Given its $10 price tag, it's surprising just how much entertainment PAIN offers. Creative players can squeeze hours of fun out of its crotch-smashing, civilization-ruining antics, and it's perfect for blowing off steam when you've got a few minutes to kill. It's also obviously meant to be stuffed with downloadablecontent later on, meaning you'll likely have reasons to come back even after you've seen and done everything the game has to offer. The sophomoric idiocy isn't for everyone, but for what it is and what it costs, PAIN is hands-down one of the best things ever to hit the PS3.
