Max Payne 2 is clowney as shit. Playing it after 1 felt like a travesty, and the love stories are always retarded, only a woman or a faggot could enjoy shit like this.

This game always makes me laugh because of its brazilian dub

Am I meant to be quicksaving every 5 seconds, I mean I don't want to but any random enemy can kill you in 2 seconds and that's if they don't decide to drop them on you which they often do

Max Payne duology along with Dead Rising duology are the greatest games ever made
>>

I like Mona Sax and I'm happy for Max in the alternate ending and all, but 1 just had so much more that 2 feels like a mini expansion in comparison. Second one feels small because it takes place in like 3-4 locations tops, while in the first Max Payne you're taken on a ride across the whole New York from killing junkies and hobos to yuppies in the luxurious tops of the Aesir Corporation HQ. 3 also just blows 2 out of the waters with its gameplay and music, even if the cutscenes are irritating as hell bringing nonstop interruption

I think it's a bit archaic by today's standards. The third game basically perfected the gameplay, and I've heard it mentioned before that if Rockstar took that and put it in a GTA game that it would be rocksolid.

Around 20 or so, really good, some of the best in the business
>>
>>719681468
I only remember three things from playing this as a boy. The bullet time mechanic, repeatedly falling off the lines the first time I had to do a dream sequence, and this one room where the junkies in it were scripted to run out after you passed a certain point, and you could just throw a Molotov at the door and they'd all commit suicide on it and you'd hear a cacophony of shrieking until they bought it.

Top 20, one of the most important videogames ever made.

It's flawed as fuck, Max has a lengthy unskippable animation when he gets up off the floor after a shootdodge and you cannot move or shoot, and it's fucking retarded. This gets you killed almost all the time unless you reload your F5'd quicksave and shootdodge a little differently than you did last time; rinse-repeat until you can clear the room without dying during that unskippable animation.
Headshots are also not instant-kill with a majority of the guns. That's garbage

Other than that, sure, I liked it in 2001, I like it still, I associate it with PC gaming quite heavily as a medium and the CD-ROM case was iconic. The voice acting is great, the tone and style is great, the story was good and yeah it's very cool. It just needed those jagged goddamned edges rounded off. Fortunately the rest of it was great enough for it to become influential enough for two so-so sequels and a reboot.
