Painkiller

Tired of first-person shooters with so much darn thinkin?? Return to the days of Doom in Painkiller.

FPS games these days seem to fall into two categories: tactical World War II sims and everything else. Painkiller, a game by Polish developer People Can Fly, is clearly in the latter category. You are Daniel Garner, an automobile-accident victim who finds himself in a horrific battle for his soul in the Underworld. Your unholy pact means you can morph into new terrifying shapes after collecting the souls of 100 enemies, but it also means you?ll have to mow down waves of endless bad guys and knock down humungous bosses to save your soul. If you?re worried about having to think too much, don?t?Painkiller is a straightforward shootfest in Hell. Sound familiar, Doom fans? With the ubiquitous HAVOK physics engine and some seriously awesome visuals, Painkiller might be just the remedy you?re looking for.
