With Nerf's 2PK Lazertag System, you can finally have your own intense laser battles at home with your friends! Designed for ages eight and up, the PHOENIX LTX taggers have plenty of movement and sounds to keep your battles exciting and interesting. Your gun rumbles, recoils, and reloads while you zone in on your opponent and aim for the score. 
The guns are colorful and have a classic Nerf look. View larger. | Fun Lights, Sounds, and Vibrations
To start the game, simply push the side power/game type switch. Be sure to agree on a strength level with all players before starting, because it cannot be changed once the game begins! The two guns are equipped and ready for battle with a rumble pack vibration that lets you know when you've been hit, a recoil feature that is activated with every fired shot, and a force-field style shield that will protect you from any incoming fire! The shield gives you that extra couple needed moments to aim with precision, and help you hit your target with accuracy. As a side note: We recommend always holding your gun with both hands since they are heavy and could break if dropped repeatedly. Fun For All Ages
The taggers are colorful and outfitted with so many neat sounds, lights, and vibrations, even the adults will be trying to join in on the intense laser battling fun. The shield is such a great addition to the PHOENIX LTX's as well, giving players an extra chance to load up and aim, or get away during a heavy pursuit. What's in the Box
Two PHOENIX LTX Taggers. (Batteries not included.)

 A TON of fun, especially in larger groups November 9, 2009

This is an excellent product that is a lot of fun for many ages. Thanks to this unit we have an active club going strong. Forgive the long review, but this unit deserves it in my mind.
Pros
Fun - It is a blast, especially in groups. This really is for adults as well as kids, and if you get a group of people together to do this, you will have a blast. There are many videos of people playing with this and previous generations on Youtube. Search 'Phoenix LTX', 'Tagfest', 'Lazer Tag Team Ops', and you'll probably find a lot.
Range - These taggers (guns) have a range of about 350-400 feet, maybe further (maybe a bit less in bright sun).
Features - These taggers have several features to enhance the playability. a) 10 or 25 tags - you can set a switch to set your 'life' at 10 or 25 tags. This can help balance some scenarios where differences in numbers or age/experience might make things unfair. b) Indoor/outdoor mode - this helps reduce the sensitivity of the receivers - reduces splash damage you get while playing inside. The IR signal can reflect off walls and make it pretty easy to take hits, even around corners and off your clothing. c) Accessory connectors for more options (see below) d) Realistic reload - you drop a fake 'clip' out of the bottom of the grip, much like an ammo clip. e) realistic recoil - there is a hammer that lights up and pops out a little with each shot, and also a vibration with each shot/hit that add to the experience.
Accessories - There is already a shotgun attachment developed, as well as a green dot site. These slide on to connectors on the tagger to give additional capabilities. There are also rumors of more weapon attachments in the pipeline. There was also a video game accessory to let you play 1 player vs. the computer on a TV, but it was pretty useless, and you probably won't see that any more. If you play with the older LTTO style taggers, you can actually join games hosted by the older taggers.
Exercise - Depending on your gameplay style, you can get as much exercise out of it as you want. The range on these guns is hundreds of feet (a bit less in full sunlight), so you can easily get winded running around inside the playable area.
Eductional - I know - it's a shooter game... but it teaches basic strategy, tactics, and teamwork, and even the younger kids are starting to pick up some of these concepts.
Durability/Battery life (cost of ownership) - The taggers (guns) are very rugged - if you compare the cost of the system with a commercial lazer tag rental facility- you will make your money back in a couple of sessions of playing, and these taggers last a long time. We are still using all of the taggers we bought over the year, though some of them are developing glitches. Battery life is also very good - even with rechargeables (which seem to be a little less effective, but much cheaper in the long run), the batteries will last several sessions of playing.
Online Communities - Very active online community (there's several newsgroups including an active one on Yahoo, search for 'Lazer Tag Team Ops'). The user community and the available technical information on the web opens the door for tech-minded to tear them down and 'mod' them to give them additional features. You may have to solder some stuff, clip some wires, or similar, but some of this is pretty cool. Even me, the solder-novice - has gotten into this a little bit with a few minor mods.
Interaction with others - You can play team-based games of 2 teams. The largest game we had was 36 players at once and it was a bit chaotic, but fun.
Cons -
Can't change the brightness of the LEDs - these are EXTREMELY bright while playing at night, and not only can this effect your aiming, but it gives away your position. We find 2 layers of scotch tape colored with black sharpie work well to dim it down a bit.
Joining hosted games is painful - Mostly a complaint about interacting with older taggers - joining LTTO hosted games is clunky at best.
Lack of Attachments - This is not a failing in the unit, but this particular packaging. This set is a re-offering of the original LTX, which came out last year, but this set has been rebranded under the Nerf brand. Unlike last year's model, this set is sold without the green dot sight and 'shot blast' attachment (at a lower price, granted). I believe it's their intention to sell the attachments separately, but they are not on shelves yet. In this economy, that may not happen if the interest in the line doesn't improve. That would be a complete shame, since this is one of the coolest 'toys' I've ever played with.
Awesome! November 4, 2009

My 12 yr old son loved playing Lazer Tag at our local Lazer tag center for his birthday. His friends have this system (last year's model)and because it comes with two taggers, someone would get left out. So, I got this and now they have 2 on 2 battles outside and even in the house. This system is awesome! Very accurate.
Great gift January 17, 2010

I bought this toy for my kids, one is 17 and the other is 12, and they love it. They play with it often. They had friends over last night and they were playing it in the house (there is a switch that lets you choose indoor and outdoor), then they carried it outside. They had kids from 19 all the way down to 12 playing, and they all said how cool the lazer tag is! I think we are going to buy another set so that they can play in groups! One thing the kids really like is that you don't need to wear a vest! This was definitly one of the best gifts I've bought lately. It gets the kids up, out and moving, and they have a blast!!
Best Christmas purchase! December 29, 2009

Of all the gifts I got for my daughter...these guns are the best decision I made! Adults will have just as much fun with these cool guns as kids! I play with my daughter, and we have a blast! I intend to get one more set so we can play teams with others.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Lot's of fun for all ages and great exercise too! January 18, 2010

We purchased 2 sets of these for a total of 4 guns. We are having so much fun as a family with these. Weather permitting, we all play with them outside and get lots of exercise running around! My husband and I play with our 7 and 5 year old. The 7 year old has this gun down pat and finds it easy to shoot and reload. The 5 year old still has trouble aiming and reloading, but he loves the noise that it makes. My husband and I have enjoyed joining them in this game and we love that there are no foam bullets to pick up when we are done or when we need to reload!!! I highly recommend this product!
