No shit.
The story was a shitty xerox of Man on Fire. The atmosphere was completely changed from the classic noire of 1 and 2 to modern shakycam.
The gameplay is consoleized and has the same heavy, underwater movement of Rockstar's other modern games. The voice direction is also pretty lousy. Most of the time James McCaffrey barely even sounds like Max. How do you even fuck that up?
>>
I liked it for one playthrough and one playthrough only
>>
>>749653442
I thought it was fine for what it was. Granted, I bought it on sale for $5.

I enjoyed the gameplay. I remember there being more cinematics than gameplay though.
>>
>>749653442
Gameplay was good and the GTA games should have that integrated into them
>>
>>749653962
Everyone is like that because the main issue is the frequent cutscenes which interrupt the gameplay. It's not something players notice when they're invested in the cutscenes for the story because it's their first playthrough.

I liked it way more than 2, not as much as 1. Did everything there was to do and sometimes reinstall to shoot some BRs. I think it could've been much, much worse.

this game will always be how i imagine brazil to be like

Gameplay wise i think its really fucking good and has shockingly great gunplay for a fucking rockstar game, all their games have barebones terrible gameplay but MP3 keeps it intense by making max die in one headshot and have enemies that actually can aim their goddamn shots and melt you if youre not careful.
But story wise it is absolutely awful and amateurishly written but i always thought houser was a hack.
Gta 4 Nico's constant talk about "the war" was just so fucking annoying, he talks like an emo teenager. Nobody gives a single fuck about anything you went through but hell answer a question with "when you see a bunch of kids with hands chopped off you just dont care about anything anymore"
Nobody fucking talks like that and its just annoying.
His games always have juvenile level social commentary that thinks its so smart. But rockstar despite their extreme and mature themes makes games for kids. Kids love that edgy shit because its big boy grown up stuff and they all wanna grow up and be gangsters driving cars and shooting guns.
>>
>>749653442
It tries to be cinematic but ends up being jank.
the flash back sequences are kind of stupid too

Classic noire? Max Payne 1 and 2 were absolutely cliche.
>>
>>749653442
remind me why rockstar got MP3 instead of remedy and lake?

You're trying to sound smart while being retarded.

>>749653851
Gameplay was the only thing that didn't suck an console players lost their shit about it because it was almost unplayable without a mouse to pull off quick headshots.
Problem was that the so by the numbers its parody noir of max payne 1 and 2 was substituted with so by the number its parody b-tier action schlock which completely failed to do the same since it was alrdy the industry standard at that point without the nuance that it's supposed to be funny.

Nigga, these are games from the early 2000s.

I played all 3 multiple times and i like 3 more than most but it's story and writing sucks ass
Man on fire was a lot more fun and charming
>>
Max Payne 3 really does fail on all levels
>good mechanics wasted on dogshit pacing and level design
>interesting premise wasted on dogshit writing, cutscenes and presentation
>multiplayer wasted on rockstar shitclub integration and completely closed toolset
>established IP wasted on developer's desire to write niggerwood movie fanfiction
>>
I haven't played 3 yet but I played 2 for the first time a few months ago and it fucking sucked. The gameplay is slightly better and guns feel better, but the story went to complete shit; the tone is totally different and it's you running back and forth across the same areas over and over again while Max becomes increasingly retarded over criminal pussy. Massive fucking downgrade from the first game overall.
>>
the only thing i remember about this game is turning people into glue
>>
>>749653442
I enjoyed the game but I understand his position
>>
>>749656765
Fair. But also max payne 1 andd 2 can be beaten in like 2-3 hours.
>>
>>749653442
In what way? It was the best one by far, and easily one of the best games R* ever made.
>>
MP3 was really good

Thought the gameplay would be used in gta 5 but alas
>>
>>749657242
3 blows both the Remedy ones out of the water completely.

you never played a max payne game
you have ADHD
>>
>>749653442
The forced cutscenes are awful.
>>
>>749653442
Every game after 1 was pointless.
2 had garbage gameplay and they overpowered bullet time to comical levels, story was ok but completely unnecessary. Only fan theories that speculate about Mona not even being real give it interesting layers but they don't really make sense lol.
3 had great gameplay but a garbage plot.
>>
>>749659908
retard alert
>>
Nah he's retarded. 1>3>2. 2 is a nearly abject failure. Bullet time is now right click to win every encounter, and you better turn it off if you want to avoid the stupid pirouette reload. Max's obsession with Mona Sax isn't believable at all and skates by on "he's a man she's a woman" alone. They have no chemistry, they don't even particularly like each other in 2 whereas in 1 they flirt a little bit.

2, with the Inner Circle tearing itself apart, Vlad's daddy issues, Woden's aging, was a different story and kind of game with Max Payne and Mona Sax shoved in there. It's just not a particularly good game. 3 is definitely better.

MAX PAAAAYNE JA MAX PAYNE DREI JA DAS BESTE SPIEL DES JAHRES JA DES JAHRES ZWEITAUSENDZWÖÖÖHÖÖÖLF

>>749653442
From start to finish I felt like playing a game that was never meant to be Max Payne and they just inserted him into it for sales. It was fun enough to play though.

Watch this. I'm going to left click a few times, and win. Just like Max Payne 2. Except without the stupid fucking pirouette reload.

>>749656062
noir is a genre about literary cliches from noir literature which is a cliche genre based on the black books which are a series of cliche detective books that share the word black in their cliche titles.
FUCK you
>>
>>749653442
the reason the game is good because it's quality tps mechanics, on top of having a good brownoid gallery to shoot. Everyone already knows the story is complete shit and not even mp
>>
It was still better then 2 though.
the airport shootout when the music hits was memorable.
>>
>1>>>>>>>>>>>3>>>>2
>>
>>749660143
That's how I feel as a big fan of the first game. The second one sucked, took itself far too seriously and had none of the memorable moments of 1.
3 was very different again but I really enjoyed it, even though it was disconnected from the series somewhat. The New York level was really good and the last few levels were very kino
>>
Why are all the people suddenly shitting on 2? Did some YouTuber make a video about the game?
>>
>>749660143
>the airport shootout when the music hits was memorable.
that was easily the worst part of 3, I had to mute the music for that part.
you zoomers are the fucking worst.
>>
>>749660042
No, MP3. Why are you bringing up an audio format?
>>
>>749653442
Let me repeat the general consensus on this issue: great game, mediocre Max Payne

Fans of 3 have to drag 2 down to make their game look acceptable, because if they tried the same thing with 1, they'd instantly be told to kill themselves.
>>
>>749660324
>Suddenly
It just felt worse to play than 1. They messed up bullet time massively
>>
>>749653442
Its a mostly dogshit game with one decent segment being the airport, but other than that Max Payne 1 and 2 are infinitely better games
>>
>>749661309
But your bullets actually go to your reticle, so win some lose some.
>>
>>749662293
Hold LMB.
Where and how the fuck is this non complaint keep popping up.
Ammo is not a concern and unless you purposefully engage with the fucking abysmal dynamic difficulty in a way that breaks it, MP1 even on its hardest mode is not a game where you have to hit a guy perfectly in the head first to survive.
>>
>>749653442
well at least he admitted his mistake, others pretend it was good forever
>>
>>749659921
>Vlad's daddy issues
Oh yeah, Vlad turning around and betraying Max out of nowhere after being one of the old school loyal allies in the first game pissed me off.
