Yeah but as much as I like Rockstar it's a new developer isn't it?

Will they have captured the magic?

Yeah it's a new developer for Max Payne, but they have some of the guys that worked on the original games.

Possible. But I've seen quite a bit of it so maybe it flashes back a fair few times or something.
The verdict seems to be that it can get samey, the story is pants but it is an overall enjoyable run through.

Never played any of the Payne games before but this has deffo got my interest up. Think it'll be a case of waiting for reviews before I decide for definite though.

I'll just leave that there. Max Payne THREE.

Cough.

Yeah.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

Talk about taking a quote out of context.

As I said before Max Payne 3, is the first Max Payne this gen & for 10 years, this isn't the same as the current trend of yearly sequeals & every bloody game that's made now days having to be a triology just to milk the cash cow.

Yep this is looking good, but won't be preordering as I feel I got shafted when I preordered Crysis 2. All the stuff you got was lame and actually made the MP more difficult.

When Crysis 2 came out, I'd never played a Crysis game before, so it wasn't like a sequel to me really, as for Crysis 3 I have already said, it looks good but again its just another
Crysis game.

There's a pun somewhere that Crysis is in a Crysis, but I just can't find it.
