IT LOOKS LIKE BLOODY TRASH
I LOVED, i mean LOVED TO DEATH max payne 1 and 2. Remedy is a great developer and I only wish they weren't taking years and years on Alan Wake (which I'm very excited about).
So whose developing Max Payne 3? rock f*cking star.
I admit, I used to like rockstar a lot. GTA 1 and 2 were amazing. 3 was a ton of fun too, but then they started to waver. Once we got to GTA 4, which in my opinion is a crap ass game things were really bad . Anyways, here they are to do what is likely ruin a great franchise.
What was your favorite thing about the max payne games? Mine was the film noir style setting. The dialogue was well written, the character development was intriguing and the story, while insane and slightly difficult to follow at times, was at least well presented and a good cohesive package. Those games had what so many current games fail to achieve: Character. Like, look at these:

Are you sh*tting me up the ass? Is that fat ass, bearded guy supposed to be Max? Why does it take place in some slum ass 3rd world country? Why is the SKY BLUE? Where has my film noir style gone? (Max Payne 1 and 2 took place ONLY at night and in 1 it never stopped snowing, just some trivia for you). This looks like a cross between farcry 2 and gta4, which is like crossing crap with dirt.
Why must rockstar turn everything into "bling bling I'm so gangsta tuff"?

Yes. This is wrong. I'm finnish and I concider max payne as some degree of national treasure. Then rockstar goes and kills it, rapes it, modifies it's beautiful face, reanimates it, puts on makeup and sticks shit in his mouth to make him sound different.AC10 said:
Funny, it was just last night, looking at the first game cover, that my lad said how constipated he looked lolLord George said:
OT: Im not sure i even want to try the 3rd game. I loved the 1st and 2nd, but this one looks completely rubbish. Its practically a new concept, the original story line is mostly gone, and the character himself just doesnt look like someone i'd like to play =(
A constipated smug git was bad enough, but this dodgy looking man is NOT the Max i loved to play and is totally turning me off the new game.
Not to further the necromancy, here, but the major issue isn't that it's a dumpy videogame character so much as it's Max Payne, the only noir figurehead in videogames, going from Guy Who Looks Like Character From Modern Maltese Falcon to Guy Who Looks Like Cousin Frank Who Raids Fridge for Hot Wings.DaMullet said:

Hmm yes...but you never see that treatment applied to females in video game land. I'm sure that any woman in the game will have the 'required' two-watermelons-on-a-stick treatment.DaMullet said:
