Max Payne Series - Megathread - Games

[del]Well they said matchmaking is through the Social Club, so I wouldn't doubt it.[/del] Yeah.

[QUOTE=Jackald;35821549]Okay, so we were playing Draw Something: poor edition today, and my friends couldn't get that this was max payne.

How could anyone not see that?[/QUOTE] I know, right!

[QUOTE=TheNuB;35821207]If they optimize the servers well enough, 250 v 250... Mother of God, it would be so awesome. I have a feeling there would be some form of the bloodz and cripz.[/QUOTE] I obviousy misread your post because there will never be multiplayer matches anywhere near that size in MP3

So the game doesn't use GFWL and instead R* own thingy?

I lost interest Max Payne 3 a while ago after being disappointed with the changes, but after seeing more stuff recently I've been won over. Looks like it's going to be fun, I hope the story doesn't suffer though.

I thought Max Payne 3 was a short cutscene in the latest GTTV - nope. It's the whole show.

Call me a weird-O... but I've actually always loved matchmaking on popular well known games. It's fun to party up with a few friends and fight random people. Uncharted is a great example of what I'm talking about. I'm hoping a good majority of people are using mics!

Oh wait you can't buy a copy of the limited edition. For fuck's sake.

Wow. That comic was really cool. I liked how it went to Max's past. Can't wait for the other issues.

Actually on the topic of the comic, it was actually a good read. What you'd expect from Sam Lake and Dan Houser.

[QUOTE=FoxMeister;35824365][url]http://www.rockstargames.com/maxpayne3/comics[/url] you can read the first comic now[/QUOTE] That was cool. Though I kinda didn't like the fact that Max drinks [B]all the time[/B]. In his house, on the way to the cemetry, in the cemetry, on the way to the bar to get drunk again. I know they try to make a point here, but that was a little too much.

[QUOTE=FoxMeister;35824365][url]http://www.rockstargames.com/maxpayne3/comics[/url] you can read the first comic now[/QUOTE] I felt so bad for Max when he hugged the gravestone.

The point is he was basically an alcoholic, judging by the story, a pretty severe one too.

[QUOTE=Nitro836;35824717]I felt so bad for Max when he hugged the gravestone.[/QUOTE] I felt bad for him the whole through. Unless it was the Max Payne 1 Graphic Novel music I had in the background that helped the mood.

[QUOTE=FoxMeister;35824365][url]http://www.rockstargames.com/maxpayne3/comics[/url] you can read the first comic now[/QUOTE] I can't stop reading the comic in his voice.

The comic was really great,i enjoyed it. I also love the art style of it.

Max seems to have nailed the "rigorous health regiment" though. Whiskey for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In the evening a dose of painkillers and a z-list movie from pay per view. Shit is sad. I hope that Max falls in love with Passos at least and lives happily ever after till the sequel.
