Max Payne Series - Megathread - Games

Well that was scary... Max Payne 1's audio was messed up on Win 7 (Ive fixed it now though) it went really quiet and then Michelle's scream almost made me deaf.

[quote]Max Payne 3 will be the first Rockstar game that gets released (relatively) simultaneously for PC and consoles since 2003, so I guess it's some kind of testing scenario for them: Will the PC version of Max Payne 3, a franchise that originally comes from the PC, sell good enough compared to the console versions? [/quote] My god, this could be a test to see if the PC community is deserving enough to actually get a GTA V PC release. QUICK, EVERYONE BUY 3 COPIES

Hate being in UK sometimes, I have to wait 3 days more to play this. I'll have to stop checking this thread from the 15th.

Does anyone know if the PC version will have dedicated servers?

I just wanted to share what Max Payne practically is: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cATxlkiyk0o[/media]

eww pendulum

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TP9i_GA1_eQ&sns=em[/media] Have some multiplayer customisation.

woah i had no idea there was that much customization in this game for multiplayer, that's actually awesome as fuck i can see myself playing multiplayer a lot more now

oh my golly

Holy shit. [editline]11th May 2012[/editline] Also, think we can get some animated avatars in here?

[QUOTE=Pandamox;35920578]woah i had no idea there was that much customization in this game for multiplayer, that's actually awesome as fuck i can see myself playing multiplayer a lot more now[/QUOTE]it seems like the MP customization is a lot like red dead redemption's, which isn't a bad thing

Local game store manager vented all plot details to me, including the ending. If he is telling the truth, the entire game is just spectacular.

Just joined the crew, can't wait to try the multiplayer!

They handled character customization exactly the way I hoped they would.

Three more days! So much teasing going on!! And I say three, and not four, because I ain't counting Tuesday's midnight release as a day! So, three more days of anticipation! You're all killing me! - And probably a whole bunch of other people, too!

are you guys counting down the console release? because fuck that, max payne deserves to be played on the pc

Woop, just finished Max Payne 1 and 2!

I would get it on the PC, but I have only 512mb VRAM and also the fact that IT'S TWO WEEKS AWAY I CAN'T HANDLE IT

Wow holy shit, I just realized that the main menu for Max Payne 3 is this: [t]http://img.wallpaperstock.net:81/max-payne-wallpapers_19404_1600x1200.jpg[/t] But I am assuming it changes for each chapter.

I'm pretty sure the real reason is that Rockstar can't develop for the PC worth shit. The lack of GFWL is promising, though.

Rockstar always delivers. [I]Always.[/I] Even the glitches and bugs in their games are fucking hilarious In other news, just finished Max Payne 2. Ending boss level took me 30 minutes because I had no idea what to do lol

They're so subtle, yet awesome. God this game is going to be great.

Then I spent like an hour getting him to bomb out the entire area thinking the whole thing would fall when I got to the last bit.

i got mp2's final boss at my first attempt. but the one on max payne 1... man, had no clue on what to do after you shot the cables.

[QUOTE=Caragolpe;35923204]i got mp2's final boss at my first attempt. but the one on max payne 1... man, had no clue on what to do after you shot the cables.[/QUOTE] Blow up the center satellite tower thing with the M79.

endbosses in the first 2 games were confusing at first, but i got them at my second try. second one was annoying though, keeping your focus at the bolts up high and the floor beneath you to not drop down was pretty hard

All this talk about final bosses is making me wonder if Max Payne 3's will be a straight up gun fight or some sort of puzzle type thing like the previous two games. Hell, I wonder if it'll even have a real boss fight.

They have never done a bad game and all of their games have tremendous amount of detail and work put into it. Also might stream myself playing max payne 1 later today, would anyone be interested in watching ? (haven't played it before, oh dear)
