Paintball 2009 - Gifted Gamer Review
–GIFTED GAMER REVIEW
This is a paintball game that shows how the game is professionally played.
One good thing about this game, is that unlike real paintball, you don’t get welts.
On the other hand you don’t get to cause welts on others, so there is that side of it too…
In this game, you can customize your hopper, marker, outfit, helmet, gun and a few other add-ons that makeup your character. In online mode, you can use the same gear that you use in career mode.
There are two types of paintball: woodsball and speedball. In each paintball field you play in, there are bunkers and obstacles for you to hide behind. You can choose to use the bunkers as cover or you can ignore them and blitz your opponent. When it is 7 on 7 single player, I generally blitz because I will get a few of them at least, and then I can switch to another unshot player on my team to finish them off. At first it is fun because these are single paintball matches. But later on they become tournaments. I find that the tournaments take too much time and if your skill can already beat the final level, you should be able to choose to advance further and not have to repeat the same fights over and over again.
It is fun to play online WHEN there are players, but this is a scarcely visited online room, so hard to get any real matches going. (unlike Call of Duty where you can get over 100,000 at a time online just on the PS3 servers). The biggest paintball match online I have played is 3 on 3, so hard to get a full room when everyone’s attention is on different games.
There is no real story line to this, all you are doing is repeating levels with slightly different fields. Sometimes though, this is fun to just play around, sprint down the field, grab the flag and outrun all the flying paintballs the opponents shoot at you. There is no team killing in this game. You can be prone, crouched or standing. You can switch if your character is right or left-handed by pressing the square button. Also some of the tunes are pretty catchy. So worth a rental.
This game is played in first person view. Overall I would say you should rent this game before you buy it. I give it a 6/10.
