I loved it. So much fun. The only problem is that this now makes Buzz seem rather boring.

I'm surprised everybody seems to like it. I'd heard some pretty strongly negative reviews saying how much it sucks.

Of course, those were all before anybody had ever been on it so maybe they were as reliable as I'd thought.

My biggest complaint about the ride is when it's hot and sunny out, the enclosed area of the entrance queue is damn hot. That goes for the exit queue as well. (But I do like seeing the box for the game as you leave.)

It was a relatively cool evening last night and it was still damned hot in there.

The ride itself is very fun. I find the second time i rode it last night btw i scored better and between Matt and i the distance in scores lessened compared to the first ride thru. I do agree that in the hot weather the queue has no shade no fans nothing to help ease the temperature outside poor planning on the parks part but hey i won't judge it just from that alone.

I squealed throughout the ride but especially on the spinning aspect of it. Didn't seem as jerky last night either more smooth and i find that so much better than the first ride thru.

I also saw a few higher targets as well and was like "Oh ****" lol yes i said it out loud too lmao...this time around i saw more higher targets than the first ride thru. First time i think there is so much to see that you kinda get lost in the overall atmosphere of the ride. But ride it again and then hopefully you'll get to see the other targets etc.

I know last night my hand didn't hurt nearly as well. One i laid off the string and ball so to speak instead of going full out. But also the fact that i held it in between my fingers rather than with my whole hand (clawlike) that seemed to help as well compared to my first ride thru i found i had more stamina throughout the entire game up to the bonus round.

I love the fact you work as a "team" to compete for the high scores. Matt and I almost did combined lol but i have a feeling as we reride it we'll score better so...funny i had better accuracy then he did yet he outscored me....definitely a hit for me much more enjoyable than Buzz

Ooooh, I was one of those. The concept sounds entirely lame. Even now, if I were to describe it, it would sound cheap and stupid to me.

I'm not sure how much of its winning charms were due to it being a grand four minutes of fun and how much to breezily exceeding expectations.

Thank you guys for the wonderful positive posts!!!

I actually love Buzz, the family competes for prizes $$ and that makes it even more fun.

How does this '4-D' effect work? Do you have to wear the glasses? How does this go for people who wear glasses?

I can't wait. But, since I have to I will look to the positive that it will be cooler when I eventually do go and hopefully not hot in the queue.
