Never heard of Photon, but it looks cool.<BR/><BR/>I've played many different laser-based tag games at various commercial arenas in different parts of the U.S., and I have to say that <I>Laser Eclipse</I> is the best one I've yet experienced. It includes a multi-level, tiered combat ramp in the center of the arena, lots of crates and obstacles to take cover behind, and of course the requisite smoke and blaring hard rock music. The neatest feature Laser Eclipse has to offer is a group of stations (called Gems) scattered about the arena. At the Gems you can buy upgrades such as Rapid Fire, which turns your laser into a sweeping beam of devastation when you hold the trigger down, and Invisibility, which turns off all the lights on your pack. And if you don't have enough points to purchase the upgrade, the Gem zaps you with its own laser in retaliation.<BR/><BR/>One time, I got a little two enthusiastic during a Laser Eclipse match and I ended up walking face-first into a crate, stunning myself and destroying my pack in the process. I felt rather bad about damaging a $5000 piece of equipment and was going to say I was sorry, but since I was bleeding from a cut above my eye, the shift manager apologized <I>to me</I> and offered me a pass for a free game. :-)Gooberzillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523854587427187333noreply@blogger.com
