Seems like GT didn't received the paycheck from Rockstar in time.

[url=http://www.1up.com/reviews/max-payne-3-review?pager.offset=0]1UP review[/url] score [sp]A-[/sp] I cant believe gamers this day, game is difficult and it instant con..i mean wtf?! [quote]The fact that I happily pressed on through some of the game's frustrations is a testament to just how enthralled I was by the rest of MP3. I would gladly endure the occasional bout of annoyance to experience more of Rockstar's impeccable presentation and superb storytelling. Likewise, the high-bar set by the multiplayer makes it easy to forget any of the dissatisfaction that stemmed from shooting gallery bits of the main campaign. And although the gunplay may still have its roots planted firmly in the past, the way Max Payne 3 showcases its world is undeniably forward thinking. It's a bit strange to gain so much pleasure from Max's suffering, but I guess that's the true essence behind Rockstar's magic. [/quote]
Ladies and Gentlemen! Here to present the Douchenozzle of the year award. The man with nothing to lose, Max Payne! "Thank you, thank you. You know, it takes a special brand of idiot to spoil a game after a biased review, but the good fellows over at GT have managed just that. And for that, I am pleased to announce the winner of the #DOTY2012 award. GAMETRAILERS, give them a big hand...across the face." I know, I suck at imitating Max. Played it like Bogart.
[QUOTE=Vallux;35953852]Well, IGN at it again. "You won't get to escape falling towers like Drake in Uncharted 3." Also there was something about Max not having other abilities than the shootdodge bullet time combo. Gee really?[/QUOTE] Man why can't Max run up walls or fire lasers from his eyes what the fuck is this and why isn't there any buildings falling on him just like there was in the first 2 games, bad game 0/10, burn Rockstar down.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35953985]So yeah, the biggest complaint is it being too tough, something which precision mouse and keyboard controls will basically fix.[/QUOTE] People are way too reliant on autoaim nowadays.

Rockstar embargo people from uploading bits of the story to youtube, I avoid that, I avoid all the comments, then when I watch a review, it gets fucking ruined for me. GT Have done that kind of shit way too many times. [editline]14th May 2012[/editline] Actually, judging by the Gameinformer review, that bit at the end of the GT review is foreshadowed at the start. I'm okay with that.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35954049]Ah, must be like how Max Payne 2 starts in the hospital with Winterson dead, or how Max Payne 1 starts at the top of the Aesir tower.[/QUOTE] Yeah. Thank christ.
[QUOTE=Sourcegamer8;35953940][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4Ewyg8HvWU[/media] Here some multiplayer gameplay![/QUOTE] holy fuck that looks so fluid
[QUOTE=Sourcegamer8;35953940][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4Ewyg8HvWU[/media] Here some multiplayer gameplay![/QUOTE] wow he cant aim for shit
[QUOTE=Inzalonus;35954073]holy fuck that looks so fluid[/QUOTE] Check out 01:46 to see how the console auto-aim feature compensates while enemy bullet-times. If he's supposed to have a visual/maneuver "handicap", how did he get the kill? Furthermore, check out 4:30. Fucking ridonculous aim-helping feature I must say. Crosshair is 1 inch to the right, but all shots fired hit the body (as you can see from the bullet impact). I'm still laughing...
[QUOTE=krakadict;35954206]wow he cant aim for shit[/QUOTE] Like I said, people are too reliant on autoaim. In fact its kind of odd its not in this game due to the fact it was in Red Dead Redemption and if irc GTAIV.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35954049]Ah, must be like how Max Payne 2 starts in the hospital with Winterson dead, or how Max Payne 1 starts at the top of the Aesir tower.[/QUOTE] Hope so. I was going to warn about GT's reviews since they have spoiled some plot twists in a ridiculous amount of reviews. Pretty sad really, these people call themselves journalists. [editline]14th May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=N-12_Aden;35954231]Like I said, people are too reliant on autoaim. In fact its kind of odd its not in this game due to the fact it was in Red Dead Redemption and if irc GTAIV.[/QUOTE] It is in. In both SP and MP.
It is? With the way they were shooting it didn't really look like it. My bad. Can it be turned off?
On RDR I always took the auto aim off as it's much more fun without it... but everyone else used it so I just got bored of it and had to put it back on.
you choose whether you want it or not before you get put in a game so you're not put with people using a different aiming system
[QUOTE=N-12_Aden;35954309]It is? With the way they were shooting it didn't really look like it. My bad. Can it be turned off?[/QUOTE] Yeah the auto aim can be turned off.... it could on RDR too and was like a seperate gamemode/hardcore I think.
[QUOTE=N-12_Aden;35954309]It is? With the way they were shooting it didn't really look like it. My bad. Can it be turned off?[/QUOTE] Of course. Turn it off in MP and the game puts you against people with auto-aim turned off, and vice versa.
I'm sure the console pad controls are fine. You just have to not suck.
I turned Auto-Aim off in RDR, same for MP1-2
[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;35954336]Yeah the auto aim can be turned off.... it could on RDR too and was like a seperate gamemode/hardcore I think.[/QUOTE] I think you could normally turn it off in RDR no matter what mode you were playing. You didn't have a choice in hardcore if I remember correctly. Still its nice to have a choice.
ninjas fuck
Funny thing, tomorrow is the release date for Diablo 3 and Max Payne 3...both waited for more than 12 and 9 years respectively, both third games in critically acclaimed series Still, i have no interest in D3 and my MP3 is coming on 1st june so tomorrow have none significance to me...
I haven't been paying attention to the release date, is tomorrow all versions or just 360/PS3?
[QUOTE=GetBent;35954395]I haven't been paying attention to the release date, is tomorrow all versions or just 360/PS3?[/QUOTE] Consoles, in US.
Now I'll just wait for my country's game magazine's score, it usually manages to be fair.
[QUOTE=Muntu;35954424]Consoles, in US.[/QUOTE] Booo.
[QUOTE=GetBent;35954395]I haven't been paying attention to the release date, is tomorrow all versions or just 360/PS3?[/QUOTE] 1st June for PC isn't bad choice for them... If I was publisher, I won't release game at same day as Diablo 3 either You got 15 days to let Diablo 3 fever calm down and then serve game
