    I just noticed the painkiller overdose demo is up on steam and on their site
    Anyone tried this out yet or plan on buying it when it comes out in 6 days?
    Im not very far in the demo but the graphics arent too shabby.

    The graphics seem kinda dated (haven't played the new demo though). I really liked the original game. One of the few I actually finished :)

    played the demo. the game just seem dated or recycled... usually i am into these games (i.e. clive barker jericho is a must buy for me) but for some reason this game seemed like it lacked something very important... and the weapons suck ;\

    I used to like painkiller... a LONG time ago! It's amazing that they they didn't upgrade the graphics at all... if they used mabe the unreal engine 3 then i might have bought it.
