If you are looking for a paintball simulator, don't buy this game without renting it!
One of the good things is the wiping system. When you are hit, you get the chance to cheat and wipe the paint before the refs can see that you have been hit. One of the major downsides of this game is that it is one player. I think this game would be a great multiplayer but you cant play when you have friends over.
Another goodside of this game is that when you are hit, in career mode, if you fail to wipe the paint and are eliminated, you just become one of your teamates instead of losing the whole match. Most of the time your teamates stink, so it doesnt make a difference. Greg Hastings Tournament Paintball 2 is a multiplayer game with some improvements so if you are looking for a realistic paintball experience, buy the sequal of Tournament Paintball. These downsides dont make the game bad. I like to play when I'm alone and have free time. I always lose because I cant afford to buy any skilled teamates but thats just me. If you can win a first prize and get some money your thoughts might be different. My final advice, rent this game first, or play Greg Hastings Tournament Paintball 2!
