Not bad but does need a patch

User Rating: 7 | The Punisher: No Mercy PS3
The game isnt that bad for $10. It has a "campaign mode" which has 4 levels that are basically used as a warmup for online mp. The online multiplayer mode would be solid without so much lag. If the game is patched to fix the lag issues (I would be expecting one soon) then the game would be fun and something to really waste some time on.

As of right now, the winner of every game will be the host (since they would have the best connection). Its impossible to even kill the host right now.

I know the lag issue is a huge con but I'm assuming it will be fixed. The short but sweet campaign mode is actually fun. There's a number of weapons to use which have 3 to 4 upgrades you can get for each (these range from laser sights, acog scopes, silencers, etc). But each upgrade just increases damage, range, and accuracy.

Gamespot really gave it a bad rating expecting it to be Halo or Call of Duty. This is a $10 game we're talking about! Its not supposed to be as polished as those that cost $60. As they say, "you get what you pay for" and that's the case here. A small price for a decent game. Btw, Gamespot..... the term is "lag", not "buggy". The game isn't buggy, it just has lag.
