The demo was great and the game looks cool. I have seen it in stores ranging from $33-39. I tried to see what the editor looks like but haven't found it yet. If it is anything like Ultra Coaster then I will wait for the other coaster games since I already have Ultra Coaster and the only difference would be the scenery.

Looks a little sub-par compared to No Limits. I'm gonna save my money for later this month when No Limits is released.

I have Ultimate Ride. I got it at Best Buy on sale for $27.99. The game is not very realistic in my opinion. I built a 330 foot coaster without even realizing it, but it had a gradual 200 foot drop that only took it to 54 MPH. There are accelerator boosters that can quickly get your train oer 120 MPH, and a regular hyper can ride upside down along almost the entire track. The build mode takes a while to get used to, but seems somewhat flexible. You can change angles for absolutely anything; banks, drops, corkscrews, loops, anything. There are a limited number of places that you can build your coaster though, and there is no way that I've seen where you can alter the terrain. There are two mountain areas, an asteroid, a lava area, and a blank grid that reminds me of hte holodeck from Star Trek. The ride option is cool, and I've by no means really spent a lot of time with it, but I'm somewhat disappointed by it.

The one thing that looked neat to me was the fact that you can choose between wooden and steel coasters. I just wish that they had standard scenery as an option. The ones I saw on there are way to "fantasy-land" looking.

Building an ultra unrealistic fantasy ride could be fun to build, but i still dont think this is going to be better then rct. Mayby ill try it, ill wait and see what others have to say first.
