Honestly, Universal Studios Singapore is much better! USJ only has 6 rides for adults, Spider-Man ride will be down for two months, so we are left with 5. One of them is a super lame ride called 'Back to the Future', it's just like a car, u sit in it and watch graphics -.- it did not move at all, all it did was shake a little. Gosh, it was labelled as a 'dynamic ride' how misleading! USS's transformers is way better. So now we are left with 4 adult rides... The Space Fantasy and Jurassic Park are quite fun but not very thrilling. And there's another pretty okay ride - the Jaws. It's not exactly a ride I'd say... No thrill, no excitement, just a bit of fun. And the last one is the super thrilling roller coaster which I gave it a miss. Lol. It is freaking scary to watch ><. But frankly speaking, my threshold for thrill is pretty high but I'm timid. Perhaps if I've been on it I'd say that USJ is worth a visit :p
Well anyway, for USJ I'd only truly recommend the Space Fantasy and the Hollywood Dream roller coaster, other than that others are quite boring and simply not worth the $84~ admission ticket! In contrast, USS has more to offer, the blue and red roller coaster rides, transformers, the Mummy etc.
It seems that USJ is more kid-friendly, there are many rides and play lands for children as compared to adults. Oh yes, and it is not really a place for tourists as all of the shows are in Japanese and there is no subtitles, translations :( so we can't understand the shows and they seemed to be pretty lame! The shows I'd recommend would probably be a Rock n Roll show as the songs are in English and they sing 100% live, and also the hello kitty show which is simply tooooo kawaii!!! Hahaha!
Though USJ was a disappointment, BUT the shopping area outside USJ is just fantastic! Haha! It has lotsa yummy food and there's a JUMP store OMMO!!!! I was soooo thrilled to see Naruto with Luffy on a ship! Lol.
Ooooh and we had awesome sushi at a sushi bar near the JR station! The sashimi are so fresh and they came at affordable prices too. Yummy yummy yummy yummy.
