"Excellent game!!!"
5 stars"

Fans of the original Quake are in for a treat. The Havok game engine is smooth and fast without having a $1000 video card to perform.

Get this game if you like mindless, fast paced fragging!

"Definitely better than Doom 3!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I totally agree. Painkiller was the Doom 3 that Doom 3 should have been. And yes I agree about the graphics too – truly beautiful. Doom 3's graphics ranged from truly staggering to lo-res grey walls, Painkiller's are smoother and more detailed walls and stone textures and huge outdoor environments and the most insane physics you'll ever see and the most fun you'll ever have, and runs at a lightning fast framerate on the highest resolution. One of the best games of the year.

"better than doom 3"
5 stars"

awesome weapons especially the stake gun for long range, graphics seemed a lot better than doom 3 on my modest rig,not much of a story but i dont think there is supposed to be,i loved the different enviroments very varied.sound is very moody and contributes to the atmosphere
