An Excellent Concept...

by Annihilator221 Jan 08 2009 10:16 AM

...that honestly did not meet up with my expectations. The game was fun for the first few hours, and then proceeded to become fairly dull. I then played with a friend, and it was fun again for a few hours, and then we both got bored.

From the large, pricey amount of DLC that this game offers along with the near impossible trophies, the game is overall frustrating, but it was a blast while it lasted.

Impossible trophies

by frequencydip Dec 08 2008 10:27 PM

I found this game quite entertaining for a few hours, and I really enjoy playing HORSE with a friend.

I gave the game 2.5 stars because of how ridiculously hard it is to get any of the trophies, playing the game and earning trophies is supposed to be fun, the trophies are so difficult to get it is frustrating. I'm also annoyed of the nickel and dimeing they do with charging for every little add-on.

A Party Game That's Fun In Short Bursts...

by Amir29 Nov 29 2008 05:08 PM

PAIN was promoted as a fun and comical PSN game that will keep you laughing and entertained. Though I agree that it is humorous and fun, you'll find that playing this can get quite boring after an hour or so.

At it's base the game will cost you $9.99. This will give you the one board to play with and a VERY short list of characters. Additional characters will cost you $0.99 and additional boards will cost you $5.99. If these updates were free, I may have given this game an extra half star for some added replay value. But, when you see this game not being played for months, you tend to think whether paying for an update is truly worth it.

A game like this could have benefitted greatly when they began supporting trophies. Unfortunately, they've given such a short list of trophies that are extremely difficult to attain, you feel more frustrated and bored realizing the amount of patience they will require.

In the end, PAIN has the potential to be a fun game. But, in the end no matter how great a game is, how much fun can it be when you can only play the same three levels over and over and over again?

Somewhat fun

by huntoi Nov 26 2008 02:49 AM

This game looks good and characters react to the enviroment really good. There are add-ons that you can buy like stages, but WHY do you have to buy the characters, why can't you just unlock them! Overall its a little below average,
Ps. you get trophies
