'The Suffering' (PS2/Xbox) Goes Gold

by Rainier on Feb. 23, 2004 @ 12:58 p.m. PST

The Sufferingcaptures the disturbing and terrifying nature of the horror genre in a compelling third-person action/adventure game set in the mature and gritty world of a maximum-security penitentiary. By alternating periods of tense and terror-filled exploration with frenetic combat sequences, The Suffering™ creates the ultimate experience of terror. In the dark world of The Suffering™, creatures jump out of shadows, fall out of trees, and erupt out of the ground, attacking the player in the most frightening ways possible. Along with a cast of uniquely hardened criminals and guards, players battle not only the ghoulish apparitions besieging the prison, but also the demons of their own forgotten past.

The Suffering Features:

  • 9 gritty and terrifying levels—transverse indoor and outdoor terrain and horror lurking in every dark corner.
  • Amazing character morphing effect—fills your rage meter and transform into a hideous and powerful creature.
  • Over 10 deadly weapons from the shiv to the flamethrower to help you survive this nightmare.
  • A dozen horrific monsters—each representing the means of execution that befell them—stalk your every move.
  • Blood and gore galore, dripping, pooling and splattering every level of your frightening journey.
  • Interact with hardened criminals featuring advanced AI; garner their assistance or end their life on your path to freedom—it’s your choice.
  • 3 distinct endings depending on how you play the game. Are you a cold-blooded killer, a man wrongfully accused or something else?
  • Intricate levels featuring moveable and destructible environments.
