The Punisher

Game Page

By , About.com Guide

Description:
From THQ - Frank Castle’s life changed the day his family was murdered. A part of his soul died, too. What was left dedicated the rest of his life to revenge upon the criminal scum of the world. He was reborn as…The Punisher!

Is he a hero? An obsessive madman? His methods are harsh and brutal, striking fear into the darkest hearts of the criminal underworld as he delivers vigilante justice to every thug he can lay his hands on.

The Punisher walks through a world we all know, a world darkened by war, crime, cruelty, and injustice. He has no superpowers – only his fierce intelligence, years of combat experience, and an iron determination to avenge the wronged. Where justice ends, Punishment begins!

From Guide – The Punisher game from THQ is a third person action game based off of the best selling Marvel comic book of the same name. In the game you take the role of the anti-hero The Punisher on his quest to clean the streets of crime. With an original storyline, the game also includes bits of The Punisher’s 30+ year history.

I must note that it is extremely violent and will be sure to get a rated M for Mature. This also seems a big part of the game is this violence with dozens of different ways to “deal with” your enemies and criminals. This is one way the game follows the character and comic exactly.
