coming soon (when i get the money)...
Red(or black) 04 Impulse with Vision
Strengths:
Good Pro Coverage, lots of great pics...
Weaknesses:
Not alot of new player stuff & the cost
Review:
This magazine is great for people who have played for awhile and like speedball or pro coverage... If your new getting into the sport Id go with APG they have a lot of stuff on new player things. I just got tired of reading the same thing on how to always keep my barrel plug/bag on when im mot playin. I kind of know that by now so it got a little old. I really like Facefull though, great pro coverage and good pics
Conclusion:
Im going to give it a 9 because if you want the new player stuff than it doesnt have it...
Articles, pro coverage, pics, i love the gear bag, it tells what pros travel with.
Weaknesses:
Price its a bit spendy but its a lot thicker than most magazines.
Review:
This magazine rocks, ive tried a lot of others and this one blows them out. The articles are great. Its my favorite. You can usually find it at your local barnes and noble, i also recommend p8nt its good. the gear guide is very in depth in this magazine. Its usually like 7-8 bucks but its worth it.

Review:
My favorite mag, Facefull is the serious player's dream mag. Need results on a recent tourny? Facefulls got it. Need to see how crappy a product is? Facefull's got it. Need some tips on speedball? Facefull's got it. They even got these cool team profiles in there and the interviews of individual players are really funny.
I have to point out the worst issue ever though. The 2004 product reviews. This was just a discrace. It seems like nothing they put down was right. Horrible.
Conclusion:
Best mag out there IMHO. Get it if your at all serious.

Review:
this mag is very quality because of all it has. alot of stories alot of gear and a crap load of pictures. i think they over do it on the pics, but alot of ppl like that. and since it is french, i am stickin with the good ol american Action Pursuit Games and not buying it anymore, but it is a good mag with many interesting things
Conclusion:
Get it if u love paintball as an art or if u just don't like to read, and don't if u dislike the french.

Review:
If you don't like this magazine I'd have Ta say" you crazy." It's just as thick as a book, like 250-300 pages an issue. Good reviews, not like the ones your friend tells you. Lots of pictures of anything paintball. Good tournament coverage too.
If you don't have at least one issue, you haven't lived.

Review:
This paintball magazine is the best i have seen so far. It has so many great pictures every month and articles. Unlike other magazines, this paintball magazine actually talks abut what people what to read, this magazine also features great review on guns every month. The best i have seen so far. The only set back is that this magazine is a little pricey.
Conclusion:
The best paintball magazine that i have read so far.
FaceFull is THE Best paintball mag. They got :
# The BEST pics !
# great articles (even if there're spelling mistakes)
# The only magazine talking about paintball outside the country (who else talk about paintball in Japan ?!)
# more than 200 pages
# best paper
# you can buy it at 7Eleven and Barnes&Nobles

Review:
well i can tell you facefull is one of the best, but i have to agree with the angry women below me. there are way to many ads in the magazine ( like all current pball mags). The magazine has quite a few errors in it (most issues) but has very very good articles in it. its my favorite magazine right now. it has good pictures, something most other magazines lack.
Conclusion:
pretty good magazine. i read it all the time. it has a few good tips in it too

Pure Energy 9 oz. Co2 tank
ACI 6 Stage Sub Zero Expansion Chamber
Strengths:
This magazine is BIG
It provides lots of in-depth information on the sport.
Many parts of it are written by players themselves.
It has nicely done pages (Don't rip instantly)
Really lets you know what's happening in the world of paintball
Bi-monthly
Weaknesses:
$8? It's big, but $8?
So many Ads
What is with those Shopping, Games, and Music pages? It's supposed to be a paintball magazine!
Conclusion:
Overall, this is worth the money. This is a great magazine, and easily outdoes all competitors. Deserving of the 8 dollar price tag.
