The Slowdown: Max's Brazilian Wax

The Slowdown take a gamble with an early, speculative opinion piece on Rockstar's upcoming Max Payne 3. After tackling the deep list of apparent changes made to the concept, the text shifts its focus to the features that originally gave the series its identity. In the writer's mind, these features lay in-between interaction versus action.

The article then proceeds to speculate that Rockstar's decision to push Max deeper into the inhumanity of the Brazilian favelas has forced the developers to utilize a more easily discernible, more readily marked set of symbols and all-black distinctions instead of the subtle greys of its predecessors.

Against Rockstar senior developer Barrera's view of noir as "looking at a world in a bleak way", the writer attempts to find out how Max's downward spiral relates to that of Nico Bellic in GTAIV. Finally, while the aim of the article is not to be a qualitative assessment of the game's potential merits, the writer nevertheless asks whether Max Payne 3 will be able to properly motivate the inclusion of its titular hero.

I got 80% trophy completion on Ragnarok but left a few of the battles. Will come back to it one day.

Miraak82 309d ago

Dragon Quest 11 is my top pick

RpgSama309d ago

Dragon Quest XI was such an AMAZING game, I had a blast from the very beginning all the way to the very end, it actually got better the more you played, full of surprises as well.

Another game that I enjoyed from the very beginning all the way to the end of the 100% completion was Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Really, really, really fun game with a great heartfelt story.

Where is Horizon Zero Dawn?? where is Ghost of Tsushima?? I just got my Platinum on HZD and is now trying to finish the Frozen Wild expansion. so much care and love went into that game and it really shows. I especially adore the lore and have sunk many hours listening to the logs and reading journals. the back story is great and the gameplay is awesome. can't wait to replay on the hardest difficulty on NG+. next in my list would be to finish GoTsushima

Tacoboto309d ago

Ghost was fantastic especially after Iki Island and the PS5 upgrade. 100%'d that, Horizon Forbidden West (not ZD), GoW (not yet Ragnarok), Spider-Man, and R&C: Rift Apart.

Each one absolutely worth it.

Aloymetal309d ago (Edited 309d ago )

100% I would like to add to you list RDR2, amazing as well and the perks from getting the Legend Of The East outfit is awesome.
Sekiro as well, have to play twice to get it but it's worth it!

Demetrius309d ago

I agree I'm on my 2nd playthroughs of both horizon forbidden West(zero dawn I played also) ghost of Tsushima except I'm replaying it on PS5 this time, the iki island expansion is amazing

ClayRules2012309d ago

Yeah, GoT was already an AMAZING game on PS4, but playing it on PS5, along with that expansion, just even better.

Elda309d ago

I just started my copy of GOW:R, enjoying it so far.

DefenderOfDoom2309d ago (Edited 309d ago )
