Max Payne

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2001
The Bottom Line: Bottom line is, this is quite simply a ground breaking game that reintroduce my appetite for electronic games.
Review: With all due respect to Half-Life, I think the H-L has ay past it's sell by date. A new king of shooting game is here and it's Max Payne. Max Payne is the first game I completed this year because other games were simply too boring. After buying a...

Bringin' the Payne

Date of Review:  Jul 26, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you have the hardware, this game is a must. The difficulty gets better as you do, so it won't get old fast. I highly recommend this game to everyone.
Review: After hearing that Max Payne had hit the shelves I rushed over and bought it immediately. When I brought it home, I opened the box, found a mouse pad, and a DVD case. I knew at this point that the game was something special. I proceeded to install...

Graphics, Sound, and Wonderful Game Play Combine to Create the Ultimate Action Game Experience

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: Max Payne is a game with everything -- great story, beautiful graphics and sound, and gripping game play -- a rare find that actually lives up to the hype.
Review: In great anticipation caused by the large amount of hype revolving around Max Payne, I pre-ordered it a week before the intended release, and picked it up the first day it hit the stores. I had heard that the game had been in production for a great...

A great game brought down by annoying details

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2001
The Bottom Line: New features such as "bullet time" and "shootdodging" are the best things it has to offer. If you like first-person shooters and have some money to burn, buy this game!
Review: Max Payne, while still a first-person shooter game, provides some new and refreshing gameplay features to an otherwise normal game. These features (bullet-time and shootdodge) make the game very fun, but other things (such as the horrendous dream...

Max Payne - Maximum enjoyment!

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: You got time on your hands and can afford $50? Get this game! You won't be disappointed.
Review: First, you need good hardware. I have a P3 667 MHz with 256 MB of RAM and a GeForce3 video card. I run the game on the highest resolution and it runs fine.
Second, the graphics are fantastic! Much better than DeusEx or Unreal Tournament. They...

It only has Bullet Time going for it

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: It only has bullet-time going for it. Scrap that feature and the game is like any other.
Review: No matter what you hear about Max Payne, in forums or in reviews, DO NOT believe the hype. Its all hype when you see words such as "refreshing" and "revolutionary" being used to describe the game. Four years in development and all Remedy can come up...

Max Payne Offers a Twist on FPS

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: Max Payne takes your standard FPS game, adds a giant helping of storyline, and a sprinkling of new features to create an overall great gaming experience.
Review: I've been playing Max Payne for several weeks now (usually off and on in several hour bursts) and I've come to the conclusion that while it's your standard FPS (First Person Shooter), it offers enough twists to make it worth your money.

Max Payne

Date of Review:  Aug 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: Max Payne is fun to play just the first time around. At a price tag of $50, you have to consider whether it's worth it to you.
Review: Graphics - The graphics are very good and detailed. On my Athlon 1Ghz, GeForce 2, and 320MB RAM, I couldn't put up the level detail too much, or it became very choppy.

Sound and Music - The Sound is good, with speech throughout the game...

Oh Max you came and you saved me then you blew me away!

Date of Review:  Aug 23, 2001
The Bottom Line: Great graphics, sounds, and engine. You should enjoy it without a doubt.
Review: Max Payne is in fact your ordinary shoot-em up game. Sorry to say it but it's true. Sure there are a few minor differences. Such as it's got a 3rd person view, (not original but it's cool) Bullet time, (you see you're sniper rifle bullet fly through...
