Max Payne 3 Design and Technology Series: Creating a Cutting Edge Action-Shooter - General

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3KK0Z-rzlw&feature=feedu[/media] The fact that Max Payne is bald now doesn't bother me anymore.

Looks kinda cool.

</excited> So very excited

That was amazing. It's like Euphoria was made for a game Max Payne.

Looking pretty sweet. Some of those animations are really spectacular. Also, am I the only one who dislikes this recent trend of these development videos of not actually having a developer talking about the game, and instead they hire some narrarator?

Holy shit, this looks amazing. The deathcams around 2:20 looked neat.

Hopefully the controls for the PC version aren't full of shit.

[QUOTE=hl2poo;33316530]Hopefully the controls for the PC version aren't full of shit.[/QUOTE] No reason they should be considering Max Payne was originally made for the PC.

I hope the story is good

[QUOTE=Source;33316823]No reason they should be considering Max Payne was originally made for the PC.[/QUOTE] GTA was originally a PC game, and look what they did to GTA IV for PC.

It makes sense as to which they would want. It doesn't matter if the devs did talk about it, it's not like you're going to get MORE info out, they script these things so you're only getting a certain amount of information.

"Reactions to injuries" Not enough shooters have this

Finally they added missions where Max Payne actually looks like Max Payne

[QUOTE=znk666;33317539]Finally they added missions where Max Payne actually looks like Max Payne[/QUOTE] "Finally" implying they weren't in there from the start. Pretty much every time they've showed screens/footage recently has ALWAYS included Max in NY.

They started it in, what, Red Dead Redemption and had it in L.A. Noire too. Man Rockstar is on a roll!

Can't wait to see what euphoria will evolve into in the future

2:28 Did his jaw get shot off?

Looks fun as fuck, and man Rockstar know their shit when it comes to programming.

Wow, I was worried when I saw the initial screenshots a couple of months ago, showing only the south american levels. Now when I realise they've actually incorporated levels with the classic new-york-feel of the previous games I'm satisfied. That also means you'll actually get to experience the story change and understand why Max actually goes to south america.

It's so blatantly obvious.

I won't lie, when I saw the first picture of Max's new look I was scared it would turn into shit, but now it looks the story will be more deep than just him waking up one day like Bruce Willis. My only fear now is the story being crap, because that video just showed the gameplay will be fun as hell.

It'll be good to see a continuation of Max's story.

Damn I love Rockstar. I hope this turns out as well as it looks...

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.

I love Euphoria

I hope there is still slow motion spinning reloading like in MP2, and some new cool bullettime moves to play around!

This was always what I wanted from Max Payne not baldness though, but I guess everyone's gonna let that slide cause R* have once again proven them selves as sly fucks.

It'd be like watching a movie commentary where the commentator is Mr. Movie Guy reading what the director would have said.

Rockstar always deliver quality games, this will be no different.
