The demo is very sexy
I wouldn't mind picking up a retail boxed copy of this.

But yeah the xbox/ps2 (only release) with a pc demo did confuse me but still a very sexy demo.

I thought this was just crap! The AI is as thick as planks and the game play is just plain bloody awful.
I've had better fun gameplay with GTA 3 or crap like Postal2 -the same mindless shooting but at least it was fun!

Anyone who gets their kicks out of that (The Punisher) are obviously pretty young and easily amused Laughing better to have left it as a console release only imo.

I guess I am easily amused when exposing my virgin eyes to something as brutish as Frank Castle. I grew up to the punisher saga and this game, even though it may not do the comics/movie justice, delivers an action packed adventure. AI in the demo may not be superb or half life 2 like (scripted) but it’s there. The controls are simple and the graphics are decent. And the game play is there. What more do you want? A chance to unzip and urinate at the burning corpse of some stray dog?

Come on… I know it’s your opinion but the demo is great and that’s my opinion.

I agree with Yessum. The AI isnt crap, they use obstacles to their advantage, the graphics are excellent, and the gameplay is excellent.
This game is just great period.
