Reminds me of that vest you wore during FPS games, that when you got shot, it’d hit you on your chest where you got shot, get shot in the back, get hit in the back IRL.

Why would you want to get beaten up by a computer? You’d get out of a gaming session and people would think you just got into a fight from all the bruises.

I still don’t see why that tech never caught on in the lazer tag area… then again if you want to feel the hits most people just go paintballing or speedballing

$190 is a bit steep… =/

Besides, looking around with that thing does seem awkward. It’s almost as if it’s backwards. Since it’s on a curve and if you push to the left, and then aim right as an effect, it doesn’t make sense for the game to turn left.

Yeah I get what you mean. From the videos however it seems as though you slide it from side to side (as though you were using a mouse from above) rather than rotate it.

Because laser tag is geared towards all audiences, including children. I’m guessing the staff of laser tag doesn’t want to deal with 20 screaming children that got punched in the nuts by a vest that was just a little bit too big for them.

And in the master’s chambers, they gathered for the feast.
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can’t kill the beast!
