Downloads punisher

All part of the race to exploit our wayward youth and capture a bit of free publicity in the pages of the Daily Mail. And then, a few months prior to release, THQ went and toned it all down. The Soldier Of Fortune -style dismemberment was removed.

The vicious torture scenes - taking in everything from a Fargo-style encounter with a wood chipper to a kerbside homage to American History X - were burnt out, solarised into a mere suggestion of their former brutality. Marvel's misanthropic antihero, an NRA poster-boy with the most vicious sense of justice this side of an American detention camp had been tamed. Which is great if you're concerned with the moral turpitude of the industry, but it does leave me in a bit of a quandary. You see, toning down the game's sick side has, in a sense, ruined this comic-book shooter.

Without its depraved raison d'etre the game's essential flimsiness is exposed, and the resulting action is as hollow as the tips of The Punisher's vengeful bullets. Ultimately, it's just another generic third-person shooter. To state the obvious for a second, the game casts you as Frank Castle, aka the Punisher.

He's your classic pissed-off psychopath out for revenge on the world because his family was slain by the Mob. Basically, not a happy bunny. The plot occurs in flashback, from a prison cell, as the police reconstruct a particularly violent chapter in the Punisher's life, slashing and burning his way through a crime family in an effort to rid the world of scum.

At this point you might be noticing some parallels with Max Payne 2 to which the game has frequently and generously been compared but The Punisher doesn't enjoy any of that game's finesse: the physics, the slow-motion choreography, the delicately arranged domino explosions. Instead, Volition's effort consists almost entirely of unsubtle room clearing, as you cut your way through hordes of criminals on your way to uncertain revenge.

Admittedly, things are spiced up to some degree by an occasional outburst of cruelty no longer graphic but still nasty and an insubstantial reward system. This revolves around a 'punishment metre' that fills up according to how much pain you dish out in each level and how you go about it. You're rewarded for saving innocents, letting a criminal go when he succumbs to interrogation and not getting shot, but also for being as sadistic as possible in your variety of killing techniques.

Options include shooting people, throwing them out of windows, performing quick executions, knifing them through the face in 'rage' mode or torturing them to death in the show-stopping interrogation scenes. As a concession to decency, the latter actually loses you points, though in some cases you're rewarded with a brief cut-scene, so it goes both ways. Ironically, The Punisher may have been a better game if it were more offensive.

As it stands, the only affront is how bland and repetitive it is and how heavily it relies on violent gimmickry. It's attempted to follow in the footsteps of games like Manhunt , but it hasn't even managed to get the controversy right, and the result is not worth getting worked up about in any fashion.

The stench is everywhere. But now Jigsaw and his band of drug lords will be taught a lesson in justice - Punisher-style! There's nowhere for them to hide.

Packing his M60 machine gun, nitro-charged grenades and heat-seeking rockets, The Punisher will hunt them down from the urban New York jungle to the voodoo-infested wilds of South America With Spider-Man at his side, hundreds of enemies will be given the Ultimate Payback!

This arcade translation is in the mode of a Final Fight , you take your character and run from left to right beating up all in sight. You can also play a two-player mode, where you can the cigar smokin' Nick Fury.

We haven't played this one yet, but when we do we'll let you know if The Punisher deserves a good spanking or not. Right from the start, you realize this isn't a game for wimps. As Frank Castle, alias "The Punisher", you embark on a hunt for drug dealers at the local shopping mall. Pretty soon you're embroiled in a furious gunfight with bullets and bodies flying everywhere. The Punisher subtitled "The Ultimate Payback" is based on a Marvel Comics character who seeks perpetual revenge for the gangland murder of his family.

But this game is really a carnival-style shooting gallery. Rather than ducks and rabbits on a conveyor belt, your targets are gun-toting drug thugs at a suburban shopping mall, a marina, an airport, a jungle, and a secret enemy hideout.

Everything takes place from a first-person point of view - you never see your own character. Instead, you move a gun sight around the screen to aim your shots and throw grenades. And like the targets in a shooting gallery, the action scrolls steadily from right to left. At first you're armed with a slow-firing pistol.

