Eurogamer PAIN Review

A lot of pain happens to other people in the PlayStation Network game named PAIN. You were probably expecting that. It's been available in the US since late November, but should be launching in Europe and Asia in early 2008.

I loved the movie Nerds in Paradise. That part of the game made me snicker quite a bit. lol

titntin6320d ago

Still waiting for this in the UK! It does look fun:)

mighty_douche6320d ago

they should run the UK store along side the US as we wont have the language problems the rest of Europe will.

Ace-Jury6320d ago

i having quite a bit of fun with it although i'd like to find hints and tips to accompany it.

worth the money however

rayc00136320d ago

i got the game but all i can play is the tutorial its has a lock on the multiplayer and the single player game cant figure it out

Godoftheweek6320d ago

What is it that you dont get about the single player? Post here and I will answer that question and any others that you may have.
I play this game with my 5yr old son on a regular basis and when friends come over. It gets really fun with alcohol. As does the bowling game. Did the EU get the bowling game yet? That one is a MUST buy. Much deeper gameplay and skill is involved than the Wee Bowling game.

Seiseisei....wwwwwhhhhhhhoooo oooooooooooooooo

PAIN Going Free-To-Play On PlayStation 3

Sony and Argentina-based developer QB9 are “reinventing” Pain, first launched on PlayStation 3 via PlayStation Network in 2007, as a free-to-play title, Sony announced at its Brazil Game Show today.

sinncross4206d ago

hmm cool I guess. never played it before so guess i cna try this version out.

Surprised there is no PS4 and/ or PSV version while they were at it.

But cool, will check it out since its free.

PoSTedUP4206d ago

its tons of fun. ive spent hours upon hours on this game back in the day.

Monkeycan84206d ago

Haha it's a blast. It was my first downloaded game ever.

Its theme is good too :P

P.A.I.N, P.A.I.N. PAIN!

FunAndGun4206d ago

Super OOCH!...ooch, ooch, ooch...

WeAreLegion4206d ago

Haha. I highly recommend it to anyone who has never played. So much fun.

5eriously4206d ago

I need some PAIN! Help.

No reason not to give it a try! I am sure my kids will enjoy it immensely!

GenericNameHere4206d ago

It was fun... But then I was bomblasted by billions of updates that took freaking weeks to download. I gave up then.

Afreelunch4205d ago

Yeah they released sooo many updates, and so many levels and modes that were locked behind paywalls, it took up waay too much hard drive space for what it was, and felt like I payed for a free-to-play game anyway. It was fun, but not fun enough for me to keep paying/downloading.

-EvoAnubis-4206d ago

PAIN should have ALWAYS been free-to-play.

Idol Minds, Please Make PAIN 2

If you’ve never heard or played PAIN, the game essentially gives you a giant slingshot and a character to fling around a giant map filled with random objects to cause pain to your character.

ThatKanadianKid4283d ago

Soooo many memories with this game, please do make a sequel I'll buy it day zero.

Prcko4283d ago

pain was so fun and addictive game
i want new one too!

Godmars2904283d ago

Sadly, isn't the only thing left of that studio is some of the senior staff and it's CEO?

Has been a while since I played it. Just haven't felt like - thought of - reinstalling it since replacing my PS3 from YLoD.

doctorstrange4283d ago

Yup, massively downsized and making iOS titles :(

Kiddcarter4283d ago

i liked pain on ps3 and would like a 2nd one, but i really want a pain game (even a port of the first) for ps vita

iceman064283d ago

This would be a great game on the Vita. It's one of those games that you could play in little portions or spend hours just doing mindless, crazy stuff. I wouldn't even mind an expanded port. (just give the DLC stuff)

BoNeSaW234283d ago

Idol Minds is closed. Do not hold your breath for them to develop another PAIN game. Maybe another studio though.

Oh yeah!

Also Rag Doll Kung-fu is an excellent game. Not that long ago when I fired it up.

DeforMAKulizer4359d ago

My friends and I still have countless amounts of fun with Rag Doll. And the video recording, permanently stored some awesome moves and weird glitches on the HDD =D

trenso14359d ago

yea that game was so much fun to play, it was even free a couple of years ago during a promotion.

Panthers4359d ago

Since, from what I understand, PS4 will be a lot easier to program for, I am hoping we can see a lot more games that dont have a huge budget, but great ideas, come to light. Some of the best PS3 games were smaller titles that just exploded onto the scene. Valkyria Chronicles, LittleBigPlanet, DemonSouls, Folklore, ect.

Im glad Sony has such a big focus on indie games with the PS4

Perjoss4359d ago

There's a reason why we forget certain games exist, apart from Folklore, that was a very interesting game.

matrixman924359d ago

dead space ignition was terrible

Cam9774359d ago

I always say this, despite being a decent game, The Saboteur didn't receive the attention it deserved.
