Paintball and FPS games
If you like first person shooters, you should try paintball.

Now why am I saying that? First of all there are many similarities between fps games and actual game of paintball. It is already proven that playing consistently first person shooters will sharpen your hand eye coordination and will give you excellent reaction time.

Say, you are a king of Counter-Strike or Battlefield, wouldn’t you want to try it in real life? Of course, I’m not talking about dropping everything and going to your Army recruiter. There are easier ways to test your skills. I’m talking about or even airsoft games, though airsoft usually more expensive to play then paintball.

For you to get into the you do not have to buy a twelve hundred dollar gun. I personally had good experience with Icon X guns; you can find them for about forty to seventy dollars. These guns are very reliable and run completely on air, no electronic parts. There is also no need to buy expensive paint balls; I get mine from Wal-Mart, make sure you get the ones that come in red box. Don’t forget to wear at least two layers of clothing, mask or a helmet and you will be good to go.
Get couple of your buddies, find a park or just a nice wooded area to play, and you have your instant first person shooter game in real life. Use to show

off your skills or maybe even learn some team playing skills for your next online fps game. By the way, if you really get into and decide to do scenario type of gaming, you can always upgrade to Tipmann A-5 gun because of looks and reliability and modification side of it.

Couple things about airsoft; those guns based on shooting plastic bbs. Good airsoft gun will go for $200 or higher. Also, airsoft based on honor system. If you get shot, you have to call it out. Unlike paintball, it is not always obvious that you managed to get somebody. Airsoft gun design and appearances also based on real guns, so some areas do not allow ownership of airsoft guns.

Another good reason to get into or airsoft is physical aspect of it. Instead of being a complete couch potato you can get a nice workout by playing real life fps game. Trust me, whether it is leapfrogging or just sprinting to the enemy base, you will get your heart pumping on excitement of being under fire alone.

Play for any of these reasons, or play it because it could be lots of fun.
