what about for us guys who shoot phantoms? Will there be a loader adaptor for us? What barrel adaptor will there be? And how about for us whom shoot mag fed pistols like tiberius?

[pblivetv]

@NightStrike91 There are people already making adapters for some markers and I'm sure there will be more available once .50 caliber is on the market for a bit.

good interview...hey does anyone kno if greg hastings 2 is coming out or did it get cancelled? the paintball game that is out rite now for x360 (champaionship 09) is GARBAGE

[pblivetv]

@xdynomitex85 Greg just posted on his Facebook page today that he's going to have GHTP2 available to playtest at the events he's going to in 2010!

We'll get him back on the show in the beginning of the year and get some footage of the game if possible.

We had 50 cal paintballs before and they were phased out in favor of the 68. Now SP (GI Milsim) and other companies are relying on the fact that this generation of Paintballers don't know that they're being sold old technology as new. If you think this is better, you're a sucker.

[blackandblacker]

Yeah im okay. Im sticking with .68 cal paintballs. Chris Im really okay with my luxe right now and i dont want you to tell everyone hey lets use these shitty little paintballs and make everyone have to switch up their guns because you say that its so good. The only reason why you are saying that 50 cal is so good is because you are getting paid. We all know its going to be less accurate, and its just retarded. So shut up and keep playing.

@wifimonkey that's actually a good point, wouldn't a heavier fill paint make .50 perform more like .68? That is if it could still mark as well...

[wifimonkey]

From a business stand point and the way the economy is (atm) I can see the .50 taking over the .68 due to material cost. The downfall if .50 became the standard and the demand goes up the price will also go up. I will give .50 a shot but I only ask you to fill them with lead so when they hit me I say ouch! and not hey I think this hit me in the penis did it? I can't tell, as with .68 dude I'm hit in the penis carry me off the field!

oh Chris, i bet it wouldn't have hurt him as much if u executed him with a .50 cal paintball. hope u burn in a hole.
