I've been on the hunt recently for an old 2007 game called Pain, it was developed by a company called Idol Minds.

I've tried many places, Ebay and Etsy have nothing i could find other than a "Welcome to Playstation" Disc that advertised Pain. I've called countless stores and also have emailed a dozen more, both here in the states and overseas, and none have found one

If anyone could help me locate a copy of this game, weather physical or digital, though physical is preferred, It would mean a lot to me, and if someone is okay with it, i'm more than willing to purchase it from you if you do have one

I know there's a dedicated group of people who love this ride, but man you guys and everyone else deserve so much better

I rode this ride over 3 years ago before they retracked it and i absolutely hated the ride experience, it immediately became my least favorite cosster of all time.

But recently since I was going on a big trip I wanted to give this ride another chance, especially since they retracked it with some new wood and even titan track, maybe I had overblown how bad it was on my first visit, I mean there's was no way it could be worse than Nopuko Air Coaster which was my current least favorite ride

But oh boy was I so wrong, once you get past the nice titan track, the ride experience can be described as a literally car crash. The train was bouncy up and down, slamming against the track as It flew thru its layout. I acutely think the titan track has made the ride worse cause now it goes even faster into the next element which makes it even more unbearable

Seriously this ride either needs a full gravity group retrack or they need RMC to convert it immediately. Otherwise the only other good choice in my mind is to let it burn to the ground

So my first time going to Indiana Beach and needless to say I have some strong thoughts.

I went on a Friday after doing kings island the day before and I went into it with some mid expectations, but I wasn't expecting to have my socks blown off by the experience

Now the rides themselves aren't bad, unfortunately all American Triple looper was closed for the time i was there, due to appearent bad weather (even though it didn't even rain while i was there) and Hoosier Hurricane could use some retracking but nothing unbearable to ride

But man, I don't know if it was just the way the park is ran or if its just really old, but it felt so sketchy. Quite a lot of the park is suspended over water on concrete platforms, but while walking around I noticed the seemingly lack of upkeep in areas. By cyclone there was a piece of concrete that had broken off from the side of the platform and was just in the water. Everything looked like it was covered in rust and grim and hadn't been property cleaned in some time, and the whole placed reeked of a pop up carnival vibe that I just couldn't really enjoy

And don't get me started on operations at the park, IROC clearly doesn't exist here, besides checking restraints, most of the operators looked bored of just didn't seem to care at all, and seeing the operators push the ride vehicles at Tig'rr and Cyclone did not make me feel confident in the rides safety.

Overall, I don't think I will be coming back to the park anytime soon, as I just don't understand why I would go here over its closet neighbors, Holiday World, Kings Island, and Six Flags Great America

I'm still trying to confirm the news with some friends who still work out there, but if true than this is just unfortunate

Worlds of Fun has had a rough year

Now i'm not saying this ride won't be amazing when it opens, nor am I trying to say that everyone should hate this ride, but i have to ask, Considering the legacy of Kingda Ka and its untimely demise, do we think Project Purple will acutely be able to separate its self from Ka and be its own thing?

Personally i'm still a little upset I never got to ride Kingda Ka before it closed, and while this ride will most likely be a better and hopefully more reliable experience. I just don't think I or even other people will be able to fully appreciate Project Purple without being reminded of Kingda Ka

I don't know way GCI didn't just titan track the whole thing when they built it, becuase out side of the first section and the wrap around the lift, the rest of this layout is pretty rough, especially the finale. I'd even say it's on par or sometimes even rougher than Prowler just down the way and that roller coaster is over 15 years old

Maybe it has something to do with how heavy the trains are, maybe it was the wood they built it with, or maybe Worlds of Fun has just not being taken the best care of it, but they really need to do something or this rides reputation is going to be even worse in just a few short years

And don't even get me started on how loud the lifthill is now, i can barely hear myself think let alone talk to the person next to me while going up it

Saw this while getting into Zingers Queue line yesterday, and from what I could figure out, apparently the lift hills hydraulics that drop the chain for the second half of the ride all blew up and need to be replaced

​

Don't expect this ride to open up anytime soon, on the bright side though, I heard Mamba finally reopened after about 2 weeks of being down, they've been welding the crap out of the track

Passed by the site today and saw construction crews setting up, so we could see acutely excavation anx construction possibly happening in the near future

These folks just want to doom every day, 24/7
