[QUOTE=cyclocius;35835721]I couldn't finish MP1. I played it for so long, but I was in a big corridor and 3 people had Grenade Launchers. I literally could not kill the fuckers.[/QUOTE] I always went bullet time, zoomed in with the sniper, went around the corner and shot a guy, went back around. Rinse and repeat.
[QUOTE=OffTheRoad;35835774]Did you have enough ammo in your sniper rifle? It's not totally impossible once you figure out how to handle those guys.[/QUOTE] I literally walk round, line my sights up and I'm dead.
Just replayed Max Payne 2, finished in 4 hours, which is a personal record. Screwed up a few too many times at the Mona sniper part.
Personal record? 4 hours? What? Whelp, whatever rocks your boat. Time to install Payne Effects 3 and do it all over again.
[QUOTE=Vallux;35836176]Personal record? 4 hours? What? Whelp, whatever rocks your boat. Time to install Payne Effects 3 and do it all over again.[/QUOTE] I've completed it thrice on different difficulties. My hardest run yet and it was the quickest I've done - I keep screwing up the mission with Mona where you have to protect Payne from the commandos. It's a bullshit level.
Hey guys, Max Payne has been ported to PS3 and I got enough dosh to buy it, shall I?

You are right about the level being crap. I mostly spend my time reloading saves made before a slow-mo "killcam". Nothing like dropping cleaners from the 50th floor to the ground below. [QUOTE=riki2cool;35836350]Hey guys, Max Payne has been ported to PS3 and I got enough dosh to buy it, shall I?[/QUOTE] God, no. I got it for free on +. The PS3 version is a straight port from the PS2, which is a crappy port from the PC. No trophies, no HD updates no nothing. If I recall the PS2 version had levels that were cut up worse than a Hollywood bimbo, not to mention the wonky controls and graphics and loading times.
[QUOTE=riki2cool;35836350]Hey guys, Max Payne has been ported to PS3 and I got enough dosh to buy it, shall I?[/QUOTE] Why not get the PC version? You're guaranteed to be able to run it - I managed to get it working decently on a freakin' netbook a while back - and you'll have the added benefit of being able to mod the game.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35836081]Memorize where they are, zoom in ready, line up your sights, hit bullet time, pop round the corner, fire, shoot dodge back. You should only be visible for like a fraction of a second if you do it that way.[/QUOTE] zoom in? what are you a hardscoping fagget?
[QUOTE=Namelezz!;35836130]Just replayed Max Payne 2, finished in 4 hours, which is a personal record. Screwed up a few too many times at the Mona sniper part.[/QUOTE] I'm guessing you didn't brake for the cutscenes.
[QUOTE=Nitro836;35836599]I'm guessing you didn't brake for the cutscenes.[/QUOTE] Nah, skimmed them through since I've played this one so many times before with about three different mods. Went with vanilla this time around and on hardest difficulty skipping all cutscenes (why oh why do they have loading screens when you try to skip them) and saw that Steam said I had finished in 4 hours from start to finish.
What weapon(s) should I add to my Max Payne 2 mod? I did a revolver/dual revolvers and dual sawed-off shotguns as a test. I'll probably just steal the models from FPSBanana or something.

[QUOTE=Hellborg 65;35833884]In a game where you can watch a bullet blow someones brains out in slow motion, I really doubt Rockstar are going to censor naughty words.[/QUOTE] I would find that seriously hilarious though. Wouldn't mind if they did that.

[QUOTE=kitteh-nator;35836994]I would find that seriously hilarious though. Wouldn't mind if they did that.[/QUOTE] If they gave you the option to, I wouldn't mind. Sometimes swear words are funnier when bleeped out.
The comic is pretty awesome. I am replaying 1 now and I think the game is even more..poetic in its commentary. But that may be due to Max losing even his cynic humour with time. [editline]5th May 2012[/editline] Wait he [sp]killed his own mother[/sp]
[QUOTE=Killuah;35837320] Wait he [sp]killed his own mother[/sp][/QUOTE] No, where did you get that idea from?
Misstyped, I meant [sp]father[/sp]
[QUOTE=Killuah;35837617]Misstyped, I meant [sp]father[/sp][/QUOTE] Uh, he didn't. [editline]5th May 2012[/editline] that was a replica gun
Thought it was a real one after [sp] he saw his dad with the new girl and talking shit about his mother[/sp]
[QUOTE=Killuah;35837886]Thought it was a real one after [sp] he saw his dad with the new girl and talking shit about his mother[/sp][/QUOTE] Wouldn't make sense because Max said that [sp]his father joined his mother three years later.[/sp]
[MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysBC0R03jOw[/MEDIA] Bloody love this in MP2.
And the fact that [sp] he was wearing the same suit from his mom's funeral.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Hellborg 65;35833884]In a game where you can watch a bullet blow someones brains out in slow motion, I really doubt Rockstar are going to censor naughty words.[/QUOTE] The only reason why it's censored is because that video was recorded from Spike, and we all know how "wrong" swearing is on TV.

I just want a mod that makes the weapon system in 1&2 like the one in 3.
[QUOTE=Takuat;35838844]I just want a mod that makes the weapon system in 1&2 like the one in 3.[/QUOTE] Funny, i'd prefer the exact oposite.
Having magic pockets is not as fun imo.
Just got the Max Payne 3 pre-order off steam. Time to try the first games. Only played Max Payne 2 a little bit before.
