The Hive Mind: comparing LTX to Light Strike

A new blog popped up recently relating to Laser Tag, run by an author going by the name of Skurj. There haven't been too many posts just yet, but they've all been quality and quantity. The latest post, I think will be of great interest to those in to the laser tag side of things. Skurj has written an extremely in-depth comparison between the popular LTTO/LTX laser tag system which is very popular among laser tag enthusiasts, and the newer Light Strike system. Light Strike has not received many great reviews so far but as far as a comparison goes, this post is a must read.

The Hive Mind: Light Strike vs. LTX - Pure Opinion

Changing it around!

I'm attempting to make a few changes with this blog, I felt the old red and black background was getting a bit old so I've changed it to this green pattern for the moment, seems kind of fitting with the release of the new Vortex blasters and all. I am also trying to make the ads a little less boring. Yes, I know, ads suck. But buying tons of blasters to review is expensive. As to date, the Adsense ads on the side have earned approximately $2.40 from the time I started this blog. I am assuming that's because the ads aren't really that interesting or relevant, so I will look in to putting amazon ads up instead, and hopefully there will be some good deals for readers. the Max Force ad earns me nothing, and is simply a link to the Max Force site as a thank you for the shadow hawk they sent me to review.

So, this means if you have ANY suggestions, comments, advice or even negative feedback about ads, please leave comment or email me. after all, I run this blog solely to provide content and information to my readers. In other words, if you click on an ad, the money earned from the ad goes directly towards buying a new blaster to review etc. BUT, If you think the ad is in the way or irrelevant or you just don't like it at all, tell me, and I will change things around.

My second blog.

This is just a quick post to announce that I have my second blog up and running, http://rolley-photo.blogspot.com/. It's basically just a blog that I will update a few times a month with my photography work. It will usually be just a bit of camera fiddling to see learn what works and what doesn't, but I will upload some backyard warfare photos from time to time that I haven't loaded here. For example, there's a couple of extra photos of the Max Force Shadow Hawk that I didn't include in yesterday's review.

So anyway, have a look from time to time, and feel free to leave a comment. I'll let you know via this blog when I've added extra Nerf/ Max Force/ lazer tag photos on my photo blog. enjoy!

STW Mobile

just a very brief post to let everyone know, particularly those reading this on PC who also view this blog on the go, that I have updated the blog to use a mobile template when viewed by a mobile device. Hopefully you'll find this easier on iPhone etc. and less impacting on load times and data usage. If you have any feedback for this, it's greatly appreciated whether positive or negative.

Blog: Tactical Tag

Normally, it's unusual for me to find another blog that is based on laser tag, let alone find one with really interesting stuff in it to do with laser tag. But on my searching today, particularly on the Urban Taggers blog, that's what I found. This looks like a relatively new blog, called Tactical Tag, run by someone that goes by the name of Bazookafied. It's a blog mostly about laser tag and Nerf, including mods. One in particular involves turning a Nerf Stampede into a laser tag gun, which I think is pretty damn cool and I might try this one myself if I can get a hold of some laser tag guns over here. Anyway, I'm adding this one to my following list, and I encourage you to check out this blog.
