It's a repulsive cocktail of inconvenience, design missteps and frustration that fails to entertain on any level. Quite simply, if you buy this game, you are wasting your money.

About
As with every journey into purgatory, the journey in Painkiller: Resurrection starts with death and pain. William 'Wild Bill' Sherman, an ex CIA Agent and specialist for dangerous missions in the Black Ops Special Unit has a big problem: during his last job, he has managed to not only kill the head of an illegal drug operation and a slew of innocent civilians, but himself in a fatal mistake. Trapped in a hostile place between heaven and hell, his soul flickers between the millions of faceless infidels and good and evil forces start to use Wild Bill for their own needs. But, it turns out that nothing is as it seemed at the beginning...solve the mystery and give the equilibrium between heaven and hell a little flip!

Critic reviews
- 3.5Painkiller is one franchise that appears to be better off dead. While the original game is still a treat for old-school shooter fans who won't let go of DOOM, all of the expansions and stand-alone add-ons have been pretty much atrocious. Let's hope that Painkiller: Resurrection is the last nail in the coffin.
- 3.5Confiamos en que JoWooD no abandone su apoyo a los estudios noveles de desarrollo de videojuegos y esperamos que en un futuro este estudio mejore cuanto han aportado en este caso y pronto se enmienden con un título a la altura de lo que se espera de un Painkiller.
- Les développeurs ne prenaient pourtant pas de grands risques : en reprenant à l'identique le gameplay de l'original jusqu'au moindre monstre, ils auraient dû accoucher d'un FPS de la même trempe. Malheureusement, le level design épouvantable et le manque de finition se chargent de tout ruiner.
