Honestly, they fit right it. Hopefully they feel as at home once they open and have sounds/music/etc.

I hear the games are going to be opening next week. Sometime midweek I believe

I find that tough to believe because as of 2 days ago BSR hadn't started installing any of the actual games, they are just empty shelters right now. But with UOR anything is possible...

If those games open next week I'll ride both the dragons naked.

 

[JPFan]

I guess we shall see then

Indeed we will...:look:

Is anything going on with the JP expansion other than the games? I know that all the big news at the moment is with the Diagon Alley progress, but it's always good to hear about all of Universal's projects.

The games are Phase 1 with the good stuff coming in Phase 2. This is the same thing they did with Springfield as the games were actually labeled Phase 1 and the FFB, Duff Gardens, and Kang and Kodos being officially labeled as Phase 2. The main reason the games in JP are going up so much faster this go around is because they need them open to offset the loss of revenue once they close down the games in the Lost Continent. Those games are closing in order to build a new 'courtyard' entry area for Hogsmeade and the South Station of the Hogwarts Express.

It doesn't take that long to set these games up. The water race game at LC got pulled (with a temp one in it's place) maybe two months ago to be re-themed. So I would assume they are ready to go in at a moments notice. They're all tested and ready to go before install, so it's really drop the games in and plug in for those that require it.

 

[JPFan]

^ Yep I was told the games could be installed overnight. Which night is another question.

 

[Bryce]

I wish these games would impact the Toon Lagoon games. Are there any plans to ever remove those? They are hideous.

When Toon Lagoon gets axed later this decade, they most definitely will be removed.

When Toon Lagoon gets axed later this decade, they most definitely will be moved somewhere else.

Fixed it for you.

Really.. Oh dear... Shall I do the Hungarian horn tail or chinese fire ball first?

Fixed those spelling mistakes, Ash.... don't worry, everyone makes mistakes, that's why they put erasers on pencils.

 

[JPFan]

Games are being installed right now

 

[IzzyB]

Get ready Ash.... :rofl:

One lesson most of us have learned is never bet against Uni when it comes to them finishing a project by a certain date.

 

[Accio Butterbeer]

Random question, and then I'll get back to the JP discussion. But what ever happened to the rumor that there might be a show inside London's facades? Was that even a rumor or a suggestion?

the better question is how are you taking pics to prove it? :thumbs:
