The PUNISHER Games - NES, Gameboy, SEGA, & Arcade History & Review - The Irate Gamer

[@DrowningSorrows1]

The Punisher game for PS2/Xbox is amazing. One of my favorites for that generation. It's just so much fun.

[@PixelGameSquad]

You still doing these is actually super important for the retro community man. Keeping it alive the way it used to be. Good content over anything else ❤️💯

[@pepijn23]

The Punisher is actually pretty dark for a Nintendo game if you think about it cause you can kill innocent people in this game. The game actually kind of reminds me of Operation Wolf and Lethal Enforcers.

[@ZoSo_x]

Legend has it that if you manage to beat the entire game without dying, you'll unlock the true final boss: The Sax Man 🎷

[@TrYED84]

Rumors are that he shoots you with song notes, and if he gets too close he tries to hit you with his sax. Pretty damn tough.

[@mr.nuna916]

That'd be dope

[@DTysonator]

Thank you for putting this video together :). The NES version remains my favorite. Also, nice Batman/Punisher reference at the beginning with the NES Batman cartridge being in the console prior to inserting The Punisher cartridge. There are two Batman/Punisher comic book crossovers anyway.

[@benderbendingrodriguez420]

The irony of Spider-Man asking *The Punisher* of all people for help is beyond me

[@duckmurai]

He didn't ask. Punisher was hired by the Jackal to kill Spidey

[@RetroDeath]

It's not like they made him Iron Man's b*tch or anything these days.

[@RocKnight11]

Spidey and Punisher actually teamed up quite a bit in the 1980s and 1990s. But you aren't wrong for thinking that it's out of character for Spider-Man.

[@chrisbenoit5935]

These videos deserve more views

[@thedehydratedpie3289]

Used to watch you as a kid like 10 years ago , back in early KZbin.. your one of the reasons I developed an interest in retro games even though my first consoles were only the Game boy color and PS1. Glad you're back Chris , always liked your edits and presentation :)

[@bodaciouskyle]

That was a great episode, Chris! Hope you're doing well!

[@pastmistakes524]

Even though when I grew up, watching your videos, and seeing the old ones now, I see the flaws in them. I still stick with ya because even though you do still make mistakes on certain things, you are definitely improving with these videos. And that’s what I usually long for, the evolution of improvement. And I gotta say I like the direction you’re taking. Especially when you’re being the most yourself, and talking about things backstories, their origins, and the behind the scenes to why sometimes things turned out the way they did. Which is kinda why I enjoy your Irate the 80s series so much. In those videos you’re more yourself than ever, and for the most part it feels the most genuine. I think that’s you’re biggest strength.

[@pastmistakes524]

All though I’m still not sure how “nostalgic overload” and “nostalgic mediocre” is used in terms of rating. Though I think it’s more of how nostalgic you personally feel, and not an actual rating system for how they were overall in general. Which I guess makes sense. I was a bit confused when you gave the original Tmnt graphic novel a nostalgic mediocre at first, because at first I thought that meant you gave it a low rating. I think I thought that since most of the reactions from cameos whenever you gave them nostalgic mediocre acted as if you gave them a low rating. But listening to it again, it does sound more like you’re rating is just about how much nostalgia you feel personally when you see them, and that’s definitely fine. Though I do find it a bit odd how cameos would feel offended by something ya can’t really change or have control over. But eh that’s a minor nitpick. Keep on improving man.

[@ikb0615]

Thanks Chris for that great Video. So glad, that you are back! Plz keep goin'. Greetings from Germany

[@dariooben9]

OMG!! I had the radio on while playing this as a kid to fill the lack of music, hahaha... thank you for that memory. That Kingpin boss fight was not an easy feat for a kid.

[@Davidevgen]

man dud you are really pumping out videos :P excellent as always!

[@skullcrusher_1]

Loving the new intro sound! Harmonized metal guitar riffs ftw!

Thanks ;-)

We don't talk about Howard.

Can't forget about Captain America from the 70s. He had 2 films.

Wow, you're making these episodes fast. (And without the help of 4 or 5 other people doing all the work for you!)

Working on this was a blast! Hope to work together again soon!

