We be Laser Taggin




I haven't been seeing the bloggers for far too long since I came back from Switzerland and before that was during Zoukout in Singapore so when I got word that Advertlets was doing a Laser Tag outing I told Jason that if he didn't reserve my spot he's gonna get one non-dirty kind of spanking haha kidding! Well point8cam was to shoot the event so why not if I joined as well, right? And we all know that it's Barney Stinson's favourite game! haha Arrived at Midvalley about 10am-ish for him to scout the area to know what to shoot and all and we headed to the viewing deck to see other games. Damn, it looked like Ministry of Sound or Zouk in a glance  ;P


Laser Tag first started in 1986 (a year before I was born) by Worlds of Wonders. Using the laser 'gun', players can shoots sensors worn by other players on their suit to tag them. It's like playing the normal "kejar-kejar" or "tag, you're it" when you were little but with laser guns (did they use it during the AFF Suzuki game?lol). However, WOW ceased business and stopped production in 1988. However, ten years after, Tiger Electronics licensed the brand and began producing the equipment for laser tag. Now, laser tag is commonly played throughout United States and now it's here in Midvalley Megamall (just beside Celebrity Fitness):

If you like playing Left4dead, COD or Counter Strike, I'm sure you'll like this one..unless you're not keen on moving and running around the place. It does get pretty tiring for such a geeky game, but it's all good exercise nevertheless.



How does it work? Well, the computerized targeting device wielded by a player commonly emits a brief infrared beam which carries an identifying signal, and the target records the signal when they are hit by the beam. 



The computer system provides score tracking as well as enforcing some rules of engagement - spawn periods like in Dota, scoring and upgrading to machine gun mode when you've shot 3 frags in a row without getting hit.




The bloggers were divided into 4 teams lead by me (Team Charlie), Josh (Team Alpha), Jason (Team Beta) and Melanie (Team Delta).






We played two types of games. First was a free shooting - means that all of us were to roam around and everyone's just your enemy and the second one was teams versus mode. On the individuals I was the 6th on the board and on the teams I was the 2nd...not bad eh? hahah *angkat bakul sendiri* P


Ignore my concentrating face  -_-"


Anyways, they don't just offer maps for the games but they also do have party packages in which you can have your birthday party, your child's birthday party or even your grandma's birthday party!!! hahah details for the package is here - PARTY PROMO





point8cam still had the biggest gun -_-"  (no, I didn't mean it THAT way you dirty minded chiggas you!)


Thanks Advertlets, I surely had fun!


If you're interested to try and play, rates are as follows -





I think we were quite pumped that day that most of us continued with two sets of bowling! Talk about being healthy lol



I can't believe I survived through healthy games cause I'd usually be the one sitting in front of the computer and clicks mouse and kill frags, you see  =P
