Take the best parts of Painkiller, throw in Serious Sam gameplay and humor, mix in a half-demon, half-angel, and you get Painkiller Overdose. While it is really just a painkiller add-on, it freshens up the tried and true formula with some unique weapons, new character, and very cool enemies. I have not finished the game yet, but so far I am loving it. I have played through 4 levels. The first level gives such a sense of fire and brimstone, it is palpable. The enemies feel more like the hordes of Hell than any game I've played. I like the familiarity of Painkiller, but I am glad they have de-emphasized the hop-skip-jump routines to find hidden holy items. The homage to Serious Sam is great as I was a huge fan of that series. I give it a high fun factor. If you are looking for a deep plot with puzzle solving, this is not the game for you.

Simply, this is another chapter of Painkiller. Those of us that loved the original, and loved BOH, will also like this one.

Basically, Painkiller has no real story (it has a silly one), and you run around as fast as you can shooting things. I probably played the original over 100 times through over the years, and the BOH follow on, about 50. This one is much the same, although it takes some time to reorient yourself into Painkiller thought

The dynamics are almost the same as all PK games, and you'll have to take a bit of time to get yourself into it. Once you're acclimated, its a barrel of laughs. If you take it too seriously, you're missing the point of the PK franchise. Lots of dumb enemies, lots of twisted weapons, lots of silly ammo. And then its over..

Don't overthink this one. Its a goofy way to spend some spare time. Its not serious art (bioshock) or great strategy and story (stalker, half life series), its just a shooter

I have had it for months. I was able to immediately enjoy the original Painkiller from start to finish... but this one just kindof sits on my harddrive.
Painkiller overdose feels too... random (steam roller demons? really?).
The game isnt really as rich and atmospheric as it's predecessor.

Funny everyone dogs the Painkiller series but basically its just been one of those games u turn on, shoot to kill, and get out your angst after a long day at work. Fun goofy chinese samuris, ninjas, old WWII veterans, firey devils in wheelchairs, you name it its here. So quit taking the game TO seriously its not meant for that its just fun, and is what it is, funny this series always gets good reviews from critics, so they must do something right. Btw there is no Secur ROM if you digital download it, thats the blessing of these new sites, no DISCS and no DRM. Got my from Direct To Drive for [...]!! They also have specials for [...] bucks all the time on some very good games. So in conclusion if you like shootem up repetitive killing games this one is for you, personally this is the only one i think that is done right.:D

The Good: Inventive levels and enemies, fast paced action still sticks, cool new weapons, gory and dark atmosphere, interesting protagonist with funny dialog, graphics stand up

The Bad: Repetitive as can be, extremely difficult, online is dead, nothing really new for the genre

In defense of the game's formula you really have to be an FPS nut, or a fan of the classic games like Doom and Quake, to appreciate what's going on here. There are no cinematic events, no quick time events, or helicopter rides. This is just pure shooting with enemies doing nothing but coming after you. If you played the last game and it's expansion and got tired of it you probably want to come back again because of the interesting and completely original levels and enemies. That's probably the only saving grace for Overdose, but it does have some niceties.

First off the story is semi-interesting with you playing as a half demon/half angel who gets thrown into a prison in Hell for thousands of years by Samuel and Cerberus. You ascend through Hell, up to the middle plane, then up into Heaven. The levels are just awesome and so original like Dead Marsh which is inspired by H.P Lovecraft with Cthulhu type enemies. Riot is a level with creepy looking police, hoodlums, and sexy nurses. Farmland has creepy reanimated butchered animals, and the list goes on but the gory mature nature of Painkiller stays. I liked this game over the last more because of these awesome new levels and enemies that are drastically different from before and never feel repetitive.

The weapons are all new with an Evil Eye which is a severed demon head that shoots a laser eye.

PAINKILLER was not exactly breaking new ground with its release in 2004, yet it was a fast FPS with a demonic theme and innovative weaponry that offered tons of fun! It's first expansion (BATTLE OUT OF HELL) did not veer far off.

The same can be said up to a point for PAINKILLER: OVERDOSE (although developed by a different team than the one that gave us the original and the first expansion).
It is a (standalone) expansion with most of the virtues and all the faults of the original PAINKILLER. Excellent sound (especially if equipped with 5.1 or 7.1 speakers, you will be jumping to look over your shoulder all the time...); quite good graphics (yet not at par with the latest releases); a refreshed set of weapons and a really fast pace.

On the other hand, it will get tedious pretty fast as the story is paper thin and the level design is adequate yet with little variations. How many versions of Hell-rooms can you stomach?
So, after having tried all your weapons (from the good-ol' veggie cube and rocket launcher to the new demonic laser) and even gave their alternative firing mode a go, well, there is not much new to see there...

Recommended only to the fans of the series - everybody else, I would advise starting with the original.
