Greg Hastings Tournament Paintball MAX’D (GHTP) is an E10+ rated, action sport, first person shooter developed by The Whole Experience, under joint venture with Paintball Players Productions, LLC, and published by Activision on Xbox, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, and PlayStation 2. MAX’D is the sequel to Greg Hastings Tournament Paintball (2004 Xbox).
The console version of GHTP Max’d maintains most of the same control elements of the original game. (Players can shoot, reload, run, crouch, lay down, stand, and switch marker hands) In addition, it is now possible to press a button (or used voice recognition) to give commands while on the field. New additions include ten more tournaments than the original, bringing the total to 29. Also, 12 new markers have been added to the selection.
Two main features of the game that differ from its predecessors are the “breakout manager” and the “create a field”. Now the user can set which bunkers and what shooting styles his or her teammates will exhibit on the break using a screen that is displayed before the action begins. It is also now possible to play through the career mode with up to three friends in split-screen co-op.
