Sonic Spineball

U.K. Amusement Park Getting Sonic Rollercoaster

Quote
The Alton Towers amusement park in Staffordshire, England has included "Sonic Spinball," an updated version of the park's "Spinball Whizzer" coaster inspired by Sega's speedy hedgehog. "Partnering Sonic with one of the U.K.'s most popular destinations for a family day out is a fantastic opportunity for people to engage, and have fun, with the Sonic brand," said Sega UK marketing director Amanda Farr (via MCV). The ride officially kicks off on February 13, which seems an ominous date to launch a new amusement park attraction (not that we're superstitious or anything, but come on). So if you're in the area and think you can stomach it, why not give the Sonic Spinball a whirl?

We just hope they eventually build a lamer, less popular sidekick coaster you're forced to also ride, just to complete the Sonic experience.

so yeah, it might be a re-named ride, but it actually does suit sonic quite nicely. i could imagine how trippy riding this would be... spinning on a rollercoaster... WEEE! ... * stomach barf? *

When I read about this on The Sonic Stadium I nearly pissed myself. I swear when I eventually go to London that's the first place I'm going to.

it looks so slow, and like a clone of the roller coaster serial thriller from six flags astroworld.
