Fast paced and intensive

Dead guy needs to kill demons to reunite with his love in heaven. The story is just an excuse to kill hordes of enemies, and shooting and killing are the 2 things the game does really well. Graphics still looks fine today and Havok physics engine used in the game was realy impressive at the time (I think it was one of the first games showcasing good physics). Your opponents - various demons or souls of the damned and locations have an interesting design and weapons are really original (like stake gun, shotgun with additional freezing ammo or shuriken launcher). Throw in tarot cards system and it gets really interesting. The Black edition includes also add-on with additional levels, weapons and enemies, continuing story from the base game. Now some flaws: some levels are available only on particular difficulty, so you won't see some of them playing on anything easier than nightmare or trauma difficulty. The second thing is that the game likes to crash during swamp boss fights and I experienced some save corrupting bug on train station level. But this could be potentially fixed with Unofficial Patch v1.66 or Randomguy7's Fix Compilation patch.

My Kind of Shooter

I love fast-paced shooters along the likes of Blood, Doom, Duke Nukem 3D and Quake. But my favorite kind, are the ones that eliminate the maze-like level designs. The likes of Painkiller and Serious Sam are what I'm talking about. Walk into a room, kill everything and move on to rinse and repeat. It's straightforward and easy dopamine. Some of the bosses do suck though, so I suggest looking up a guide for those ones. Ok, you can go buy the game now. Just don't listen to the boomers who hate this kind of shooter. They seem to really hate arena combat for some reason. Oh, and don't play the horrid expansions after Battle out of Hell, they suck.

Painkiller Black, Best of the Series

This game runs great on older hardware. If you like fast paced first person shooter, this game is a must have. It's as much fun today as when it first released. I'm really enjoying this game.

Pure shooty fun!

This is not a complex game by any means. The story is boring and stupid, and it never really moves past shoot badguys in the face. If that sounds bad, it isn't. This game is the absolute best in shooting badguys in the face simulation. Everything about the action is perfect. It rarely slows down (Except for that dang snowlevel, see the screenshots) everything is satisfyingly visceral, and you get a portable lawnmower on a stick. What more could you want from a shooter?

Bland

I started playing this game quite a while ago, moved it to Linux later and after not wanting to play it for a long time and then having some savestates corrupted making me to play the ugly "asylum" level again, I finally quit. It's a game in the tradition of Quake and probably exactly what many people are looking for that love old school fps, but it somehow didn't really impress me. The soundtrack is nice, the graphics ok, level design is good although the hidden stuff is way too well hidden for me to find anything, the weapons are crude which was cool in Quake 3 but I'm missing something here to be honest. It just looks dead in an uncool way. It isn't a bad game and it's even running perfectly via PlayOnLinux, but it's extremely unsatisfying, boring and doesn't give me any joy. It's really just running around and shooting hordes of boring enemies without the humour or colourful design of Serious Sam.
