 This is a dream come true for paintball fans. March 10, 2005

Well, when I first got this game, I was happy before taking it out of the box because I knew it would be so much better than the previous paintball games that I played. Ultimate Paintball Challenge puts the F back in fun. I mean, this game is very challenging, since it took me quite awhile just to pass one level. Your team mates are no where near as dumb like in the previous paintball games, because once you tell them to go defend, assult, or follow, they actually do it instead of running into brick walls. I also like the fact that the AI ain't dumb either. They can come right at you from no where and shoot at you like crazy. Even better, you can set how hard it is to get one person out by changing the difficulty levels, but even better, you can determine how many times they need to get shot before they get out which REALLY makes this game worthwhile. Talk about great music to go with the background as well, It actually sounds like your in a warzone in the Military level while you're playing. Plus when your in the Jail level, the music sounds as if someone just broke out of a jail. Each level is also neatly textured, with lots of hidden locations to get several stealth shots in there. The weapons are definently worthwhile, since each weapon gets better and better as you pay more money for them. The paint grenades are very fun to use as well, but they do tend to get thrown in the wrong direction at several points. You can also customize what your team's outfits look like, which is also a great feature in this game. I am quite surprised on how no one really gave this game a good review, cause this game left me on the computer for several hours, and I didn't get tired of it at all. Overall, I really recommend this game to everyone who loves first person shooters, cause Ultimate Paintball Challenge will leave you on the computer for hours.

This is a good shooter but it is very short. Infact I took 3 or 4 hours and beat the whole tournament season, there is a medium sized range of markers to choose from, but you have to basically beat the whole tournament bracket to be able to buy the "best" marker. When you get this marker you find that you can waste a large amount of paint very, very fast. On and average round that will last me about 3-5 minutes, I can shoot 300+ rounds. Not to mention it is not in the slightest realistic, you can fire near 1000 rounds and not even chop 1 ball! and this isn't just the Grim Reaper(best marker) but on the very first marker you can buy which is basically a paintball pistol, the computer equivalent to a Brass Eagle. On the issue of Graphics, take Doom 1 graphics make them 3D and you basically have the "High-Quality graphics" that this game claims to have. Even though the box states "Harness an all-new, full 3-D engine, which delivers vivid graphics ...". This is a flat out lie, unless this game was made in 1995 or so, which it was released in 2000. All in all, this game is fun for maybe a week then when you beat the whole tourny w/o even getting a tie (not that hard ai ...), then you will probably want to go and crack the CD into a million pieces and never buy another paintball game.
