Great game, I don't care for his unstable state of mind.

Its the kind of game where you can play a great great level only for him to 'wake up' the next level.

When I play max payne, I wanna wield duel ingrams and shoot shit while I fly through the air, sideways, in slow-mo.

I don't want to have a dream im drowning or something.

Some games I admire the storyline, no long avoiding the elephant in the room, Deus Ex has a great one and for me is half the game - Max Payne's constant monologue of what's happening right in front of him is something I can live without.

'Life was good. A house on the Jersey side across the river. The smell of freshly cut lawns. The sounds of children playing. A beautiful wife and a baby girl. The American dream come true. But dreams have a nasty habit of going bad when you're not looking.'

This junk ruins the game for me.

The best fucking thing about Max Payne is the noir setting.

The monologue is cheesy and laughable in the first, and in the second its just desperate.

End of from me, I hope the third one will be less of a great game parodying an awful comic.

i second that. the way the story is brought to the reader is different in a good way. I mean i stopped reading comics when i was 10 maybe, and had no desire what so ever to pick one up, but max payne was instantly cool reading. ill be damned if those arent some of the very best lines ive seen in any game.

the fucked up dreams were great. I didnt really like that running thing very much in either of the games (i mean it couldve been more creative. YES, even more creative) but it was excellent addition never the less.

Retro isn't a cool thing Allan, I'm not joking, no one gives a shit about you buying Contra 1 for the NES or other games older than you or some shit because there's always going to be newer games like Contra 3 and 4 which are better and improved, especially in the case of Contra 4 which takes the weapons directly from the first game.


You're just a fucking cop-out. Also depends on what you class as "retro".

Go buy some decent games you fucking pussy.

I play games that are fun, I don't play games because they're old. I play good games like Donkey Kong I don't play old games like Dragons Lair SNES because even though it's old its a disgraceful platforming game.

wield duel ingrams and shoot shit while I fly through the air, sideways, in slow-mo.
