BXB Community Day 2007

Paintball. It's for pussies. If you want to find out what war is really like then you'll have to join Britxbox.co.uk's latest Community Day in association with Warfighters.

Warfighters is so damn realistic and exciting that we're not even bothering to get any Xbox 360s at the event because, frankly, it'd distract from driving around in hummers and tanks. BXB's Community Day 2007 is the chance to have a go at the latest war simulation as well as putting faces to the names of people in the Community you visit every day.

BXB's 2007 Community Day will be taking place on Friday August 31st at Willoughby near Rubgy in Warwickshire just a few miles away from J17 of the M1 and will begin at 9:30am and run until 4:30pm. Click here for maps and pictures of the events locaion.

The day will cost you £49.99, which includes a £10 discount on the full price and for your money you'll get a whole day of combat action without any of the hidden costs of paint ball or the bruises. For more information on what you get for your money, check out the Warfighters FAQ.

Michael Rossell, Editor and Events Manager said: “So, I bet you're asking why there aren't any Xbox 360s at this event? Well, to be honest, we got fed up of lugging massive TVs around and getting funny looks from attractive female sports students and decided to do something a bit more exciting than camping out in a darkened room for 11 hours.

“Warfighters is awesome. I was lucky enough to go to the recent Ubisoft GRAW 2 press day at Warfighters and was treated to a short taster of what it's like and I've got to say I really enjoyed it.

“The idea behind this Community Event is that it's like one of those annoying “Team Building” days you get sent on with your job except it's more exciting because you actually want to meet the people you'll be going with. It's a chance to put a face to the voice of your best Xbox Live buddy and secure ultimate bragging rights by shooting them in a very realistic combat scenario.”

Dave Thatcher, a slightly scary dude from Warfighters said: “Prepare for a challenging day of GRAW like missions and team objectives that will test your online gaming skills in the real world to the max!”
