New Max Payne 3 Screens are Still Gloomy

New Max Payne 3 Screens are Still Gloomy

Somewhat less gloomy dev diary out, too

Written by N0T PENNYS B0AT on 17 March 12 at 20:51

The oft-delayed Max Payne 3 is finally (FINALLY!) almost here. The game's development schedule has experienced nearly as many unfortunate events as Max himself, but fans of the noir shooter only have about another 60 days or so to wait now. In the meantime, check out this new developer diary and new screenshots for Rockstar's next epic.

The dev diary discusses the cinematic qualities of Max's latest chapter, and plenty of gameplay video highlights that point.



The new screens continue to display the mix-and-match aspect of dual-wielding your firearms.

MAX3-17 3

Max Payne 3 is due to shoot up stores on May 15th in North America and May 18th in Europe.

Looks VERY nice. I love the smooth transitions between cutscenes and gameplay, similar to what I've seen recently in the ME3 demo and Batman Arkham City. The slow motion final kill is also nice just like in Skyrim and again, Batman AC.

The revolver in the top screen is beautiful as are some of the other weapons shown in the trailer. Rockstar are one of the best game developers currently out there, and I'm certain that Max Payne 3 will not disappoint.

The same exact narrator and trailer design sold me on red dead redemption years ago. Oh, and Rockstars flawless output doesn't hurt. Can't wait.

Cemetery comes from Gamestop, I think the 1st DLC pack is free if MP3 is pre-ordered from Best Buy and places in Europe have options for MP load-out bonuses but as far as the US goes, I think we miss out on those...

Will I have had to play 1 and 2 to understand the story in this game, or is it like a James Bond movie?
