Pain Inflicted On the PS3 Thursday

Thursday greets PS3 owners with the option to purchase Pain on the PS3 network, a game that appears to be universally lampooned by game journos the tubes over. Pain is a game in which you fling a character across a city full of hazards with the help of a giant slingshot.

Sound familiar? That's because it is. Those of us that regularly subject ourselves to the indignities of a corporate assfucking have already played this game, only it used to be called Kitten Cannon. The upside of Kitten Cannon is that you don't have to pay 10 dollars for it or buy an incredibly expensive, arguably useful, poorly deployed* system to play it on.

Jason Coker, associate producer for Pain, banks on his zany, wacky demeanor to inflict Pain on us all, by describing it thusly:

"I tell people that it's a crazy game in which you launch a character from a giant slingshot into a downtown area and smash him into stuff and blow stuff up and you snatch Mimes out of the air so you can slam them through plate glass windows and you blast monkeys out the side of a building in an attempt to stop another player's character from successfully crashing into bowling pins and you can play as a dude named Ed in a cow suit and so on and so on...

Boy, that Coker sure is zany. If you'll excuse me I'm going to go play more Kitten Cannon.
