OH GOD! You know what, 3-d movie rides are not my thing. ESPECIALLY NOT MOVING 3-D MOVIE RIDES! I was so dizzy after this. I actually wanted to leave the park after I saw this cuz I felt sick. Just not my thing at all. I did stay after regaining my compusure

Ugh, thanks for lowering the score on this ride even more because of your inability to handle motion -_- Seriously, just because you got sick on the thing doesnt make it a bad ride. Was it high quality? Was it highly themed? I really hate it when somebody gives a ride a bullcrap review just because they couldnt handle the ride. Besides, this ride is very timid, if you ask me...

Well it had to be reall enough to through his sences off if you got sick. Normaly low quality images dont proces as well and dont tend to make you dizzy. May be you wshoudl take a little time and thing about the quality of the ride the sets and ride system. I can see lowerign it a bit if it made you Sick but 8 points?

Well, you cant fault a person too much for coming away with a negative experience on the ride and translating that into a low-score review. I mean, the user may not have even known what the ride is, because as Mission Space continues to tell us, no one actually reads the signs...

I have given many rides 6s or better despite the fact that I hated the ride program or got a little shaken up on the ride. I still have trouble understanding why this guy got so sick on DarKastle and yet he can handle Alpengeist????? :o

I think its the 3-D aspects of it, and the motion accompanying the images, that made him sick. But I agree with you ferg, Alpengeist is much more intense and dizzying than DarKastle. And even I, who am not a big fan of DarKastle, would never give it a 2.

If he (?) hated it, he hated it. Thats what makes for horse races.... That, and horses.

Yeah well piles of shit also accompany horse races, and this review is one of those piles of shit

On Alpengeist, your senses dont tell you to concentrate on anything. You just get taken away, swung around, and enjoy the view and feeling. In Curse of Darkastle, youre instincts make you concentrate on the movie and turning train. Just not my thing. Sorry, if I hate a ride, Im gonna give it a certain score. I dont really care what the overall score is, I just give my score and tell exactly how I feel.

I dont care about the score. I havnt been on the ride. But I need raitign to get an idea of the ride. Froma 2 ratign it leaves me to beleave they is nothing good about this ride. What makes the ide a 2? why such a low score what outside of makeign your sike didnt you like? Myself Im Just looking for Justification I guess.

LOL, it makes me sick. If I dont like the ride, Ill give it a low score. If I almost end my visit to the park that day cuz of a ride, Im gonna give it a very low score. Cmon, if a ride makes you dizzy and sick, do you really need another reason? Obviously, I did not enjoy it, I got a negative experience, and for a minute, I was thinking about going home. When I was watching the movie and the seat was moving around, I just kept on wanting it to end. Just my experience. Hey, obviously Im not a majority but not everybody is gonna like this ride. So, Im sure most likely other peoples opinions give a better detail of more likely the experience of this attraction. But if I got a negative experience, you cant expect anything but a low score. Im just giving an honest opinion about my experience. It most likely wouldnt happen to most people but it definitely does to many and it could be you too? Youre getting everybodys opinion of the ride and this is one opinion thats highly possible, thats all.

I get the fact that you were sick but did you eat before riding. It might be something other then the ride. I’m just trying to get your opinion on other aspects of the ride. Video quality, ride themeing, Story line, etc. I’m not arguing your score. Just trying to understand it and get your views of the over all ride. I know it can make some people sick now but that’s it.

Oh well, its his loss...Curse of DarKastle is an amazing experience and deserves more than a 2. I was just mainly upset that another low score was given to DarKastle... bringing its rating down even further...and for a dumb reason that was beyond the rides control. Only 12 more days until I get to ride it again

I added on to my DarKastle review if anyone would like to read it...it reviews the rides improvements that were new for 2006 and basically gives a comparison of the ride in 2005 versus the ride today:

Im too sided on this as you can see by my responce. its just I want to know what peope feel about all aspects of the ride. I can understand lower raiting for long waits, Geting sick, beign painfull, etc. but the raiting should reflect any good aspects of the ride also.
