The award-winning Max Payne franchise put players in the role of Max Payne, a hard-boiled New York City detective with a penchant for violence, out to avenge the death of his family. The latest installment delivers more of the classic elements and hyper-intense action that fans have come to love, while moving the story of Max in a new direction.

"We’re starting a new chapter of Max's life with this game," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "This is Max as we’ve never seen him before, a few years older, more world-weary and cynical than ever. We experience the downward spiral of his life after the events of Max Payne 2 and witness his last chance for salvation."

Since leaving the NYPD and New York itself behind, Max has drifted from bad to worse. Double-crossed and a long way from home, Max is now trapped in a city full of violence and bloodshed, using his weapons and instincts in a desperate search for the truth and a way out.

Max Payne 3 will be available in winter 2009 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Yeah, it's Rockstar Vancouver that'll be developing this one. They did Bully, one of the best Rockstar games that has come out recently so I remain mildly hopeful. Though I have to say, they're really making him look alot different then he did. Maybe they're trying to distance themselves from the movie?

I totally forgot about the movie. Guess my mind blocked it away somehow. Thanks for bringing it up. :'(
One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Even worse than Spice World.

Max Payne must redeem himself with MP3. Rockstar will manage, I think.
Just too about about Remedy. I hope Alan Wake is worth it...

I hope they keep the comic strip style cutscenes and film noir voiceover.

It's the Die hard of videogames to me. Max Payne 1 and 2 are probably the best action games i've ever played. Can't wait.

Like Max Payne a lot. I was even tolerant of those wacky levels where you had to tight rope walk across trails of blood.

I never got into Max Payne 2.

It would be friggin Hi-lar-ious if Alan Wake and this came out in the same week. Won't happen though, Alan Wake could end up being an Xbox 3 launch title at this point.

But yeah, I'm pumped. It will be nice at least to get a 3rd person shooter that's not another rip on Gears of War.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #21 on:** March 23, 2009, 05:50:35 PM »

Do you think they'll go with a cel-shaded look?

brawndolicious · « **Reply #22 on:** March 23, 2009, 05:55:24 PM »

I could see them making it have a noir look. The story and style of MP is nothing like any of the GTA games.

Lafiel · « **Reply #23 on:** March 23, 2009, 07:21:41 PM »

I remain skepticial since remedy isn't involved with this, but this isn't exactly being developed by a b-grade developer, so it could be good.

and why the fuck is he taking cover? this is fucking max payne players are supposed to jump in head first in slow motion into a group of 15 russian mobsters not hide behind a fucking wall!

Edit: he is still bald! I though bold Payne was just some random enemy

Sho Nuff · « **Reply #27 on:** April 03, 2011, 04:30:52 PM »

If this is a linear game that involves a man running through hallways as things keep exploding, I"m going to give it a miss

However, if it's even remotely Bully-like I will be all up inside Mr. Payne

cool breeze · « **Reply #28 on:** April 03, 2011, 11:35:31 PM »

cover system can be fine if they make it dynamic, uh, whatever that means. There were times in the other two games where I'd stand behind a wall and pop out, so if they let me do things like cover to shot dodge, I'm ok with that.

the worst would be getting rid of quick save/load. Very fun replaying the same shoot out 10 times in a row to make it look perfect.

chronovore · « **Reply #29 on:** April 06, 2011, 08:45:54 AM »

Quicksave/Load works great on PCs, but it's rare to see it implemented well on console, and almost impossible if it hasn't been designed in from the beginning (i.e. PC-to-console ports).

Since the "sound guy" working on Bully 2's soundtrack spilled the beans on that game being in development, and R* Vancouver is apparently doing this, I'm anxious to hear who the hell is supposedly tending the shop on Bully 2...

i still don't why max payne is now a skin head and is fighting a bunch of darkies. doesn't really seem max payne. feels like a desperate attempt to grab to the dude bro market. when I think of max payne, I think of urban landscapes and 100 floor office buildings.

not to mention, bullet time in 2011 feels painfully outdated.

i just really doubt this will be nearly as good as Max Payne 2, which is a classic as far as I'm concerned.

Himu · « **Reply #40 on:** September 14, 2011, 03:07:45 PM »

Pretty much, Max Payne is supposed to be noir. This is Max Payne in name only.

I still have no idea what they mean by "third person game that feels and plays like a first person game." I think they just mean third person animation looking natural. Max Payne 1/2 (and most third person shooters) have the characters moving like tanks.

Looks really cool. It's a bit psychopath but I appreciate how much attention is given to simply the feel of shooting and movement. That one part where he shoots the guy twice in the vest is impressive.
