Tech-Gaming: "Once the player selects a character, there are five modes of play: career mode, quick play, exhibition mode, dynasty training skills and also a field creator. Career offers players the ability to evolve your team's abilities through a succession of speedball tournaments. Additionally, success allows the player to buy different equipment, although we noticed little performance difference between the default and more expensive gear. Both quick play and exhibition allow the eager player to quickly drop into a match; exhibition allows play on five woodsball maps, as well as the title's user-generated maps."
Does videogame paintball match up to the real thing? Kyle Orland can tell you after he gets splattered again.
Few things resemble real-life videogames quite like paintballing: 1) You dress like a member of Half-Life's Combine; 2) It's the only time hiding in ferns is acceptable; and 3) You actually get to shoot real living humans. And they bleed. Albeit in blue. For all intents and purposes, it's COD 4's Chernobyl level sponsored by Dulux. So why oh why is Millennium Paintball as enjoyable as a shot in the eye?

"In my younger years, a kid who lived up the street, let's call him "Bad Pete," had a bright idea involving some frozen Gobstopper candies and his paintball gun. The giant purple welts that followed were far, FAR more painful than playing this game, but not by much."
