I was surprised
newn | Aug. 10, 2011 | See all newn's reviews »I was surprised when I first launched this game. I was hoping for something much better than the first Painkiller. However it wasn't like that at all. Even the graphics seemed worse than the original's. It also had a lot of bugs, and even crappier level designs. That was accombined with poor sounds. It really isn't something much compared to the first part. I still completed it out of respect to the first part though, but I didn't play it the second time.
If you want a great game - go take Painkiller: BE instead. But if you respect Painkiller and want to see what's up with it - this game is extremely cheap.

Pretty Lame
SnivMunchr | July 7, 2011 | See all SnivMunchr's reviews »I moderately enjoyed the first Painkiller game. Sadly, this one doesn't even come close: the load times are ridiculous, the game is extremely buggy, and there is almost nothing new about this game at all - just a boring re-hash of the first game. Just crap, really.

Mediocre Painkiller
Harjyot | June 22, 2011 | See all Harjyot's reviews »The game is visually worse than the original, and has poorer level design and story. The game just uses the Painkiller name, but fails to match the fun, addicting, and polished experience Painkiller: Black Edition is. Go check that out instead. The game simply fails to live up to its namesake.

Repetitive Shooter
GMGReviewer | April 8, 2011 | See all GMGReviewer's reviews »This repetitive shooter is a repetitive shooter. To describe how repetitive this repetitive shooter is, all you do is collect bullets, shoot and kill a boat load of enemies and move on to the next generic room and repeat,
The game does have a variety of weapons where you get to use them as you progress. You get them all when you start out, but you can't use them unless you collect ammo for that certain weapon.
Painkiller Redemption is fun at first where the music puts you in the mood to kill kill kill, but each section of the room just goes on for far to long. The game is still new and the devs promises many new features like co-op and such, but we'll just have to see.
The mindless shooting compares to Serious Sam, but it's not even close to the level of Serius Sam's production value and fun factor. The stages, enemies, gameplay doesn't have much variety (at all!) as the weapons, but for the price, its an alright game.
