Yeah I know what you mean, so much fun looking at them all in Japan

Good thing about nerf is, you can at least get away without any serious injuries (excluding drunken combat rolls into furniture/walls). Also easier to clean up than a shitload of bb gun pellets meaning it's a bit better for the environment both inside and outside!

You know I've never considered the environmental impact of BB pellets! I wonder if they're degradable or if they'll still be hanging around in 10,000 years.. imagine the future humans wondering WTF they were used for, haha.

Airsoft is a great sport, significantly cheaper and cleaner than paintball with a huge range of weapons of just about every sort you can imagine from pistols, SMG's, assault rifles, sniper rifles, it's really amazing and due to the fact they all operate pretty similar you can play with whatever you want, I was watching a video earlier today and one guy was using an MP40 and the next guy was using a K98, and anotehr guy was using an M4..

It looks great, but will never happen in Australia due to the knee jerk cry of the ignorant.. "TOY GUNS TRAIN PEOPLE TO KILL".

My old airsofts (1911, IMI Uzi & Desert Eagle) were awesome fun back in the day. I have no idea where they went after high school though (we're talking 8 odd years ago).

Yeah I don't think it would be difficult to procure one.. but without a league of any sort, whats the point? I mean yeah they are fun, Dad bought me one when I was a kid a Beretta 92FS that was good fun, but it broke after a few years. I love paintball, but the restrictions as such a pain in the ****, markers are expensive, and it's messy as hell.

I'd hop on the airsoft band wagon in a heartbeat if they'd legalize it, but Australia is very anti fun -.- Can you imagine the CoD fanboys we could own? None of that backwards spinning quickscope airshot ****..

4x Leather Home Theatre recliners.. Hard to tell from my image but colour is chocolate.

[Ashigaru]

[oriXon]

Yea not too shabby for a home setup done on the cheap..

Yeah Japan is ridiculous for the snow. Just like Slaine, this year was my 5th year anniversary of my Japanese love affair. Worked at Nozawa Onsen Ski Resort 5 years ago (couple of hours drive from Hakuba to put it in perspective).

Here's a little video I put together from this year's snowboarding



Was truly a bag of fun!

I still haven't hit the back country, haven't quite got the skills to back it up yet, but its on the to do list.

But was thinking of grabbing a pole mount for my contour for the next trip for some more angles. what was it like to ride with it? Annoying, cumbersome, or you didn't really notice and used it all the time?

[Ashigaru]

I learnt pretty quickly to pop it in the backpack when you're just traversing around, setting up a run. The big long run you see after the fireworks was probably the third run down that valley, and I'd hit it a few times in the past. Still, it's not as bad as you think As long as the camera and pole setup isn't too heavy then it's all good

Spec Ops: The Line and Syndicate - $44-ish all up

[SaNE]

Let us know how intrusive GFWL is for Spec Ops.

[Novocaine]

Let us know how intrusive GFWL is for Spec Ops.

Wouldn't it be just like all other GFWL games? DLC, MP and activation would all be tied into GFWL.

Also this, because it's stylin', and my wallet is all torn up.

Shall do, I plan on giving it a proper go this weekend!
