At one point, Passos backed away from an ascending stairway with his hands raised, where a gang member walked down with his gun pointed. The level even provided a nice sniping diversion, where Max escorted his pal from afar, taking out any enemies in Passos’ way. Tight concession areas saw Max doing his signature slow-mo dive into small groups of enemies, littering the area (and his foes) with bullets. The stage I witnessed had Max and his buddy Passos blazing their way through a large gang-controlled stadium. The action is consistently fast and frantic, with slight interventions of dialogue and exposition.
So any of you PC elitists who yearn for the days of old when console games were the afterthought, rest assured that MP3 will have plenty more than what the 360 and PS3 versions can offer.Īs for the actual single-player experience, all I can say is, “boing.” The original Max Payne set so many standards with regards to action shooters, and MP3 certainly doesn’t skimp on the quality that its predecessors were known for. The game has been developed from the ground up with this platform in mind, even incorporating several DX11 features - which is still oddly uncommon in a lot of games, for some silly reason. Rockstar stressed that Max Payne 3 was not a PC port. After having seen the series’ third installment in action on NVIDIA’s new 680 hardware, I can’t see this PC trend breaking anytime soon for me. Since then, I have continued the tradition, playing its sequel, Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, on the same platform the first day it launched. Max Payne made its original debut on the PC, which was also where I was first exposed to the series, personally. Max Payne 3 (PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) Let me tell you, there aren’t enough after-sex cigarettes in the world. The second was a multiplayer session, where yours truly got his filthy hands all over MP3‘s mutual gameplay. My first moment was at NVIDIA’s Editor’s Day event during GDC 2012, where the game was shown making sweet, sweet love to the newly released GeForce GTX 680. You can bet your firstborn child that I’ve since jumped at every occasion to see me some Max Payne 3. Then, just like that, boom … we’re given a taste of what’s to come. Ever since the third installment was announced about 63 f*ckin’ years ago, every morning has felt like a lie to me those subsequent years were spent in complete darkness, subject to a world where Max Payne 3 was out there, somewhere, and I didn’t have a clue what it was or when to expect it. I’m going to slip on my flamboyant fanboy hat for a second here and say that I adore the Max Payne series.
