blame it on the dsm. The crash, not the drifting.


Off topic but on topic as well....has anyone played the game "skate" for xbox 360? If i could throw my board against a rail or pedestrian, it would make it that much sweeter. People in the way in the game **** me off just as much as they do in real life and being able to fracture your skull and shatter your femur makes it all too real for kids who play it. Luckily, i've never broken anything skating om real life. Thought i broke my tailbone once trying impossibles but thats it....

360 flips are just as hard in the game as they are in real life. Flip stick whatnot. MMMM 360 flips.

Not really a suprise since they are all kinda related. Things like bmx, skating, snowboarding all involve controling your cg, drifting is the same thing, just using the car's cg instead.

Round here tho, seems a lot of people like airsoft who drift, go figure.

Hellz ya it is. Besides, costs over 1500 dollars to get a decent paintball gun and it's all about speedball now-a-days and flashy uniforms n teams like avalanch n going pro, etc.

1000 bucks n I can get a frogman throat mic, radio, marpat camo, decent fps all metal weapon replica, vest w/ accessories, side arm w/ holster, and a survival knife w/kit. The best thing is, it's all for fun instead of competition since it's based on honor system.

Anyways, i'll stop hijaking

you dont need a 1500$ marker to play, the ion is what 300$ now and it has the 15BPS cap that all the other Uber markers cannot go over. a good pair of JT pants a older proflex and a t-shirt is what i usually play in.

13, you need to play airsoft with some hard core players. The kind that don't whine about the rain/snow/darkness. The type of games where you have to look out for trip wire claymores/frags, watch out for tree snipers, have to use grapling hooks to enter buildings because the door is to well guarded, and use old *****'s jeeps to get around 300 acres of wilderness. Heck, our old PAAC team up hear used to have an APC they played around with.

Then you'll be like, 'Man, why did I ever play paintball'.

Hmm never been shot before, been shot at a few times tho. I do say it's no fun when you can't do anything about it. But i'm still an avid airsoft fan.

Hell i dont even play paintball anymore really, i just keep the tech work down for my lil bro and his team. His teamate (Adam Payne) won a 1 on 1 against a dynasty player named Ryan Greenspan with a pump Carter Buzzard while he was using his waffle dynasty shocker this was at ultimate madness a couple of years back. Hell their whole team was in the room right beside ours and we all played halo together over the couple of days that the comp was on.

Nah, heard of them, im up for some games tho if your part of evergreen. Borrowed a gun from battlesim one day n thats what got me into airsoft. Played as a sniper with firstsword, descovered sniping with airsoft is really difficult so im sticking with my famas for now, plus their sniper is very good n was the only one who got me out ... twice =\. I need more practice.

Not bad, don't know greenspan but I know some of dynasty's players are pretty decent. Think my old friends team freakshow met up with them awhile back.

I'm just saying tho, you got nothing to worry about pricewise if you have a sponsor but if not, those cases of paint and co2 really adds up. Airsoft bb's not so much and i'm not into that whole competative thing, paintball was much better when everyone was just backyard fun instead of winning and prize money.

I've never paintballed in my life but on my way to work the other day (a whopping 2.5 mile drive), i spotted a paintball field (with all the inflateables) by the side of the highway. I've lived here for 4 years and i've never seen it before. I thought it was pretty neat. Most people around here play with real guns. Every day theres something about a shooting in the paper and this is a small f-ing town.
