I'm not sure if anyone around here is interested in such things, but Hasbro has released some pics of its new Nerf blaster coming out soon, and it looks freaking sweet:

I was pretty stoked seeing this. I've tinkered with Nerf guns in the past and this thing looks pretty sweet.

Customization. Good example: take off the barrel and you lose accuracy and range, but gain a smaller gun.

And, excuse me, it shoots darts not balls. As can clearly be seen in issue Fourteen of...

Well, guess it's not you guys' cup of tea.

It needs a new skin, it looks too... kiddy like.
It gave me a cool idea though. :confused:

Need to make a mod where you start of having to find a pistol... then later on you can find parts for the pistol which can reduce cone of bullets (don't spread out so much), accuracy, damage and i dunno... looks? :lol:

Yeah, this years color scheme (Yellow with gray highlights) looks about 100% dumber than last year's (Blue with yellow highlights).

can you place guns or enemys in portal maps right now? it would be neat to have to shoot turrets, whatever, while solving portal puzzles.

It is SUPPOSED to look kiddy-like. Its a kids toy. I used to own so many nerf guns. Probably stored away somewhere in my attic. They've gotten somewhat more complex in the past 10 years or so, apparently.

Did I offend you Hober? :sad:
I should have been more precise.
It's marketed for kids. I still play with Nerf guns when I can get my hands on them.

No, I'm not offended. I realize that it's playing with kids toys. But hey, it's my time/money to waste, right?

Plus, I'm trying to get a campus nerf wargame going. Ever heard of Zombies vs Humans?

Jeah I CAN imagine that it's fun to play with them. Since it's a little bit like airsoft/paintball/lasershooting...
