Max Payne Series - Megathread - Games

[QUOTE=Burnyhands;35591393]In the OP... "Max Payne 2: Payne hard- The The Fall of Max Payne" ??[/QUOTE] I think it's a joke that landed on it's nose. Should have been Payne Harder.

My suggestion for thread title: Max Payne 3: Payne in the ass

Countless times shooting bullets during killcams to see them wheeze through and add more wounds/debris around. Good times! If you enjoy mayhem - you might want to give Stranglehold a try, it's basically Max Payne minus the story, but the shootouts are genius.

[QUOTE=Vallux;35591726]I think it's a joke that landed on it's nose. Should have been Payne Harder.[/QUOTE] It was supposed to be like that. I'd rather not put a fake title in for people who know nothing of the series to assume that's what it's actually called.

[QUOTE=spekter;35595899]It was supposed to be like that. I'd rather not put a fake title in for people who know nothing of the series to assume that's what it's actually called.[/QUOTE] I just found the redundant 'The' a little odd. So I think it's great how this game is dripping with Norse mythology.

I agree stranglehold is pretty good. Loads of awesome shootouts. too bad the story. Is pretty gay.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX6eE7G7Fgs[/media] The writing is just so goddamn perfect.

Can someone explain the controls for eagle eye, sliding and cover in Payne Effect? I can't get any to work.

For the MP3 multiplayer, is there some sort of cool killcam? I do believe a kick-ass killcam would accentuate the multiplayer [editline]17th April 2012[/editline] Oh shit, that comic sounds cool. Being written by Dan Houser and Sam Lake it can't go wrong.

[QUOTE=Duxfever;35608385]Written by Dan Houser [B]and Remedy's Sam Lake[/B][/QUOTE] YES.

Something that shows you how you died, or where the bullets hit you and stuff.

Sam Lake's next game should have Sam Lake play every character.

[QUOTE]At the official Max Payne 3 site today, you'll find the latest intelligence dossier documenting one of the game's most notorious forces, the Crachá Preto paramilitary faction of São Paulo. The detailed file on this ruthless vigilante squad reveals that they're far from an amateur band of gunmen - their 400 strong army consists of hardened and highly-trained specialized police, firefighters and even rogue active military men. Although they claim to be a 'community self-defense force', the report reveals a more sinister side with a history of extortion, blackmail and drug trafficking - amongst other nefarious deeds. Their leader, Álvaro Neves and right-hand man, Milo Rego are men to be feared - and will not hesitate to deploy swift and violent action against any perceived enemy or obstructionist threat.

These guys look scary as hell.

I [B]really[/B] hope those are console screen-shots, seriously. It looks like 2006 era game from those screen-shots. Also the "idle" poses for weapons (the guy with shotgun, for example9 look bit silly to me. I really hope this turns out good, there have not been enough good single-player 3rd person shooters (where you can jump over chest high fence) lately.

They are console screenshots. There have only about 10 PC screenshots released. PC is being developed alongside the console versions equally, and will feature DX11 tessellation + optimization for lower-end PCs. Here's a few: [t]http://media.rockstargames.com/screenshots/maxpayne3-2029-2560.jpg[/t] [t]http://media.rockstargames.com/screenshots/maxpayne3-2025-2560.jpg[/t] [t]http://media.rockstargames.com/screenshots/maxpayne3-2031-2560.jpg[/t] Oh yes, and these are new, or I haven't seen them.

Sweet, just got an email back from Rockstar confirming the Steam Pre-order will be unaffected by any pre-order deadlines. Meaning it will be the same til launch. Gotta love Steam.

Great, those look like they're from this decade:). Some parts of those screen-shots look bit a cell-shaded, which i'm fine with as long as it fit's the game. Those benches at the stadium, for example. Clothing looks [B]really [/B]impressive at the moment, hope they do physics well for them.
