Hmm, I'm pretty hard to please guy..I like Punisher.. I think it kinda reminds me of Max Payne.. you know sometimes the gfx dont make a game but this game has a good story, it's worth the buy..

I agree with you x. I enjoyed Punisher a lot. I suggest this game to anyone that enjoys fast paced shooters. If you don't want to shell out the 50 bucks for it, atleast give it a try from Blockbuster or Gamefly.com for a week.

just to add to my previous comments. Not trashing HX, just saying I think he plays down the graphics in his review a wee bit much. I don't find the graphics seriously lacking at all. The game does look good, environments look good and the characters too.. The physics is based on HAVOK. Correct my if I am wrong, but havok is in Max Payne, is in HL2.. Sure not to same degree maybe, but there is good physics.. The AI..well it's not bad either.. I like when they run behind boxes and shoot. I don't know.. I just find this review doesn't justify the game as much as it should and it's discredited in areas I believe were pretty good. But anyhow.. I think its a great and addictive game.. story good, voices great and gfx are pretty damn good. I wouldn't go so far as dated.. Not every game is going to take advantage of all the whistles and bells, especially a game there will likely be followups too. Anyhow..I like it, gonna play it some more tonite.
