The Punisher

Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             The Punisher
AUTHOR/VENDOR:    Marvel Games
RELEASED:         1994
TYPE:             Fighting
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          Platform slugfest based on the dark superhero of Marvel
                  Comics fame - a former Vietnam veteran whose family was
                  wiped out in a random and senseless killing, and since
                  has devoted himself to terminating any criminal he runs
                  across.

IMPRESSIONS:      The Marvel Comics character comes out in his own arcade
                  game.  It's your usual monotonous punch-and-kick side
                  scroller.

A ported game from arcade CPS-1.

The game play of it like the SOR series, but with more gun action. The enemy appears repetitively, while the design on background environment solve that problem, you would face different situation on different rounds.

Although some of the graphics from the original CPS version had drop, however, it's still good to see there are a 2-players mode there, and the control is still easy to handle (although not as good as the original one)

If you like SOR, try this! I sure this game would be in different taste to SOR.

The violence was toned down from the arcade version. Other than that it's a fairly faithful conversion. If you have problems running MAME, or don't believe in emulation, the Genesis version is worth a try.
