The game looked promising enough after seeing all the trailers and hype that went along with the game. It appeared to be slam packed full of goodies for a PSN game and at 10 bucks to boot what could go wrong.
Sadly a lot went wrong with the game. The first disappoint came in the single player aspect of the game. I was given the impression the game would have a strong single player element to it but silly me for thinking that. Turns out the single player aspect is nothing more than an introduction to all the different multiplayer types on the different maps the game has to offer with a comic story line tossed in the middle of it. Very similar to how Unreal 3 handled its single player. The game is meant to focus on the multiplayer side of it and to be honest it could do without the single player side at all. Playing the single player side will unlock characters and weapons for you to use but really there is no advantage to one character over the other..."

Joystick Division looks at ten moments in video games that straddle the line between enhanced interrogation and torture.
From Dramsettler's: "The Punisher is and will always be one of the most badass hardcore hero in the Marvel universe. His guns and blood thirst for revenge makes him appeal to appeal because most of us will never let out our anger like this guy. A few years ago The Punisher game was relasesd and it wowed us with its extensive use of violence and good storyline behind it. Everyone was excited that a new Punisher game was coming out. Then they said it was going to be realaesed as a PSN arcade game.Cool. With the usage of Unreal engine and just the Punisher license how could they fuck this up....right?"
