Had the shop sold out of decent games then? Flippin' heck, couldn't you have chosen a couple of games with a little more credibility?

Traded in some recently purchased GS games (ie same day) for both of them.

I haven't played either but Punisher looks great as a gory Max Payne and snow blind is a quality blaster with Deus Ex features and an online mode.

No doubt I shall enjoy both muchly.

But I wouldn't expect Ninty fanboys to understand.


Also picked up Splinter Cell 3 and TS3 so suck it!

The Punisher looks like a substandard Max Payne clone, and even shorter.

Project Snowblind looked nothing short of compltely average. The kind of game that steals ideas from other games, but doesn't improve them at all and ends up just being a substandard clone. Either that or a game full of unrealised potential.

Nope. Punisher has more replay value through attempting to get a perfect rating.

Snowblind is a blaster where you can simply charge through or defend your squad and there's Deus Ex style weapons that you can use if you want. Thankfully it doesn't present you with obvious situations where you HAVE to use them. I'm tired off games like that, this has nice open-ended use of weaponry so you can switch about with ease and watch the cool weapons go!

Plus the heavy online play is a very nice factor indeed.


I'm going to have fun playing them, if you can't then that's your problem.

I'm just saying that they looked distinctly average games, and not worth full price. But hey, if that's your bag, then w/e.

I got The Punisher for 20 quid and Snowblind for 29.99.

I'd have waited a while before getting Snowblind but I expect to be online soon and I've been after something Deus Ex-like for a while.

I'd be happy if there was a new Deus Ex game every 3 months. :)

You have to remember that sometimes it's the over-blown games that are the disappointments. These look fun, not everyone's taste granted but you have to admit that they look fun.

Carnage. :)
