The first two have a special place in my heart, eagerly anticipating this one!

As long as the original theme song is there, with tibits of graphic novel story and husky voice narration, it'll be grand.

title should be Max Payne Three thread of slow mo NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

COME ON.

The artwork and the trenchcoat were all 2 had going for it.

Otherwise it was pretty forgettable gameplay wise.

I finished it three times in a weekend to see the second ending.

Given how incredibly linear the level design was (essentially the entire game is just running down a winding corridor) and how short it was, the game had almost zero replayability based on gameplay and I only made it through the second and third times because the artwork was so nice and I wanted to see the hardest difficulty ending because one of my mates had said it was different.

I enjoyed the first run through but it was fairly forgettable as a game compared to games like HL or Deus Ex which I'd go back and play over and over.

The Matrix game on XBOX was way funner than this shit - and it had kung fu.

Oh and http://www.inthemix.com.au/forum/sho...ighlight=payne

so.. .anyone getting this? reviews are pretty fucking solid so far. 88 on metacritic.

Max Payne 3 - IGN Video Review - YouTube

Awaiting PC release - then I'm fucking hibernating with it.

Critic and user review have all been sky high.

I just shot someone's fucking face off!







...I mean, it's all good so far.

Fucking music in this is ace. Track playing right now seems reminiscent of that Drive movie with gosling...


3rd chapter. I was about to start saying its a seeming a bit to easy, then all of sudden I'm getting swamped and bullets are scarce.

As long as its not only five hours playtime like the last one, I'm gonna enjoy this quite a bit...

yeah. i read somewhere someone reckoned it was like playing in a michael mann movie

Collateral shootout club-disco scene Fever (Tom Cruise [Vincent] and Jamie Foxx [Max]) - YouTube

It's meant to be around 12 hours of Gameplay which is awesome.


Most importantly - Does it have the original theme song? Does it have the original theme song? Does it have the original theme song?

Might well get this after I'm finished with D3

Chapter 6. Took me about 15 attempts to get passed one room.

The slow-mo kill cam when I emptied an uzi into the last guy at point blank was more satisfying than the last blow job I had, which was pretty good.




No, I will not be seeking therapy.

"They were all dead, the final gunshot was an exclaimation mark for everything that had led to this point, I released my finger from the trigger, and then it was all over"

Hmmm... never played the first 2, but this looks awesome.

By all reports it looks like I shouldn't have missed the first 2... question is if the first 2 were so good do you think it would be worth playing them first? Not sure if I could handle 2001 graphics...

I don't think you need to play earlier chapters of any games these days. Bar mass effect, even that's debatable.

The graphics on 1 aren't that bad for it's time; besides, the gameplay is worth it.

1 and 2 are fine.

Spoiler:

The dream sequence mazes in 1 are still ridiculous though

Rockstar gave all steam pre-orders a free copy of LA Noire today. That's in addition to the free copies of MP1 and 2 they already have given out.

Replayed each level on hard via chapter select thinking it would count towards finishing the story on hard achievement. It did not.

Pretty big fail.

sweet fancy moses this game is fucking incredimazing! i'm just going to put it out there. in terms of story, graphics, and fun-ness; i think its the best single player 3ps ive played. godDAMn you feel like a fucking bad ass, diving through the air in slow motion, firing two guns at the same time, and then some dudes face explodes in a cloud of blood

holy fucking shit. multiplayer might be even better

so... why is noone else playing this? shit is so fucking cash.

Lack of that last word. And time.

It's on the list

You need to look that kind of shit up on the intertubes before ever assuming.

damn it man! sort your shit out!

The person I'm letting down most is myself.

I...have to go now.

The multiplayer is god damn fun.

i think that may have something to do with Diablo 3 launching around the same time

I've been playing a little bit. It's amazing. I'm only 4 chapters and and It's better then max payne 2 easily.

Thinking of getting this, looked good on the Good Game review. Do I need to play the first 2 to get the most out of it or is it awesome by itself?

i havent played the first two and im finding this to be the best game ever made... well. its a metric shit tonne of fun.

The story isn't linked directly to MP1 and 2. There are some subtle references to events in MP1 though.

It also helps explain why he's such a drunk in MP3

Need an ITM Gang imo

yeah. itm superfriends crew. can you set one up?

Don't understand the hate, MP2 was seven shades of fucking awesome.

i never said i hated it. It wasn't as good as 1 imo. Gameplay a little better but the rest lacking


it was also shorter than your willie
