Max Payne for Xbox

Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, and now hunted by cops and the mob. Max is a man with his back against the wall, fighting a battle he cannot hope to win. Prepare for a new breed of deep action game. Prepare for pain...??Developed by Remedy Entertainment and produced by 3D Realms, Max Payne is a relentless story-driven game about a man on the edge, fighting for his justice while uncovering plot-twists and twisted thugs in the gritty bowels of New York during the century's worst blizzard. Max Payne is an original third-person 3D game based on the MAX-FX engine, and uses photo-digitized textures, resulting in one of the most realistic looking games ever seen. Minimize

Can you feel the payne? Get it? Payne, pain? Huh? Huh? Ah forget it.

Author's Rating:

Pros: Visuals, sound, interactive environments, comic book layout dialouges

Cons: Placement of the bullet time and shoot dodge buttons, Payne's dreams

Bottom Line:
Even if it's a "kill everything that moves" kind of game, it's a damn good one. You owe it to yourself to play this game. Read More

Release the Serial Killer inside.

Author's Rating:

Pros: Bullet time, great story, cool characters and lots of action.

Cons: Linear story and dated graphics.

Bottom Line:
Best action game period. Kill everything in sight and make it look cool the same time. Couple that with a twistedly moral revenge story and you have Max Payne. Read More
