden, hanging! Some props are dragons(yes they breathe fire) planets(they do spin(mars sound good))and many others! I made some coasters, like "ERUPTION" and they are awsome! You can do that, too! JUST BUY THE GAME!

It's fun, but the graphics are not fun

I loved this game, but it would be hard for 5-7 year olds. I love adding spins, and loops, but the graphics are...... ok. If you add to manty spins, loops, and turns, you have no idea where your going. I love building high roller coasters, but there's a limit to how high you can go. I love building them on the island. I love this game, but if you could find it for a lower price, that would be better.
