Got some free time and finished it myself, already seen it mentioned here, yeah, that bastard LMG guard on Chapter 12 eh!?

 

Overall, it's hard to say really, it's not quite a full Max Payne game, I mean, it's nearly there, and certain chapters are bang on, especially towards the end, and especially Chapter 13! Chapter 14 I was reminded more of Die Hard 2, which, considering the already made John McClane comparisons just made me smile. There was a missed opportunity to have the nightmares back, I pointed at least two points in the story where Max is asleep for a long time which could have easily thrown in a dream sequence as a throwback to the classic games.

Are you serious?

 

Max Payne 3 will surely compete for the GOTY. I know it's your opinion, and I'm just giving you mine, but I'd suggest to get MP3 instead of waiting for a Spider-Man game that probably won't get nowhere near a Batman: Arkham City, for example.

 

Just a tip. I know you do what you want with your money. wink.gif

I've found some audio of Captain Baseball Bat as a Multiplayer Character in the audio files: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49393425/captain_b...all_bat_boy.wav

 

Plus Classic Max Audio is hilarious: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/49393425/max_original.wav

Holy sh*t, those Classic Max taunts are f*cking great.

 

Oh and the comic was superb. It's cool how I got memories from playing the games by reading the comic.

Considering GTA V isn't being released this year, I don't think so.

A clear example of the comedy missing from Max Payne 3. It made some attempts but I don't remember bursting out laughing at any time.

 

Need to get back on MP, I sort of left on my peak.

What? When those lines were spoken in Max Payne 1, it was done seriously.

 

Now, Rockstar has made them hilarious.

Just ordered this on Amazon, the linear game play made me weary but I got suckered in by about a half a dozen different positive video reviews insisting that there was immense single player replay value. Is it true fellas? Does this game keep you coming back for more? I'm essentially using it to hold me over until we find out what the hell is going on with V

October is the date that every GTA has come out,except IV because it was delayed.San Andreas only had two months of marketing and it was the best selling game on the PS2! So GTA V should come out in October,but if it doesn't then at the very latest,March 2013

Rockstar are brilliant. If you're caught cheating in Max Payne they wont completely ban you but they will put in a server with other cheaters.

Are you kidding me ? Max Payne 1 and 2 may have been super dark with there content but they were full of humor.

 

Rockstar tried to mock the style, but it wasn't anywhere neat as funny. I knew they weren't being entirely serious but they weren't funny either.

Recently Rockstar recommended the MPK as a good weapon to use in deathmatch. Is it a better gun than the SAF .40 though? I really can't decide. I want to buy one of them (in game) and I dont want to make the wrong choice

Yeah we got an email around in work about it. It's great becuase now I wont have to deal with even more people ringing in asking why they got banned when they're cheating.

The MPK's good but not great. Kind of an all-rounder. It's better than the saf .40 I'd say.

I think the thing is with all guns you've got to stick with them and rank em up. I got the Mini 30 up to rank 9 (anyone know what the top? 10?) but I've gone back to the AK-47 to try and rank that up -- and now I'm getting killed again sometimes where I'd suvive encounters.

 

The MPK sometimes doesn't have the range to be a winner in Nova Esperanca but it's good for Hoboken.

I bought the Saf. 40 because it had better ratings than the MPK in all areas except for range although its still good for small maps like Branco Headquarters because of it's almost unmatched rate of fire. To answer your question yes 10 is the max rank for weapons I know this because I've gotten both the Mini 30 and the AK47 up to level and they'll go no further.

 

On a side note single handed weapons seem to rank up a lot slower than 2 handed weapons. Its actually quite a chore to rank them up for accessories.

ROCKSTAR_VIENNA from Rockstar Newswire just posted the best comment ever!

Someone asked "When's the Max Payne 3 marketing gonna end"

ROCKSTAR_VIENNA replyed:Probably "in a few months time" XD

Okay I'm thinking of getting the game today. I was wondering how long the single player lasted for you guys?

 

And (for people who played the classic Max Payne games) is it a true successor to the classics? I mean is it still a Max Payne game or just a generic shooter?

The best advice anyone can give is to get the game and be your own judge. I went on a rant a few pages back about what I don't like, but that's just my take on it. Other old schoolers think it's great. So rather than bothering to determine if one side is blinded by nostalgia or if the other side is blinded by Rockstar fanboyism, it's best to give the game a go yourself uninfluenced.
