Is Max vulnerable to chairs being thrown at him?

He also got blown up.
Didn't he get shot in the chest and then fell into a hole. Also survived a free falling elevator.

He can dodge bullets, pretty sure he can also dodge a chair.

got blown up and then fell a couple storeys. and then yeah he got shot in the torso and fell another few storeys. then he got up out of bed while hallucinating and decided to fall down an elevator shaft just a few hours later. then a gun went off in his face and he managed to fight off smoke inhalation long enough to escape the burning building so he could jump into Alfred Woden's panic room while the foundations of the building explode around him.
so to answer OP, no you can't beat max payne.

>Series dead

James McCaffrey and Health were really the only ones in Max Payne 3 that did absolutely nothing wrong. "Dead" and "Tears" make me think Health actually understand Max Payne better than Houser. And only one of those songs even has any god damn lyrics.

And let's not forget Rockstar was going to replace McCaffrey until after the backlash from the Game Informer reveal.

Am I the only one interested in Control? Picked up Quantum Break when it had a big discount and it was decent. Story was interesting, soundtrack was good, gameplay was okay and it looks like they are improving it for Control.
CIA did nothing wrong

i hope between MP3 and their work on GTAO rockstar is paying health well because they deserve it.

I'm excited. The newest vid from eurogamer said they had a dynamic encounter system, which is something I've thought every metroidvania needs.

they should have kept sam lake as the max payne playermodel.

everything in this post is 100%

I would like to know who they were planning on replacing James McCaffrey with though... out of morbid curiosity

Attached: oh no.jpg (735x627, 209K)

I doubt Sam Lake would be okay with his likeness being used for Rockstar's gain. Also does anyone have that webm of him dancing?

Sam Lake only stood in as the Max face because Remedy weren't able to pay enough to use real actor likenesses for the comic book sections

I'm glad they didn't use actual actors for MP1 though, it would be far less memorable if they did

Rockstar took ownership of the franchise and made the best game they could with it. No developer could capture the noir magic that Remedy did so r* did the next best thing.

Base it off Max Payne 1 and 2.

Don't let anyone who worked on the 2008 film anywhere near it.

But it will never happen, Max Payne as an IP is dead. The only thing that could save it at this point would be Max in Smash Bros.

>the shootout in the airport with tears playing is really fun

Mechanically sound but the game was emotionally empty.

>also the parts where you're in new york were my favorites
Agreed... but that's also because they were most like the older games. I'm glad these sections made it in because they were the "stand in" for Max Payne 1 and 2's dream sequences.

I'm still mad as hell Mona was reduced to "just a fling" by Houser. She had more screen time and characterization than Michelle. I'm willing to bet most of you even forgot her name until I said it.

>was it really plagiarized? from what? im kind of curious
A bit of an overstatement but the game's setup (American drunk works for a rich man to protect an important woman in his life but is kidnapped, forcing said American to track her down guns blazing) and the game's editing style is lifted from aforementioned Man on Fire. There are other "homages" but I can't recall them as well.

yeah... the story could've been much more emotionally charged than it was. sadly they'll never make a max payne 4. all rockstar will do now is endless gta online clones with microtransactions

I don't know why I gave Rockstar that much credit and assumed they'd do something logical and cool like that.

And typing this up just reminded me of that crazy soap opera with the devil baby in it in 3. Which makes me mad because the shows in Max Payne 2 were so clever and relevant.

>Shitty limits on carrying weapons
The only thing that REALLY pissed me off about the weapon limit in 3 was that dual wielding immediately dropped your rifle.

I mean it was kind of overkill in 1 and 2 with the weapon amount Max had, but now he cant even toss one over his shoulder?

mite b gud

I'm fine with overkill, it's a video game not a sim. Infinite pockets and such haven't been a problem until people started making it one

does that guy even upload anymore? aside from shitting on crackdown 3, he's been MA for E3 2018 / Game Awards 2018.
