This is a must own - Screenshots included.
I am reviewing Max-Payne 2 because it is awsome, the first time i played it on the x-box i thought it was ''sweet but short'' so then about 1 year later i brought it for the p.c it cost me $7.99 and i thought that was a bargin for a new seeled game, plus i have always liked rock-stars style of games.
Gameplay; It is smooth as a mofo even if you have a low end computer, it will do a auto test to detect your hardware which is good, so you dont have to fiddle about with the graphics settings if it isnt working proply, the best thing about this game is the legendary bullet-time or as some say '' slow-mo '' you can do this stylish move by pressing the right mouse ( i think ) and you can move around in any direction while you are in the air, its very slick.
Also the Ragdoll physics are great!
You can shoot a dude then he will go flying in the air then drop high in the air then he will look cripled on the floor, this is really a highlight of the gameplay with the bullet-time mode.
Graphics; The graphics are great, rhe bullet-time mode makes it blury and gives it this awsome effect, the faces and models are top class and they look almost real the exspression on there face when you shoot the crap out of them before they die is great, you really feel like your there.
The buildings and the backdrops look good, and the items on the table look great but they look better when there blown to smithereens.
The gun models look awsome too, in slow-mo you can really see the bullets shooting from the gun and hitting your enemy in the face which gives you a good feel when you see this and it will amaze you.
Sound; The sound on this is awsome, the voice acting from max and mona and various other leading people in the game sound so real not no cheap crappy acter's like from resident-evil 1 ( i still like that game ) The enemy npcs shout to there buddys telling them stuff like '' Hey he is over here! ''
or '' Its Max!! '' which makes it even more fun killing them.
Value; There is quite alot of value in this game because of the MODS here are a few screenie of some of the few MODS i have installed
