Painkiller Black Edition
Description
Painkiller Black Edition includes Painkiller and the expansion pack Battle Out of Hell, featuring 10 additional single-player levels and many new villans.
Gothic Story, Frantic Gameplay. Painkiller is a first-person horror shooter, designed to satisfy a gamer's hunger for intense, fast-paced action. It's an adrenaline addict's nightmare, where hellish monsters swarm in seemingly endless mobs.
Graphically, Painkiller is unmatched. The proprietary PAIN Engine puts out an unbelievably high polygon count, while adding increased texture quality and the latest lighting and shadowing techniques, including soft shadows, DOT3 bump mapping, water reflections, glass simulation, volumetric light and fog, and more. Plug in the Havok 2.0 physics engine, and you get a realistic environment in a totally fantastical setting.
Stranded in a place between Heaven and Hell, your time of judgment is at hand. The Underworld is on the verge of unholy war, and you are but a pawn in the infernal battle. As you fight for your purification, the truths behind the deceptions are revealed.
FEATURES
- Combo weapons: All weapons come in pairs, with a primary and secondary fire.
- Morphing: Your unholy pact gives you the power to morph into a powerful possessed creature with every 66 souls collected.
- Lasting replay value: Painkiller features a standard single player campaign, with additional modes to encourage replay.
- Physics Engine: Painkiller employs the Havok 2.0 physics engine, allowing for inverse kinematics ("rag-doll physics") and deformable, interactive environments.
- Over 30 levels of fierce action, dozens of different enemies in completely unique and varied environments.
- High adrenalin gameplay: non-stop action, hundreds of enemies to be decimated and gigantic bosses.
- 14 incredible weapons, including the famous stake-gun, and the mythical Painkiller.

Pretty fucking good
It's like Doom. But Polish. And with a few extra gimmicks. Why is there no Vader in the soundtrack, tho? P.S.: Don't play anything after Battle out of Hell.

Constant Crashing
The game crashes and freezes my entire PC, not even task manager is usable. The few times i can get it to run, the game is hit with bugs all the time such as last enemy going missing and thus i cannot proceed to the next stage. Otherwise it seems like a rather fun game with a good soundtrack, but unfortunately i cant get it to run.

Janky, but not bad.
This game just presents itself to you, fully nude, and that's it. The mechanics aren't deep, the level design is very simple, the weapons are simple, and nothing is explained. Sometimes you'll enter gray mode where you blast away enemies and you're invincible. Sometimes you can't advance cause you missed a ninja that was hiding somewhere in the area. He's gotta die before you can move on. Sometimes the amorphous blob boss walks circles around you for minutes at a time and you have no means of damaging it because of RNG. Not Necrovision levels of jank, but pretty janky. Still though, fun game. Not bad.

Shows its age
It's kinda fun, but everything feels super muted. A drab pallet, muffled sounds and impacts (but nice gibs). I doesn't hurt to play, but Iwouldn't pick this as my first choice. Bunny hopping is fun, and a lot more games should have it.
