Okay, so it's been said that this is just another clone of a tired game engine, but I have to disagree.

It really captures the overall feel of the latter Punisher comic-books and the Tom Jane movie. It's definitely a challenge on later levels, and there is a host of other Marvel characters making an appearence in the game, including Bullseye, Kingpin, Nick Fury and Ironman to name a few.

Also, there are plenty of goodies to unlock as you progress, including a huge gallery of Punisher comic-book covers, concept art for the game and a series of flashback images that you encounter during gameplay.

Overall, it's a must for Punisher fans, Marvel fans and anyone who just likes a good action game.

If the film was half as good as this it may not have been such a bomb. Garth Ennis writes yet another superb Punisher story straight out of the pages from the original mini series through to the classic "Welcome Back Frank" story arc and others.
Playing this was as though I was reading the MARVEL MAX stories. Oh the gore, oh the legs flying everywhere, oh the fun

Letting off steam 8 Sep 2006
The first thing you notice about the Punisher on PS2 is how much it reminds you of the groundbreaking Max Payne of a few years back.The second is the new levels of brutality that gaming has gone to,in order to keep 'the kids' entertained.

But these are minor quibbles!

The Punisher is awesome,quite literally 100 times better than that AWFUL movie(10/10 for effort though)as you shoot,stab and kill your way through multiple levels of gameplay,with many recurring Marvel/Punisher supporting characters making cameo appearances.(I won't spoil them here though)

The real joy is just how amazingly unrestrained this game is in its depiction of the Punisher himself,brilliantly voiced in a deeper monotone,by the movies Thomas Jane,and in the violence he inflicts onthe thousands of scum who come crawling out the woodwork to meet their end at the Punishers hands.There is,I'm ashamed to admit,an almost perverse joy in a bad day at work,knowing you can come home and let off some steam,dishing out vitual vengeangce against CG scum.Or is that just me....

The game itself is a little simplistic for my taste,but really,thats what the Punisher is all about.Revenge and punishment by the simplest route possible.I even prefer this game to Garth Ennis' comic book,on which it is more closely based than the actual movie it ties in with.So if you've ever wanted to give a man a pavement sandwich,tape a grenade to a guys mouth,slam his head repeatedly in a fridge,or just plain feed him to the sharks,then this is the game for you!!!

One of the best games I've played.
First of all, a potential buyer should know that this game is very violent. At times, I had to look away. However, I still had a great time. Read more

Greatest comic based game ever
the punisher is my favourite marvel hero but unless your a HUGE fan of the comics or movies then you probably wont get to admire this games potential.

Bloody brilliant!!!
Yeah, the film's OK....but the game's superb!

The best movie tie-in game
Dark, violent, sadistic, cruel (though deserving in most cases), ambitious and addictive. I think this is one of the best games going and is certainly the best movie tie-in you... Read more

Don't bother with this game. Just bought it, played it for 10 minutes, sent it back. Everything is rubbish, unless your ambition in life is to watch badly computerised anime... Read more

Gripping entertainment
Although not as long as I had hoped (took approx 9hours to complete) this game had real replay value due to its upgrades, unlockables and mini-challenges. Read more

Slightly difficult but still damn good
This is a fairly tricky game even on easy setting but that aside, I cant find any other faults with this game. Read more

Its not vengeance, its punishment!
A faithful reproduction of the Punisher series, although the game is closer to the original comics than the recent film. Read more
