(PSN) The Punisher: No Mercy.

This isn't the mini me of Unreal Tournament III as it may initially seem, yes it is powered by the same engine, it also adopts the trademark cut scenes, and the game focuses almost entirely on the mulitplayer.  For all of its flashy comic style cut scenes, the story comes down to a basic one, mainly of you and a few bots slugging it out in a variety of grim industrial arenas.

But wait; before you go off and buy something else remember that just like Unreal Tournament III the game will come to life in mulitplayer and that just so happens to be the case. The aiming is pure twitch making for a light fast paced play with plenty of respawns, power-ups, so between the games on Call of duty 4 and killing some Nazi zombies on World at war, it comes in handy for a quick break and is well worth its £6.29 value.
