when this game came out i ran to the store and bought it and loved it.first thing i thought was cool was the voiceovers and our vigilante is played by none other then tom jane.Also wat i found great about this game was the interigations there are over 100 different ways to interigate sombody.THe story line is unbelievable it makes so much sense.Each gun you get in this game you could upgrade from laser aiming to silencer and even to a grenade launcher on it.so i want everybody with a ps2 or xbox to gat this game
BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just couldn't get into this game. It started out a real interesting game, but as I reached the next level and so on, I realized nothing is really different than the first level other than the background. The only interesting thing about advancing in this game is that each level has one or two different ways to kill someone than the previous level, but it can only be done in certain spots of the map. Otherwise, killing your enemies is the same thing over and over. This is pretty much for the die-hard Punisher fan. I'm glad I rented before I bought.
peer excellence

This game is awesome. I had it for X-box before I lost it in a fire, and I had to get it back. As a huge Punisher fan, it's a must for anyone out there like me who's always loved the big white skull.
Awesome fact - the "flashbacks" are all from the comic "Punisher:Born" Or at least all I've seen thus far are. Waht a great tie in. If you're interested, the Born collection is availiable on Amazon (where I got it) and it's an awesome read. It's truly where the Punisher is born, in Vietnam as a hardcore, ruthless, but fair Marine Captain. IT really puts what Frank Castle became into perspective.
Gameplay is amazing, but switching from X-box to PS2 format has been tough, as it always is.
The environments are awesome. For those who are thinking about buying it, the interrogations are awesome, but you have to be careful not to push to hard. Look for the white and gold skulls that marks the board. You cna use a wide variety of the environment to interrogate people you grab. Downside - don't kill them in interrogation mode, even the special ones, as cool as the bad guys' endings are, or you lose bonus points that go to much needed upgrades. This is the one thing I don't like about the game - you should kepp or gain points for using special interrogations to kill the bad guys.
When you go around, you cna max points by interrogating, or quick killing everyone. Be sure to get used to using cover and human shields (an awesome part of the game).
I love going through the levels and just flat out playing "Castle" on the bad guys - being merciless and ruthless. After I release a guy that helps me, and he does what he says, I wait until it's over, and then I go back and kill that guy who weazled out of death. Heck, that is what the punisher is, isn't it?
Just be experimental. The more people you interrogate, the more flashbacks you find. Some levels have two or three. And make sure you get those points up for upgrades such as silencer attachments, grenade launcher attachments, body armor, and even kill recovery. Good stuff.
This is a must for any Punisher fan. You actually get to BE the man himself!
