A CHAOTIC BLAST!

Loads of fun but I think the maps I played had too many people on them. Most of the maps seem suit about 8-10 players instead of 15-20. ANy way it was still alot of fun. I had a riot with the grav gun! Chucking exploding barrels at people is hilarious!! Cant wait for the squad based games.
