[QUOTE=Dr Bob;35969912]Here's the full version: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MojF4YIgzg[/media][/QUOTE] And here's a version I uploaded if anyone hates buffering videos. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzbdww7mC7w[/media]
Goddamn I want this game so bad, but I've been spending too much money on video games recently.
So far the game is amazing, When I play i can't help but feel like i'm John McClane.
I pre-ordered the game off steam and it seems I didn't receive the first and second games, does it take a little bit for them to show up or am I experiencing a problem? Sorry if this has been brought up before

Decided I'll wait for the PC version. Crossing my fingers in hopes it doesn't turn out like Grand Theft Auto 4 PC port, but the two week delay makes me hopeful they're taking it seriously, and making sure the PC version will be up to snuff on release. Will pick up Diablo 3 when I place the pre-order so I will have something to do in these upcoming two weeks.

Main thing here is that GTA 4 was ported in that 6 months and MP3 is being developed from the start for PC...delay is probably to prevent piracy and Diablo 3

Realistically, it'll probably be ready to be shipped in a few days.
I'm definitely wanting to pick this up when the PC release happens.
Is there any screenshots of Mona yet? sorry if i'm late.
I'd buy it on console if it were any other game with a delayed release...but I just don't feel right because it's Max Payne. When you have a series born, deeply rooted, and memorized as one of the finer PC titles, buying it on a console just doesn't feel right.

I've been playing for a couple hours now, I'd love to answer any burning questions from our patient PC gamers.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35970479]Is that a bad thing though? (also join the facepunch crew)[/QUOTE] I meant it as a good thing, who does not want to be John McClane, Sadly I don't think i can join the group. I got it for the PS3. Unless it does not matter.
Has anybody found out if I get Retro Max for buying the Special Edition? I've been sending R* about an e-mail a day about it as of a week ago, but I think they're busy. I'd be pissed as shit if I have to buy it a few weeks after and be late to the party. Christ. Also, supposedly there is going to be another Q&A on May 24th.

this game is awesome, but why does the screen flash every now and then?
That's the camera flash for when the game takes pictures of you and sends them to the government. [editline]16th May 2012[/editline] Oh yes, on the [url=http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae61/mashak_photos/0871.jpg]classic Max Payne[/url], I was told that you can mix and match clothing, and that you can still use the model in the promo image. I don't have the game, so don't trust me.
[QUOTE=Jackald;35970727]That offer was only available up until the 15th (today) sorry, you just missed it :([/QUOTE] Ah damn, I had a feeling that was it

I know Max Payne was released for consoles too, but shootdodging just won't ever feel right without a mouse.
Okay I went ahead and tried to join the crew. also decide to buy the Rockstar pass.
[QUOTE=RaxaHax;35971547]I've been playing for a couple hours now, I'd love to answer any burning questions from our patient PC gamers.[/QUOTE] How much does Max actually interact with the environment while shoot-dodging (Tumbling down stairs, slamming against walls etc.)?
[QUOTE=RaxaHax;35971547]I've been playing for a couple hours now, I'd love to answer any burning questions from our patient PC gamers.[/QUOTE] I haven't heard anything about this, but when dual wielding is it possible to fire your weapons independently? As in the left trigger fires the left gun, right fires the right. In all the gameplay I've seen, it looks like they just run off the same button.
[QUOTE=RaxaHax;35971547]I've been playing for a couple hours now, I'd love to answer any burning questions from our patient PC gamers.[/QUOTE] Do you auto-pickup guns if you have an empty slot? I'm thinking of doing a one-gun run, switching only when out of ammo.

I was playing Payne Killer, and I was Payne on Hoboken Tenaments. I hit my bullet time, dived out a window. [B]AND THEN[/B] landed in the middle of a pile of enemies who proceeded to rape me. [editline]15th May 2012[/editline] Also Mini-30 all day. [editline]15th May 2012[/editline] And I think the console crew is unnecessary, just sayin'.
[QUOTE=10050;35973655]Do you auto-pickup guns if you have an empty slot? I'm thinking of doing a one-gun run, switching only when out of ammo.[/QUOTE] You don't auto pickup guns.

[QUOTE=sw174;35973694][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQYENa-7Lak[/media][/QUOTE] Somehow, I think that's not a glitch/bug like it says on the video title
[QUOTE=TheWhiteFox1;35973473]How much does Max actually interact with the environment while shoot-dodging (Tumbling down stairs, slamming against walls etc.)?[/QUOTE] Shootdodging is really dependent on where you are, if you hit a wall it'll basically end right there, and it'll probably end up with you dying.. Most of the time you'll just clip objects, and you won't go [I]tumbling[/I] down stairs but you will painfully slide down them. My most 'painful' screw-up was when I jumped back at the stadium level, and Max's shoulder hit the corner of the concrete at the end of the bleachers. He ended up bouncing off of it and landing flat on his back. [editline]16th May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=10050;35973655]Do you auto-pickup guns if you have an empty slot? I'm thinking of doing a one-gun run, switching only when out of ammo.[/QUOTE] Nope, you have to pick up all the guns manually, but ammo salvaging is automatic. If you pick up a gun while moving Max picks it up while rolling, so you don't have to stop and press the button. The way the inventory is done is really cool aesthetically. You can carry three weapons: Two single handed guns and one two handed gun (As Max has two holsters). If you have a two handed gun in your inventory and you're using a pistol, Max carries the two handed gun in his left hand while shooting the pistol with his right (He also holds the two-handed weapon between his arm and his body during reloads, which is a nice touch). However, if you have two pistols and a rifle, switching to dual pistols makes you drop the rifle.
