Mega Poster
This year has been the year of the mega coaster, with 3 great new megas scraping the skies this season, I want to see how you think they stack up against some other, highly appraised megas.

In the poll I've included some top rated mega coasters, by enthusiasts and awards, (yes those dreaded GTAs)

I can tell I'm going to get a lot of hate for this thread, as there are similar ones out there. but this is more out of my curiosity than building conversation.
 
Not to derail already: I still don't think the GTAs are thaaat bad. Aside from a few, I'd say we'd agree with the general rankings.

Anywho, still MForce in my book. Even 12 years later (holy crap) it's a perfect ride. Tall, fast, unrelenting pace, glass smooth, lengthy ride, not much air but still some good floats.
The lift is quick, but still goes long enough to give that "oh s**t this high" feeling, the drop still has a feeling of falling, and it's just super enjoyable.
More intense rides like I305 and Skyrush come with complaints of greying out and leg pain.

We'll see if Bizarro can take its spot.
 
Skyrush basically just blows every other mega I've ridden out of the water but I also found Apollo's Chariot to be really awesome and amazingly reridable.
 
A mega roller coaster is defined at 200 ft.; so Leviathan, MF, and I305 should be removed as they are gigas.
 
Goliath at Walibi Holland is my favourite coaster but that is not on the poll so I will have to vote for my second favourite coaster EGF
 
1) Skyrush
2) I305
3) Nitro
4) Bizarro
5) Apollo's Chariot
6) Expedition GeForce

Haven't been on the rest but some of them look like they would be up there for sure!
 
Of everything on the list (gigas included)
1. Millennium Force
2. Intimidator 305
3. Bizarro
4. SkyRush
5. Nitro
6. Apollo

If you only count megas, then take out the top two.
 
Of the ones I have been on:

1. Bizarro
2. Skyrush
3. Leviathan
4. Behemoth
5. Nitro
6. Magnum XL-200
7. Diamondback
8. Apollo's Chariot
9. Millennium Force
10. I-305
11. Goliath- La Ronde
12. I-232

That's all I can think of right now.
 
Of the one's of the list I've been on my order is as followed

1:Skyrush
2:Shambhala
3:Leviathan
4:Nitro
5:Apollo's Chariot
6: I305
 
Yup, I305, Millie, and Leviathan are still not Megas.
 
What a random selection.

From that list, probably Shambhala.

Skyrush looks good, but I don't see how it could be the best...

Actually, where the heck is Behemoth?

Not ridden?
It's the most deceptive POV ever. It really doesn't look like much, not even in person, but it packs a surprising whallop. First time I rode I was actually scared, which is a rare coaster moment.
