It's pretty simple. Re-read, or read for the first time, my points in "Why You Should Be Excited" for both coasters. I'm more excited about the experience X-Flight might give than I am about 'a giga coaster'.

I don't get how you can have a wing coaster over a giga coaster.

My personal thoughts for the top 6 is this:

6: Manta

5: Verbolten

4: Wild Eagle

3: X-Flight

2: Leviathan

1: Skyrush

Overall, 2012 has been a very good year for coasters.

WOW very disapointed that X-Flight doesnt rotate like X2. The experience isnt the same until you immediately flip onto your chest down a 200 foot drop. smh

So I was really pumped for X Flilght since I live in chicago, until i realized it doesnt rotate like X-2 in California. I'm not sure if youre familiar with that ride, but it's the most intense ride i've ever been on, and i've been to Cedar Point (still the king in my opinion) for many years. Why doesn't X-Flight have this rotate feature- I was looking forward to re riding such an intense coaster!

I agree about the event building for Verbolten. It does look out of place. It's just a huge green metal box.They sort of regraded the area and took out a lot of the trees where the Big Bad Wolf's mini village was. The coaster layout looks really sweet though. Hopefully they will plant a bunch of new trees in the regraded areas to fill it back in a bit.

Again, I didn't feel like including international coasters (like I normally do) because there were so many new North American coasters this year. I'll have a list of the best looking coasters from other countries soon.
