Game of the Day - The Punisher



The Punisher is a well done classic beat-'em up.  It's plays a lot like others of the genre, but I particularly like the graphics, gameplay, weapons and other details in The Punisher.  The graphics are very comic-booky (even with talk bubbles) and the weapons are plentiful and draw blood (nice splattering).

There are a many good move combos despite there being just two buttons (punch/fire and jump).  If you push both buttons simultaneously, you to a special circular sweep (go Karate Kid!).  If you jump in the air and then you push both buttons, you throw a bomb/grenade (you have a limited supply enumerated in the lower left corner).

Lots of enemies. color and weapons make for lots of fun.
