Better than paintball?

[V-Viper]

I was just brosweing aimlessly on google and found this site:

http://www.battlefieldsports.com/

Its pretty much a laser tag game with a realistic twist. I found it interesting but the site makes a pretty hard effort to make it seem better than paintball. (on top of page the link vs. paintball). Just wondering what you ppl think.

is that like a MILES gear type thing?

if so i bet it sucks

lazer tag is lame, ment for lil kids to play until they are 10 so they can move to the real game of paintball, and already have a little bit of skill developed. paintball ownz.

actually the computer something or another club here at school has a lazer tag club thing. I couldn't believe they make people sign waivers before they play it.

Lazer skirmish = war monger game
Paintball = professional sport w/ equipment that may resemble guns.

if i wanted to be in the woods playing commando, id be playing airsoft, not paintball or lazergey.

yeah it looks kinda cool, but if ur not able to feel some pain whats stoping u from just doing dumb things like running into a bunker of 10 peeps and taking them all out, u will have almost no fear so it will change the game a lot BAD!

Yay....lets shoot at each other with beams of light! I used to play lazer tag, But thats when i was 10 and a set (2 guns/packs) didn't cost $400! i mean that is unreal, why would anyone pay $400 for a gun that shoots beams of light?

One of the more interesting points made on that site is that the Scout Association prohibits its members from playing paintball. Some cursory googling shows that this is because such activities "are based on pointing and shooting a loaded weapon at a person." I couldn't find a similar prohibition on squirt guns, though.

I'm thinking this is a golden PR opportunity.

yeah, but then SOME people (not me) could turn around and say "how could you spend $1500 on some crap to shoot globs of paint at eachother??"
(my dad would definitely say that if I ever spent much, he already does now!!)
