And glad all you guys agree that this looks like it's gonna be gash - not as a game AS SUCH perhaps, but as Max Payne 3.
Over on RPS (rockpapershotgun) there was a whole row between people who felt it didn't look like MP anymore and people who dismissed the others as 'haters' or 'angry internet men' for hating the new direction the series seems to be taking.
Me, I think the MP story was finished with MP2. Everyone's dead except for Max, and he finally has the redemption he's been looking for so long. That final sentence
'I had a dream of my wife last night. She was dead. But it was allright.'
Is the end of years and years of self-destructive behavior, of dangerous liaisons (Mona) and excruciating guilt. But he finally accepts it.
So, wtf, he goes to Brazil, gets hooked on junk and is now totally old, fat and bald? Wtf? The only reason they could SOMEWHAT motivate this direction change (or even continuation of the series as such) is by having his wife come back from the dead and tell him that some Sao Paolo slumlords were resonsible for her death, not Vlad and Nicole Horn.
So yeah, bullshit. Might not be a bad game, but it's not MP.Statistics: Posted by Rinox — Fri Aug 14, 2009 3:51 am
