Max Payne - Matrix-like crime-fighting

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: Although flawed, Max Payne offers some new gameplay to an overplayed 3d-shooter genre, and some amazing new graphics/slow motion/and level design.
Review: Max Payne is so-far the most innovative 3d-shooter yet. Developed by Remedy and released by God Games and 3d Realms, this game pushes the limits in today?s standard 3d-shooter. It features crystal sharp graphics, movie like in-game cinematics, and...

Max Payne: This is How To Deliver After 4 Years Of Waiting.

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you can get past Max trying to be Bruce Willis, you'll really dig this game.
Review: Max Payne. I'd almost forgotten how long ago this game had been talked about before it finally got over its stage fright and decided to get itself out onto shelves.

All of the initial signs on this game had it earmarked to be another...

Boy, was I wrong...

Date of Review:  Aug 31, 2001
The Bottom Line: 3+ years of waiting...and it was totally worth it.
Review: Ok, I admit it. I though Max Payne would be a bust. In fact, I was so certain of it that I prophesied Max Payne would be the Daikatana of 2001. Humbled, I now shamefacedly struggle to remove my foot from my mouth.

In my defense, the...

I could swear Max Payne is Neo from the Matrix at weekends....

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: Max Payne is a videogame version of a John Woo film. That says it all i think.
Review: Max Payne is the gaming version of a John Woo film. Or possibly The Matrix ie. An ultra cool, slick, and stylish game that oozes dark humour and class. Developed by Remedy, Max Payne hit the PC in 2001, boasting several groundbreaking features like...

Max Payne lives up to the hype

Date of Review:  Dec 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you own a powerful computer, this game is a must because of its quality graphics and excellent storyline.
Review: Max Payne has been in development for what seems like forever. But the final product was worth the wait. Max Payne sports amazing graphics, a unique third person camera angle that doesn't get in the way, and an engaging story. Although similar in...

Max Payne, Great Game.

Date of Review:  Aug 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: Aside from a couple of minor cons, this is a magnificent and visually stunning game that if your 'puter can handle it belongs in everybody's collection.
Review: For three or four years, Max Payne was one of the most mysterious titles in development. All that was known was the storyline: your wife and kid were slaughtered three years ago, and you went from average cop to bitter undercover agent in the New...

Max Payne: DO believe the hype!

Date of Review:  Sep 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: You've heard the hype, now see it for yourself. Play it on a STACKED system and turn up every detail option. AMAZING!
Review: Introduction
I play a decent amount of computer games. Not near as much since I?ve gotten married and had a son, but I still get my licks in, albeit usually very late at night! FPS (First Person Shooters) are one of my favorite game genres, so...

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Payne

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: Max Payne + Bullet Time = Great Third Person Shooter!
Review: Max Payne is a game that everyone has been talking about for years. Over the past 3 years, G.O.D. has been promising to release this "revolutionary" action game. After waiting so long, I was gearing up for a level of disappointment on par with...

The Maxtrix

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: This game is FUN FUN FUN, that's all there is to it. Great graphics, sound, story and Gameplay. It's still just s hooter though.
Review: For four long years this has been in development and there was a complete media blackout on the game some time ago so details have been sketchy but now it is here. Was it worth the wait?

Yes, yes it was.

Three years ago Max...

Matrix, Quake, and The Die Hard Trilogy had an Orgy, and here's their hybrid.

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: Get this game, if you got the powerhouse. You will not regret checking out the Max.
Review: 3rd person shooters had been given the reputation of pure crap now. Thanks to the works of horrible 3rd person shooter games such as Tomb Raider. But that's besides the point. The point is, 3rd person shooters have been given the butt end half of...
