  • Abstract:  The mess that is ex-cop Max Payne is back for another tale of angst and defeat. Except this time the tale is not noir nor it is even in New York. He is the same ole' Max but now up to his eyeballs in the politics and crime of Brazil's Sao Paulo. There ...

  • A mechanic that was popularized with the original Max Payne is bullet time, and as mentioned on the previous page, it makes a return here. When activated, the game slows down to a crawl, allowing you to better aim at one or more enemies - perfect for ...

  • So does Max Payne 3 warrant a purchase? Absolutely! Although I mentioned some technical difficulties, the vast majority of the game runs silky smooth. Also, the difficulty curve only adds to the satisfaction of beating a level and especially so if bullet-...

  • Abstract:  Those of you who made it through Max Payne 2 (and happen to possess a particularly well-focused memory) might recollect a hint of optimism in our hero's closing line: "I had a dream of my wife. She was dead. But it was alright." Well, nine years later,...
