| Review: |
Not a very good magazine if your looking for anything to do with playing paintball. This magazine pretty much revolves around whats going on in the paintball world. Its kind of nice to buy it on the occasion though. Iv'e gotten two great issues out of about seven horrible ones. There just dosen't seem to be the right amount of information in this magazine to be worth subscribing to. I hate the over sized pictures and ads. They should make this magazine a catalog with all the freigen ads it has! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Way to many ads, not enough coverage on playing, good review of paintball world, way way to many ads, not enough product reviews, and did I mention to many ads. It gets a five because of the horrible over use of ads. |

| Review: |
its a good magizine to read if your into paintball... im not sure on the price bc i won my subscription at a tournament.... i like pb2x and facefull 100 times better... but this mag is well worth your time if you want to read about whats hapening in the world of paintball.... it covers tournys and rec it has reviews on new and "retro" equpiment...
its a decent mag to read |
|

| Review: |
Well, I bought a bunch of back issues for the past year, and they were very, very poor. Image and paper quality was low, content was uninspired. In a world overstuffed with paintball magazines that compete for even the most trivial and poor content, this one is not needed. I'm not sure what the point is. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would pass in favor of Facefull (for cool people and tournament players) or APG for recreational players. Most magazines get a 4. This gets a 3. |
