Max Payne is so-far the most innovative 3d-shooter yet. Developed by Remedy and released by God Games and 3d Realms, this game pushes the limits in today’s standard 3d-shooter. It features crystal sharp graphics, movie like in-game cinematics, and some...
Pros: Bullet time is pretty nifty. Cons: Really odd "hits", clipping is almost nonexistant.
Max Payne. I'd almost forgotten how long ago this game had been talked about before it finally got over its stage fright and decided to get itself out onto shelves.
All of the initial signs on this game had it earmarked to be another...
Pros: Bullet time. Dark, violent gameworld & gameplay. Brilliant graphics. Superior sound. Replay value. Cons: Too bloody hard. Lifespan. AI (at times). Not subtle.
Max Payne is the gaming version of a John Woo film. Or possibly The Matrix ie. An ultra cool, slick, and stylish game that oozes dark humour and class. Developed by Remedy, Max Payne hit the PC in 2001, boasting several...
Pros: Non-stop action. Well executed Bullet Time gameplay. Superb voice acting. Cons: Pretty short and no multiplayer.
Ok, I admit it. I though Max Payne would be a bust. In fact, I was so certain of it that I prophesied Max Payne would be the Daikatana of 2001. Humbled, I now shamefacedly struggle to remove my foot from my mouth.
Pros: Amazing visuals and sound, plays like a dream, stunning effects straight from The Matrix Cons: A little short, needs a VERY powerful computer
For three or four years, Max Payne was one of the most mysterious titles in development. All that was known was the storyline: your wife and kid were slaughtered three years ago, and you went from average cop to bitter undercover agent in the New...
Pros: Graphics, sound, several "twists" in the game. Cons: The gameplay and somewhat average A.I.
Note: Max Payne contains graphic violence, strong sexual themes and strong language. Max Payne by Remedy and 3d Realms the blockbuster hit, that ushered another era of gaming, the antihero crime fighter, and another era of violent gaming, where the ...
Pros: bullet time, excellent plot, superb pace, bullet time Cons: a tad too short, I hated the comic book bits
This third person shooter had been in development for a long time, slipping in and out of release dates. Finally it was released to the public during summer last year. Remedy were the folks behind it and it was their debut title. And a damn good one....
Pros: Bullet Time
Easy to Play with Mouse & Keyboard Cons: No FMV's
Slow Story
Story's Too Long
Little Replay
Take your noir genre and add in bullet time. That’s how one can best describe Max Payne. The game is a beauty in motion, but suffers in other areas. First off, Max Payne is about a police officer living the American dream until he comes home to find ...
Pros: Gun blasting, bullet dodging, intense and poetic. Cons: Save often or pay the concequences.
When I played Max Payne, I was pretty much expecting a relatively brainless, straight up hold the fire button down and blow away everything you can before you get your legs ripped off with high caliber explosives type a game, so I was really suprised...
Pros: Bullet time, editor with many user designed levels to download Cons: Short, can be tedious at times
Max Payne is a game that everyone has been talking about for years. Over the past 3 years, G.O.D. has been promising to release this "revolutionary" action game. After waiting so long, I was gearing up for a level of disappointment on par with...
Pros: Simply stunning graphics, very good gameplay, a solid game all around! Cons: Intense system resources required to really enjoy everything Max has to offer.
Introduction
I play a decent amount of computer games. Not near as much since I’ve gotten married and had a son, but I still get my licks in, albeit usually very late at night! FPS (First Person Shooters) are one of my favorite game genres,...
Pros: Incredible graphics, nicely challenging, great sound as well. Cons: Not as groundbreaking as I had hoped.
For four long years this has been in development and there was a complete media blackout on the game some time ago so details have been sketchy but now it is here. Was it worth the wait?
Pros: excellent graphics, great story, not too hard, very fun Cons: no multiplayer, pretty short, need a powerful PC
Max Payne has been in development for what seems like forever. But the final product was worth the wait. Max Payne sports amazing graphics, a unique third person camera angle that doesn't get in the way, and an engaging story. Although similar in some...
Pros: Excellent idea becomes an excellent game. Truly cinematic, entertaining and, most of all, fun. Cons: Controls are a little iffy at first, but then it's all cake, baby.
As I stepped onto the train, I knew this wasn't going to be my day. I was Bogart in an old black and white film; but this one was going to be sprayed with red. As the train came to a stop, the trouble began.
Pros: Extensive game play, incredible rich graphics, revolutionary blend of genres. Cons: No Multiplayer Mode, High Requirements for decent game-play.
I will start my review -I never do- with a short info about the company itself, since they for me have a great but uncertain future in the industry...and they deserve the space.
