It's been over five years since Mike Robbins, Kai, MickMaximus, and RCTNW started Universal's Hollywood Hills as a RCT Masters group park. Although the club and most of its members disappeared from the community, Mike Robbins managed to remain a known and active figure on the forums. Since then, Robbins has gone on to win accolades here, including a Concept Creation, Sunrise Bay Ballpark, last September, and in NE's 2008 awards, placed 4th place in the "Best Comeback" category. Even with most collaborators leaving the project, the park still continued on under Mike's lead, with guest spots from NE members nin, Carl, and Kumba. This, plus those five years of work, have lead to New Element's latest Silver release, Universal's Hollywood Hills.

Immediately upon opening, Universal's Hollywood Hills is a throwback to the earlier, simpler style of RCT. However, for what it lacks in today's details, the park makes up for it in the sheer amount of ideas presented. The project consists of two 256x256 maps, one with the park, and the other with a CityWalk and water park. The city could be considered a vast expansion of Sunrise Bay's city area, and is detailed enough to be noteworthy. Mike seemed to get some help from rwadams here as well, who helped create some slides in the water park and the hotel on the park map. The park itself consists of four main areas, inspired by Islands of Adventure in Orlando. Marvel Island features Iron Man, a unique flyer from Carl, as well as some buildings by nin. The area is bright and colorful, much like the comics it was inspired by. Jurrasic Park has the most coasters in the park, including Iguanadon, a large woodie by Kumba. To wrap things up, Mike even added Lost Continent and the Port of Entry, all featuring nice, simple architecture that deftly conveys purpose. Although not insanely detailed like much of today's parks, the park consists of great themes, excellent ideas, and enough atmosphere to make an interesting park.

Overall, Universal's Hollywood Hills is an excellent throwback to the old New Element style and is a great counter to the detailed realism of todays RCT2. It is an excellent addition to New Element's Silver parks, and proves Mike Robbins as an undistinguishable force in RCT2.
