Max Payne 3 announced!

Sounds like the only things it has in common with the previous games are the name and the bullet-time effect. You would have thought Rockstar of all companies could afford to develop a new ip for this.
 
Wow, he looks like he has aged quite a bit, I really didn't expect him to be balding. No relation the to the other two games WHAT THE FUCK BRAZIL? So much for the "Gangster/Comic book feel" That blows! , they could have brought Mona back because after all she survives the second one if you play on the hardest difficulty, they could have written that into the story for sure.
 
Rockstar should have called it quits after GTA3. That was their last really good, original, video game
 
I'm not too surprised by this. Remedy isn't doing it and I guess Rockstar wants to reinvent the wheel.

It might be a good game, but there's no way it's going to live up to the first two games. It looks like they've changed too much in it to make it a worthy addition to the franchise.

Fuck reinventing the wheel. Some things are best left alone. Rockstar I hope you go out of business.

You guys should note that there is no

on Rockstar Game's website. Nothing for the Wii either.

If it comes out in the winter 2009, I will be playing Section 8 at that time.

Yeah that makes me sad :(
 
So I just checked the website, not PC logo. That's a load of crap for sure. I mean, they wouldn't be anything without their PC players...that just frosts my nuts. I'm thinking of boycotting. I want MP3 on PC!
 
Here's hoping the logo thing is just the webadmin not getting a memo...nobody's officially said anything about MP3 not being on the PC yet, AIUI.

That said: someone did a transcript of the GI article, and it appears that Rockstar Vancouver at least has a plan...but the plan doesn't include James McCaffrey's voice.
 
according to the article on shacknews, it supposed to be on xbox 360, ps3 and pc for the winter.

Yea thats what I was thinking. I'm interested in the game but you always have to worry when another group takes over a good franchise.
 
Who cares if hes old? That doesnt mean the game is going to be shitty. Its probably going to be bloodier and grittier. The same shits gets boring after awhile

I have my doubts that this game will be any good, but I hope I'm proven wrong :/
 
I wasn't fond of the way they changed Max's appearance in part 2, but it was still a good game. I'll reserve judgment until I see some actual gameplay, or play it myself.

The game was originally scheduled for release in late 2009.[4] However, it was pushed back to 2010 alongside several other Take-Two Interactive franchises in order to "benefit from having more development time." In June 2010, the game was again pushed back to 2011.[5] On December 21, it was not present on the 2011-2012 calendar year, and was pushed back again.[6]

May as well be.
 
The first was a freaking brilliant game, the second merely a lot of fun.

Please don´t crap on this legacy Rockstar, thanks.
 
I'm surprised it's still listed as coming out on the PC because Rockstar seems to have given up on the platform. It probably won't matter because it looks like they changed the game too much for me to even care about it. It's too bad Remedy sold out to Microsoft because this could have been a good game if they were doing it.
 
I was at least willing to give Rockstar Vancouver a chance on Rio Noir, but for it to basically disappear information-wise is worse than their just cancelling it outright a la Mirror's Edge 2.
 
I can't remember where I read it but Rockstar did re-confirm that Max Payne 3 is still being worked on.

And I for one am very glad it's in Rockstar's hands now; Remedy messed up with Alan Wake in that they focused so much on the setting and the story that they completely forgot that games need to have good gameplay. PC-only players, you have not missed anything.
 
first one bored me to the point that I stopped playing after a couple of hours. I tried at least 4 or 5 times to get into that game but couldn't.
 
Game screams ADD and consolization.

Edit:I loved both 1 and 2.
 
it's not called Max Payne Forever, is it?
Would be cool though...

does anyone think that the picture makes him look a bit like the orange guy from Sin City (movie)?

Both 1 and 2 were awesome. Rarely have I played a game more than once, and I played both of these more than once.
 
I absolutely love the first two in the series...such great games. Fun story, great gunplay, and although the 'bullet-time' feature could be called a gimmick, I don't think it's ever been done as well as it was in Max Payne.

I really hope this is just as good if not better as the first two!
 
Is this even really still coming out on the PC? I was under the impression that Rockstar was basically done with the PC past their many months afterthought releases of GTAIV's DLC.

No Red Dead Redemption, no LA Noire plans...I'll be surprised if I see this on the PC ultimately.

Oh well, I'm sure we're not missing much. This isn't written by Sam Lake (ConstiMaxFace) so I doubt it will have a story as good as the first two....or maybe it won't have a story at all.

fuck I forgot rockstar took over this. I'm still bummed that we didn't get RDR, and no LA Noire (not yet, at least).

Hopefully they're not going to "cancel" the PC release in a few months..