But some bad guys leave behind power-ups when they're shot, so you can collect ammo clips, grenades, machine guns, bulletproof vests, first aid kits, additional lives, and rocket launchers. The bulletproof vests reduce the injury you suffer from enemy gunshots, and the first aid kits restore your energy.

In fact, power-ups are hidden everywhere in this game, so you're encouraged to spray bullets at shop windows, elevators, parked airplanes, wooden crates, storage barrels - you name it. However, don't shoot the innocent bystanders, who are weirdly unaware of all the gunplay. At the mall, for instance, you'll see women shoppers looking for bargains; at the marina, fishermen are sitting lazily on the docks.

If you gun down a bystander, you're penalized half the energy on your life meter. Spider-man, another Marvel Comics character, makes a cameo appearance in stage 1 to help you rescue some hostages. If you accidentally shoot a hostage, the web- slinger will scold you.

The Punisher offers good graphics and lots of fast action. If the high body count doesn't bother you, this is one of the best shooting games you'll find for the Game Boy.

When mobsters gunned down Frank Castle's family, he pledged vengeance. Now his pledge has expanded into a one-man war against crime.

An ex-Marine and former police investigator, Castle is now The Punisher. Equipped with the best weapons money can buy, this avenger's hallmarks include a bad temper and high body counts. The justice he dispenses is rude and brutal. In The Punisher, the popular Marvel Comics character is the star of his own fast-action Nintendo game. He's pitted against Kingpin, a gangster who is at the core of crime in the Big Apple.

On his way to Rikers Island, where Jigsaw is waiting, The Punisher has to rid New York City of a wide variety of nuisances - tanks, helicopters, soldiers, and ninjas. Fortunately, our modern-day Lone Ranger has hardware that even Rambo would envy - grenades, rockets, a machine gun, and countless rounds of ammunition.

As you fight your way through the game, you must also keep an eye out for first aid kits, bulletproof vests, extra ammo, and additional lives. To grab them, all you have to do is what comes naturally to The Punisher - blast 'em as soon as they appear.

Unlike the comic book series, the Nintendo game features no intrigue, which means there's little need for strategy or thoughtful deliberation. All you really have to do is keep your finger on the trigger and destroy everything that pops up.

Brute force rules the day. When facing Kingpin's henchmen, ignore the advice offered by the instruction manual: Don't engage in hand-to-hand combat, despite The Punisher's reputation for fisticuffs.

Fire from a distance whenever possible. The crisp graphics, though not stunning, are good enough to let you identify what's happening on the screen. That's crucial, since detecting enemies as soon as they appear is your only chance of survival. Overall, The Punisher is a good-quality game with no major flaws. But if you already have a favorite shooter, you'll find no new territory here.

You are Frank Castle, a. Your family was wiped out by drug lords, and you've dedicated your life to getting revenge - Punisher style! The worst of them all, Jigsaw, has started a huge drug operation that affects even young children at the local mall.

The Thing Win Black Dahlia Win That's right! The Punisher! You are hard-boiled crime fighter Frank Castle on a mission to exterminate the Kingpin and his men whose drug and weapons trafficking are scrumming up the streets of New York City. The Punisher is an uncomplicated, straightforward game that won't tax your brains. You start off by choosing one of four minor crime bosses to eliminate. Once you've selected a boss to hunt, you're armed with your famous Automatic Machine Pistol, rounds of ammunition, and three grenades.

ProTip: Shoot everything in sight to find hidden objects such as the Automatic Assault Rifle, grenades, extra lives, Kevlar bullet-proof vests, and even a first aid kit. This game's run and shoot all the way. Each boss rules a rough piece of turf, which you have to fight through to get him.

For example, Jigsaw has taken over Ryker's Island Prison, which is located in the middle of a bay. Only after defeating the four minor bosses do you get a chance to eliminate Kingpin.

If you liked shoot-em-ups such as Operation Wolf, Cabal, and Dynamite Duke, then give this one a try. Who says crime doesn't play? Where player controls the role of punisher. He has to win different levels by attacking enemies present at different locations.
