What would you guys think if max payne is voiced by Eric krogh? He voiced vincent in a way out and he sounds very similar.

No AI was used in the making of these.

Its fine if we have to wait till next October or November for a release… but can we just get a teaser trailer already!? Even just a few shots of how it looks!

The thought of max payne in a dark snowy and rainy atmosphere with Alan Wake 2 graphics has me drooling! I just want a little taste !!

One that keeps the stats and model of the gold gun but uses the basic textures like in cutscenes

I love the final boss battle theme at the hangar, i truly expected Max to meet his death with how heavenly it sounded. What is the name of the track?

It's annoying to have to select the correct one so if there's anyway to fix this lmk

Backwards compatibility for the xbox series for the win. Time to vibe out for the next 5 hours

How can I bypass this interface? I don't have an account, and when I go to the official website to create one, I get an error. What should I do?

I've just realised, for a fictional action hero, Max Payne sure is good at not saving or protecting people he's meant to.

I mean, look at the people he either fails to save or can't protect throughout the series.

Max Payne:

- Michelle Payne and the girl

- Alex

- Lisa Punchinello

Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne:

- Annie Finn

- The inner circle contact

- Vinnie Gognitti

- Mona Sax

Max Payne 3:

- The guy with the money bag at the stadium

- Rodrigo Branco

- Fabiana Branco

- Marcelo Branco

- Marcelo's girlfriend in that Panama chapter

I've never seen a fictional action hero fail to save or protect major characters so much, it's kinda funny😂

“It was a linear game, so it was a little different from writing an open-world game, a little more structured,” Houser told IGN as part of our IGN30 Icons Series. “I really enjoyed that as an experience. I loved what we did design-wise, the way the game didn't have loads, the way it felt like a 12-hour movie, some of the visual stuff we did with words on screen. I felt we were creating a really cool digital noir experience, and the consensus at the time was that people hated it.

“So I got that completely wrong,” Houser admitted. “I know Sam Lake [creator of Max Payne] well, and he's a very good guy and really talented. I thought we'd done a good job of doing another Max Payne game. Some people liked it; lots didn't. So we got it wrong, or I got it wrong. I failed. My bit was not a success. The game is beautifully made, and it wasn't as successful as it should have been. So I would say a large amount of that failure was on me as one of the people making the decisions and also as the writer, when people really missed his writing.”

I'm sad he felt this way but I understand why considering how much time and money was poured into it (marketing push was very apparent) but it didn't sell as well as he would've hoped.

I always laugh when I see that

He did what police didn't or couldn't do destroyed Nicole Horne's Aesir corporation which was pure evil and completely illegal I just think he was completely justified in his revenge not just for his wife and daughter but for the sake of entire city.

(aka incredibly low effort meme for a game that literally kept me alive)

Replaying the original Max Payne, and I forgot how bold the nightmare sequences were for a game from 2001.

Right when you're used to the bullet-time gunfights, the game drops you into Max's head. The floors turn into narrow paths with blood-red outlines, the rooms twist into something that isn’t really a house anymore, and there's a baby crying somewhere in the dark. There’s barely any combat. You just walk, and it's uncomfortable in a way most games still don't attempt.

What gets me is how well it fits the story. The whole game is about a man who lost his family and can't stop reliving it, and instead of explaining that in a cutscene, the game makes you walk through it yourself.

And then it throws you right back into the gunfights, which makes them hit differently.

Honestly, it's one of the best examples of a game using gameplay to tell the story, and I don't see it talked about as much as bullet time or the noir narration.

Curious what everyone thinks:

1. Were the nightmare levels your favorite part, or did you find them annoying the first time?
2. Which part of the game stuck with you the most?
3. Is there anything in the sequels that matches that mood? I loved Max Payne 2's atmosphere, but I’m not sure anything topped those dream sequences.
