Really encourages the player to be less *boring* so to say.By this point in his life, Max has effectively hit rock bottom and has been spending all of his time searching for meaning in a bottle. When playing on harder difficulties, you MUST go guns blazing, make every shot count, and dodge thru the air to get the first shot in. Ammo is plentiful, however you cannot carry quite as much as you might prefer, encouraging you to make your shots count during long shootouts. Max can only carry three guns, two in holsters, and one two handed weapon. He can pop a few pain pills and regain some health. Max has health, and it does not regenerate, with the exception of the last tiny bit of his life. Hard to understand why he cannot literally step over a suitcase on the ground. sometimes controls can be clunky, my only con was max's collision with the world. You can get through this game despite your skill. ![]() While some might argue that the game is too hard, turning the difficulty down and turning on aim assist is always available. Its quite fun to do, and watch happen, making Max that much more of a bad-ass. In some cases, I was able to leap sideways into a room while carrying a machine gun, and clear a room of a dozen bad-guys. This Rambo like approach to the game encourages you to take out as many enemies as possible as quickly as possible, sometimes before they even know whats going on. Most often, Max will engage a battle guns blazing, leaping through a window or down a roof, hoping to shoot as many bad-guys as possible before hitting the ground. Every gunfight seems like an epic movie scene *untill* you fudge up and smack your head on a wall. Max can leap in any direction while slowing time, and shooting like mad. Max has the ability to slow his perception of time, and get a couple well placed shots. Gameplay- Max Payne is a third person shooter, mostly over the shoulder. Even the sound track is perfectly picked for this game. And Rockstar overlooks no detail in projecting a cinema quality video game. James McCaffrey is the voice of Max Payne. ![]() Max's emotions are intense, and when Max becomes angry or breaks down in tears, you forget that he isn't real and someone is acting. The story makes this game so damn awesome, Max is a valiant hero by no means, but he does have a sense of good that he tries to make out. The bad guys have it just as bad, ill spare you, but it is quite gruesome to see someone shot up and down. Aside from max taking 8 bullets in a day, his suit shows its wear and tear with him, a bullet to the leg will make max bleed until the end of the level. Every bullet, every punch to the face, leaves a painful obvious mark. When Max gets roughed up, it looks so painful and gritty, you can almost feel it yourself. Sounds somewhat cliché, but his intense bad-ass-ery makes up for it. Max is an ex-cop with a dead family, a drinking problem, nothing to lose, a temper, and a gun. The story immerses you in Max's horror-ridden past, and showing him at his worse. Max Payne, the protagonist, is a serious bad-ass. ![]() First of all, if you are familiar with the Max Payne series, or even Rockstar games, the game is basically what most would imagine.
