Max Payne 3: Slow Motion For Me Baby

When the original Max Payne premiered years ago it was an original take on action, and adventure. On the PC the game was open to modders who were able to take the developers vision and push the game play. One of the illest mechanics the game had, was a slow motion/time distortion tactic. This allowed you as the player to strategical battle enemies in the game the way you saw fit. Tactically by slowing time down you could make impactful kills, get out of sticky situations by dodging, rolling, and have a great fun manipulating the environment. Max Payne's story was a dark, and twisted affair that lent a film noir quality to the game's progression. With Max Payne 3 set to sail, what does Rockstar games have in store for us?

The screen shots say summer holiday, not gloomy noire MP....Games are looking more and more the same...I want the art style from the first games. I am ever so ambivalent until it releases.

Ex-Rockstar Dev Finally Explains Why Small Planes Randomly Crashed in GTA San Andreas

Former Rockstar Games Technical Director Obbe Vermeij has finally revealed why some planes would randomly crash in GTA: San Andreas.

This fly by feature was on the cutting room floor due to the random plane crashes and it's one of those things I'm so thankful made it into the final version as these random fly by and crashes make the world seem more alive on the extremely limited PS2 hardware you needed everything you could possibly get in a open world to convey that feeling.

And accross hundreds of hours of gameplay I probably died around 3 times as a result of these fly by failures but I loved every time it happened

It made the world feel more human, and honestly kinda insane that even today with all these open world games, almost no one can capture that like R* even when compared to their ps2 games

Lol, I remember those. I vaguely remember dying from one crashing into my car once too.

Will never forget these games on the PS2 and Xbox. Max Payne 3 was awesome, more so the arcade mode.

Can’t wait to replay these games with updated graphics.

Would also like a remastered Max Payne3.

Hope it's done better then the GTA trilogy.

EazyC113d ago

Indeed - and if it is another shameless cash grab, they shouldn't bother. It's an insult to these classic games.
