This truly is a great shooter

User Rating: 9.3 | Max Payne PS2
By fistfull_of_me | Review Date:
Max Payne is gritty, realistic, funny and totally serious all at the same time. Max Payne really sucks ypu in to his world. The game has a huge array of weapons and enemies. Probably the most repeated aspect in gaming is the slo-mo or "Bullet Time". This allows Max to "get in the zone". Everything else is slowed to a near holt, but max can still aim with pinpoint accuracy.

There are plenty of levels to keep you going for a while, and the good part is, the difficulty adjusts to your skill level. So if you are really going bad, then the difficulty level will drop, but if you are dropping enemies left, right and centre, then the game will raise the ante a bit.

The graphics are really good, but I did notice at some parts that the frame-rate would really crud up.

All in all, this is one hell of a game and you should at least hire it out.
