PC Games 4 U: The Punisher

Story:

The game starts with a short video that Castle is captured by law enforcement officers after assaulting a building. He is then transferred to Rikers Island Prison and being interrogated by two police officers, during the time he talks about the various hits he committed up till that point.
At first, the Punisher infiltrating a crackhouse near his apartment. After almost getting hit by a car upon his leave, he traced the vehicle to a garage alledged as a "chop-shop". After killing every mob in the shop, he learns that the Gnucci family was behind the scene, along with drug trade. Punisher then wages the war and kill Bobby Gnucci, one of Ma's son and Gnucci enforcers.
The death of Bobby enrages Ma, and she orders Bushwacker to capture Joan, the neighbor of the Punisher. The Punisher traces Joan to the local zoo, and kills the Gnucci mob before rescuing Joan. The next war is set at the funeral home, where the Punisher kills all the mob attending the funeral along with Eddy Gnucci, the other son of Ma.
During Castle's assault at the Gnucci residence, he learns that the Gnuccis are getting drug money from a group of Russian mercenaries controlling the dockyards. Subsequently he "pays" a visit to the dockyard, and hears that a certain General Kriegkopf plans to smuggle nuclear weapons to destroy New York City. After attacking a cargo ship alleged to carry the nuke (it was not onboard) and being assaulted by a huge man called "The Russian", Punisher decided to assault the Grand Nixon Island, where the nuclear device is held and carried on a missile.
Castle meets up with Nick Fury on Grand Nixon Island, and pressed on until reaching the launch zone. With Fury's help, Castle is able to defeat General Kriegkopf, the Russian and prevent the launch of the nuclear device. Both escaped before the missile detonates, destroying the island.
Upon returning home, Castle learns that two major crime syndicates are fighting for control over the Gnucci's previous operations. One of these syndicates is being run by Wilson Fisk, aka the Kingpin of crime and the Eternal Sun, a division of the Japanese Yakuza, lead by none other than Castles old enemy Jigsaw. Castle decides to deal with Fisk first, so he attacks Fisk Industries, but is interrupted by the Eternal Sun.
Castle then pays a visit at the Stark Towers; a facility owned by Tony Stark aka Iron Man, after learning that the Eternal Sun are attempting to steal some high tech armour.
After foiling several attempts on the Eternal Sun, Castle decided to assault the Takagi's building, a place where the leader of the gang lives. He comes to know that Jigsaw has been infiltrating the Eternal Sun, and is gaining followers in the gang that essentially Jigsaw is running the business instead. While Jigsaw is being imprisoned in Riker's Island, the Eternal Sun is already planning to bust him out. After killing Takagi (Takagi wanted Castle to end his life) and escaping the Takagi building, Castle allows himself to be captured by the police and taken to Rikers Island, hoping to end this war once and for all.
The time then returns to the present. During the interrogation the prison erupts into a riot, with the inmates start killing the guards with help from the Eternal Sun. Castle takes up the chance and help from detective Martin Soap to escape his cell, and starts fighting his way through the inmates. Eventually he reaches the rooftop after killing most Yakuza members and imates in the process, only to meet Jigsaw face to face.
Castle finally defeats Jigsaw, who is wearing a suit of high tech armor stolen from the Stark Industries completed with a jet pack. As Castle leaves in a flying helicopter, he throws Jigsaw out thereby killing him. On the other hand, Kingpin is angry on the Punisher for his attack on Fisk Industries, and swears revenge on him.

GmaePlay:

Somewhat similar to Rockstar's controversial Manhunt, gameplay in The Punisher offers a combination of exploration, stealth and combat. When he comes across an enemy, who could help further the mission or one simply deserving of punishment, the hero can attack immediately, or sneak up to perform a one-button "quick kill". Depending on the villain, the current location, and a player-determined level of aggression, one of the many gruesome and fatal assaults will be performed. The game's environments also feature interrogation "hot spots", where the vigilante can commit violent and torturous acts on his enemies, coercing them to share information that may help him in his quest.
All of the console ports (Xbox and PS2) saw Frank's torture sequences with the game's various villains censored to some degree (limited blood and gore, no finishing death scene, etc.). Much of this can be removed with a Codebreaker or Gameshark. Internet codes and a modified Xbox allow some of the censoring to be negated. Other patches intensify the gore and violence.
The game is well-known for cameos of Marvel Comics characters, such as Iron Man, Nick Fury, Black Widow, Daredevil (seen only briefly as Matt Murdock), Bushwacker, The Kingpin and Bullseye. Not to mention several memorable characters from the Welcome Back, Frank comic book storyline such as detectives Martin Soap and Molly Van Richtofen, the Punisher's neighbors Joan and Spacker Dave, Ma Gnucci, The Russian and General Kreigkopf.
