confusing story

Nothing, best of the series

NEW GAME BAD

it was too short and had the shitty escort level but other than that it was really good. I really liked how all the TV shows were actually metaphors for what was happening in the level.

Max Payne 3 best Payne.

Just kidding they're all great. Rockstar should just rent out Remedy to make another although I think that isn't allowed because Microsoft owns Remedy now? Might be making that up I dunno.

Brainlets.
>they're all great

Spot on.
All three games are great, because all three games excelt in the thematic direction they have committed towards.
And all three of them have good points to how they execute core gameplay ideas.

they ruined his face

i agree. i haven't played 1 or 2 in years but 1's story is much more ingrained in my memory than 2.

1 is family killed, work undercover for dea because of green drug. partner gets killed and you are hunted for it. kill mafia members working your way up to the don. turns out the drug is made by a blind man and an old lady. kill lady finally getting revenge.

2 is MUH MONA and vlad is now the bad guy just because? and he wants to run a restaurant and no one will let him so he kills people? and the blind guy is a politician for some reason and vlad wanted to him to treat him like a son. but he wouldn't help with his restaurant? and vinnie likes a baseball guy and cosplays as him?

i didn't know what the fuck was going on when i played it and remember even less now.

even though max payne 3 dropped the new york noir, i thought the story was better than 2.

how?

All of the games are great

AND WE KEEP DRIVING INTO THE NIGHT

They made Vlad the bag guy

They're all great except the last one, that one was shit

Bad opinion.

MORE LIKE YOU'RE SHIT

I can honestly see why people wouldn't enjoy it but I get a boner due to all it's technology. And that soundtrack by HEALTH good lord that soundtrack. And I don't mean just the airport song TEARS which is good but doesn't hold a candle to the rest of it.

Also STILL LOADING

Regenerating bullet time is a great idea but they made the slow-mo not slow enough and gave too many seconds of it, so it's less satisfying to use and also requires less thought. Every other mechanical change was for the better though.

>What went wrong?
Absolutely nothing

Bullet time was overpowered, nigh infinite, and generally unsatisfying. Whole game was way too easy.
The whole story revolves around a dumb betrayal that isn't really interesting or meaningful.

I don’t understand why people dislike Max Payne 2. It’s my favorite and I enjoy Mona’s and Max’s chemistry and their relationship developing throughout the game. Mona’s hideout is such an insanely good level especially as a send-up to a bunch of things from the first game. I guess if you weren’t invested in that duo like I was it would be lame.

I really didn’t enjoy 3. Not being made by Remedy and getting rushed through levels with incidental dialog, or even having the game straight kill you for exploring the stage for easter eggs sucks. Remedy is so good about littering their games with story flavor and MP3 was almost completely devoid it with few exceptions.

I like all the max payne games

Max Payne 2 is just too fucking short. It's so, so fun but its like 5 hours of fun.

>i thought the story was better than 2.
The overall story might have been but I think something was lost in translation with Max's character. All of the rage filled screaming felt out of place.

The gameplay is great but what ruins it for me is the level design, you kill 3 or 4 guys and then you get a cutscene that's obviously just there to hide the loading screen. It's shit, it wastes time and tanks the replay value.

2 is fucking great and my favorite but holy hell it is short as fuck.

3>1>2