[@thomaslau8806]

Another awesome video Chris!! Keep on rocking!!

[@dtcharo]

Keep fighting the good fight, Chris! My only critique is I would have liked the Genesis and arcade comparison part to be a tad bit longer but me being hungry for more of your content is a good problem to have. Looking forward to the next one for sure.

[@EpicLebaneseNerd]

i can't explain the happiness i just experienced when i saw that the IRATE GAMER posted a new video, man, this guy rocks, Chris, if u ever read this, dude, u are the man, impressive work my dude.

Great Vid Chris. I was not aware of the Genesis Port. I do agree with you on the NES port needs to have music. I don't know why it lacks some kicking rocking tunes. Keep it up Man!!!

[@NIK12787]

Fun fact with the 2005 Punisher game that is on PS2, Xbox, and PC, Tom Jane who played Frank "The Punisher" Castle in the 2004 Punisher movie reprises his role as him in the game which was awesome since the game is also an awesome game.

Ahhh yeah. Licensed games that were not complete crap. I love the arcade game and the ps2/Xbox game. Fun Fact: The Netflix Punisher stars as the main bad guy in Ghost Recon: Breakpoint. That's right it's time to punish The Punisher! Great vid Chris!

Awesome vid. I love the arcade Punisher. I have it on my cabinet. 👍

[@EmeraldWarrior420]

Punisher, the first Marvel motion picture? You really don't do your research, do you? 3 Captain Amerca films, Dr. Strange, Howard the Duck, and 4 Incredible Hulk movies. The 2 Conan movies were when Marvel owned rights to the character, as well, and even had Roy Thomas onboard as a consultant.

[@TheOtherLogan]

To be fair, I should've wrote "First Marvel Superhero film". I don't really think that The Captain America film serials and Doctor Strange TV Pilot/Hulk TV Pilots count as full-length feature films. My mistake!

[@SnipeShowSteve]

Omg Chris only 1/3 way through and your have emobied the irate gamer from the beginning and toke him even further 😁 loving it brother

I remember the 2005 Xbox/ps2 punisher game, loved it back then. One level had pools of piranha, easy kills were gained by throwing the bad guys into the pools.

One cool thing you did not mention about 2005 Punisher game is that Thomas Jane did the voice acting. Same guy that was in the 2004 movie for those who do not remember his name.

Awesome video Chris, Yeah I enjoyed the punisher comics from the 80s and early 90s as a kid in the late 90s early 2000s so it has been a character close to my heart. I really like the ps2 game and I think the PS2 was actually one of the best era for superhero games in my opinion.

James Rolfe only had that game. Chris doesn't know that game exists yet. Edit: Wait, no. I'm a fucking dipshit. I saw tgat he had it in his collection, it wasn't in the intro.

5:00 Who the hell is LGN?

[@sfighter0085]

OMG, I freaking love The Punisher. I remember seeing the lame, but entertaining Dolph Lundgren movie as a kid, but what ultimately made me a fan was 2004 movie with Thomas Jane. So far the only video games I've played of this iconic vigilante was the 2005 game on my PS2, that game was the shit for me, also made better imo with the return of Thomas Jane as the voice of The Punisher. I've only played a little of the LJN game on an emulator on my old computer, and while it was horrible like other LJN titles, it definitely wasn't anything to really write home about. I'd love to check out the arcade game, or at the very least the Sega Genesis port. That game really looks dope. Great episode man, too boad you didn't shoot the saxophone dude, that would've been a hoot.

[@Morningstar91939]

[@roguerifter9724]

I remember my cousin showing me a Marvel what if comic where Frank Castle became a detective after returning from Vietnam then became the Punisher because some dirty cops he was investigating tried to kill him and wiped out his family during the attempt. I think the NES game is set in that universe.

Where's the cameo from Dolph Lundgren, Chris?

[@irategamer]

Lol hes a hard get!

[@TheJohno95]

Hey, Chris! If you haven't seen it, check out Laundry Day starring Thomas Jane....A short film on KZbin. He basically plays the Punisher and it's a fun little film. I think it was his way of saying: "I'm ready to do this again." A shame they didn't do a sequel with him.

[@sithsoldier98]
