    I that Jullianne Moore in the fourth pic?! :D

    It all looks pretty damn cool, the game probably isn't going to break any new boundaries, but if its half as fun as the original was, it'll be a worthy distraction for a while. A better plot this time might though.

    looks the same with hi-res textures and slightly better weapon models.

    Character models seem much the same and as angular as ever.

    Will you two quit your childish banter over who it is thats in the 4th picture. I mean for christ sake it's obviously Jamie Lee Curtis.

    Yes the first one was like smacking yourself in the groin with a snooker ball :) (thats left me well open to countless slagging and no, i haven't tried it). It was fun at first and then became a painfully repetitive experience.

    This is game is one that I definitely won't regret not getting no matter who good people tell me it is.

    I thought the first one was brilliant (apart from the very short length), so I'm looking forward to this.

    1. When is it out?
    2. Will it take more than 8 hours to finish?

    I wouldn't be surprised if the game is the same lenght as the first game. Publishers will probably come out with some crap like 'twice as big as max payne 1!!!'. The levels in max payne 1 were very big but because of the nature of the game which was very fast paced you did fly through them. Thankfully it was mercfully short for me.

    I liked the first game, Thought the stuff where your finding your dead wife and child, and running through the reaccuring dreams where freakely cool. Thought the gameplay was better than enter the martix, nothing like jumping into a room on slowmo, shooting everyone then letting go and watching them all drop to the floor! that slowmo stuff wouldn't even be in the matrix game had max payne not paved the way, a very origonal gameplay idea, I'm eager to see what else they come up with in MP2, more of those cool funny comicy cut scemes :)

    yeah that pretty much what i thought to. Max Payne looks well different too. Like his face and stuff doesn't really resemble what he looked like in the last one. He looks like and old man in this one. Looks ok though, might get it if its not to expensive.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,711 ✭✭✭Dr. Dre


    Looking forward to its release.
    Loved the first one.

    Max Payne looks well different too.
    Yeah whats up with that the guy in the graphic novel cutscene things worked well i thought-although how long is it set after the first he may have aged a bit.Looks pretty good on the whole loved the first game cant wait for this one!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,387 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    He looks different because after the first game he took a course of laxatives.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,689 ✭✭✭orangerooster


    HAhahah...ohgod.They could have kept him at least similar to the guy in the cutscenes from the first game.Well hopefully it should be good a better story wouldnt go amiss though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,348 ✭✭✭Ryo Hazuki


    Its a good thing your gettin a new card, that MX you have would fall flat on its face trying to run this game, By the look of it.


    He looks different because after the first game he took a course of laxatives.

    Of course...
