Painkiller: Resurrection



  • Official web page: LINK
  • Publisher: JoWood
  • Developer: Homegrown Games
  • Genre: First-Person Shooter
  • Release date: US: TBA 2009
  • Story/Description:
    Quote:

    The player takes on the role of Wild Bill Sherman, a CIA assassin who works for highly placed members of the government. Though he can claim to be doing some good in the world by ridding it of weapon smugglers and drug lords, his missions to assassinate his employers' political rivals are a bit less morally ambiguous and even a killer-for-hire has to have some principles.

    The opening of the game shows Wild Bill in front of a church planting C4 charges on a parked car. After he wires the explosive the car's ignition, he retreats to the other side of the street to wait for his target. He soon spots him, coming down the street in his high-priced suit and followed by his hulking bodyguards. Just as the target approaches the car, Bill notices a school bus slowing down and approaching a stop just beside the car.

    Knowing that killing this man will cause the death of several innocent people, Bill suffers a crisis of conscience and begins to race towards the car, screaming out a warning. But it's all too late. His mark turns the key in the ignition and the C4 goes off. The massive explosion throws Bill across the street and he dies there in the road.

    Then the game begins.

Awesome news, I play Painkiller atm and plan to finish both expansions too. The game is just so much fun and now with good PC I don't have any slow downs when lots of physics are going on.

Awesome, another kick-ass Painkiller title! Very Happy

Can't believe it's been over 4 years since the first one game out, but even back then it was wonderfully optimised. Always ran like a dream for me Smile

Hrm. Apparently, this is being developed by a company that was formed out of a modding group.

I do like seeing modders be able to go pro. Hopefully they're up to the task of this one...


Correcting people since 2007 even if they're not wrong.

Maybe you should pay more attention where red X's come from. Most of them are coz PC doesn't have split screen (duh). As long as most of check marks are green under "Online" tab I couldn't care less about PC games not having split screen nonsense.

What the heck, no character shadows? Have to thank console for that once again? FEAR2 with nerfed shadows and now this... Maybe shadows are just turned off cos he's playing it on a laptop.

I never said FEAR2 on PC didn't have any shadows. PC and console versions of fear2 are identical in that department. I said shadows ARE NERFED in comparison to FEAR1. But let's not infest this thread with FEAR2 offtopic any more.
