Painkiller: Pain relief for 'DOOM'ed gamers.
by theuerkorn | Jul 19 '04
Pros: great graphics, good sound, intense gameplay, great variety, performance on medium hardware requirements
Cons: what it claims to be, a shooter (not exactly educational), some jumping puzzles too difficult

Jason, thanks a lot. When you are looking for Painkiller in the store, don't go by the box art that's currently displayed in Epinions, the real thing looks much different. ;-)

I only played the demo for Far Cry and even though there is slightly more depth to it, I found Painkiller to be insanly enjoyable. (and frustrating when certain areas seem inaccessible for my limited skills)

If I had the MH button, I would use it! Great review, Thomas, of a game I have never heard of previously. I just got Far Cry with my new 6800 video card, and it is fairly challenging so far... Thanks for the heads up!
