NPPL Championship Paintball 2009
SCORE: 56
Our first born son used his chore money to purchase NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 on the Wii. He asked me to play and review this game because he wants others to learn from his mistake. This is a paintball game that feels like it was just slapped together at the last minute trying to make some money off of the popularity of the activity.
I played paintball in a variety of different places in my life. I have played in the woods, and in man made structures. The man made structures are okay, but not as good as the woodland courses. NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 is all man made. Which would not be so bad if it were not so limited. Most of the courses in NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 feel the same. There are mild variations here and there, but not enough to warrant the price of admission.
Families will also lose time on a substandard product with NPPL Championship Paintball 2009. There are better and safer paintball games out there. The lyrics in the songs as well as the bad language are two of the biggest problems in NPPL Championship Paintball 2009. Why was that needed? Why aren’t we given an option to listen to safe for the family music?
The next biggest problem with NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 are the controls. They are loose, way too loose. It is easy to get tagged with paintballs in NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 while trying to figure out how to control the game. I hit other players only out of luck. I failed at lining up shots over and over again due to the touchy controls. This led to frustration and real world anger.
The lack of diversity in NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 is bad, but having only a few courses to play on is even worse. I could create my own stadiums with the very limited tools this game has. That was actually more fun than actually playing NPPL Championship Paintball 2009.
Only one family
member can play on a team in NPPL Championship Paintball 2009 at a time.
The game lets you cheat, and rewards it if you are successful.
