    Is it me, or doesn't it seem somewhat ludicrous to play a simulation of something (paintball) that's already a simulation of something (armed combat)?

    paintball is a sport just as much as football or baseball. it has gone FAR away from being a military sim.

    I don't have an opinion on paintball games in general, I say if the game is fun to play, it can't be bad. Im sure the paintball game would be good for younger children whos parents don't allow them to play violent games. At least they can play some form of a FPS.

    With that said, I strongly believe this game will suck. I just doubt there would be enough interest in this game to justify a developer to fork over the money to make a A title about paintball. I think this game will be a game that gets played out within the first few days. Hopefully Im wrong, because Im sure a good paintball game would be a fun XBL clan game, but I doubt I am

    Well broomsticks, I think you are wrong. I think the video game industry has been in need of a good paintball game for a long time and I think this will be the one. I think there will be lots of interest in this game. Also, I don't think it will be a subsitute for an fps if it's a paintball sim, paintball guns have far less distance and less accuracy than a firearm, also a lot of fps's you have a health meter and can be shot several times without dying. In a paintball sim, if you get shot in the baby toe, you're out.
    There are more differences I can rant about but I'm sure everyone is tired of reading this post if anyone actually gets this far in it so I'm just gonan shut up.

    heh, actually, this game looks horrible IMO, an idea of a paintball game isnt bad though, but it just looks like one of those low-budget 20 dollar titles that you'll play for a little bit, id rather stick to rainbow

    Thats exactly what Im saying. If done right Im sure a paintball game would be hella fun, I just don't think this will be it. I hope Im wrong though, because I would love to play a good paintball videogame

    All I have to say is 11.3 million people play paintball in America and it is the fastest growing sport in the world.

    Watch some footage of the real sport being played, and tell me its not a sport.

    Hell, watch fox and and spike tv.

    I agree the game being at a $20 price tag may be the best bet,(but hey everything else in paintball is over priced).Paintball no doubt is a sport,a very popular one at that my local field gets a good 80 players on saterdays and im in a lil city.

    looks pretty decent to me, definently a rental IMO though.

    BTW, most of you guys are saying 20$ price tag, but according to ebgames its MSRP is 40$, but who knows.
