Okay so a new screenshot.....trailer?(baaah) has been released for Max Payne 3, and above is a image which looks to be in-game. Now if your a fan of the series I'm sure within 5 seconds you would've gone WTF!? Is that him? Where is he? What the hell man! Now I don't like to judge, especially early on without knowing too much facts but really? This is gonna be the next Max Payne? Come on..
To me this instantly looks similar to Uncharted on PS3. The covering system, the environments, even the graphics look alike, yeah they look good though. However my feeling tells me this is gonna be different from the previous MP games, the whole dark noir theme will disappear and turn into some sort of jungle battling cover shooter game, which well as you know... is as common trend in FPS games these days........ doda.
I'm really hoping to be wrong here, but that's just my two cents from what I've seen and read below. What's your opnion and take on what you've seen of the new Max?
Here's some released info about the upcoming game: (from GameTrailers)
MAX PAYNE 3 FACTS
About The Story
Max Payne 3 begins 12 years after the events of Max Payne 2, with Max visibly older, more violent, and more world-weary from the events of his own life. Having left the NYPD, Max has been taking odd jobs in security and consulting, and when we find him he is providing personal protection for a wealthy family in Sao Paolo, one of the worlds deadliest and most crime-ridden cities. At absolute rock-bottom, Max discovers that trouble still dogs his every step, and he finds himself drawn into the brutal heart of the Brazils dark underworld.
About The Game
Max Payne 3 retains many trademarks of its predecessors; a focus on story and character-driven action, a large number of sophisticated weapons with dual-wield capabilities, Bullet-Time, an addiction to painkillers, mature themes and Maxs ever-present internal monologue. Max Payne 3 also utilizes Natural Motion and Rockstars own RAGE engine, working with brand-new particle physics technology to deliver spectacular, highly advanced close-quarters combat, an intelligent cover system, and constantly varied gameplay in every level.
About Brazil
Brazil is the fifth-largest country in the world, by area and population, and is notoriously known to house a number of the worlds worst drug traffickers, street gangs and kidnappers. The number one cause of death among the youth is murder.
Sao Paolos young gangs are amongst the most violent in the world, and the most dangerous of those is said to be the Primeiro Comando da Capital. The PCC has organized prison breaks, prison riots, drug trafficking, highway robberies and kidnappings since it was formed in 1993. With one gun for every 75 people in the country and 95% of those firearms obtained illegally, Max will need every skill he has in order to survive.
