Typical Max payne shooter fun. Superb third person shooter and a definite recommend to anyone.
Pros:
-Graphics: Gone is the constipated look on Payne. Graphics are heavily improved, especially texture detail. This game employs a more modern DX8.1 engine compared to the previous DX7 engine. -Physics: The physics in this game are top notch. Pop a few shotgun shells into a goon and watch his body go flying.
-Bullet time: Yes its back and its better than ever. I think the Max gains more agility in bullet time based on how many kills you get successively
-Mona: You get to switch around gameplay and play as Mona, a very important and prominent character in this game. She is just as cool, and looks pretty fine as well.
-Story: Grimey New York crime story, mixed in with a little romance and revenge, and is expressed in a very cool way – through a comic book. A quality story, in short. -Guns: This game has some awesome weaponry…It is so much fun emptying dual ingram clips into anyone in your way…or using a Kalashnikov/MP5 and busting some hardcore shots.
Cons:
-Lack of enough gameplay options. Pretty much all you can do is play the story.
-Very linear
-Few gameplay tweaks. -Short, unfortunately. Definitely worth a play through. It would be worth it to play the first one, but it is not necessary. Another rockstar hit.
