[Game] Max Payne 3
- Thread starter hockeywarrior

I like the new direction, has more of a kane & Lynch vibe to it rather than the overly stylised originals.
Which is great as Kane & Lynch had great style just the gameplay was lacking. K&L2 was a lot better but was incredibly short.
Also just saw the specs, 35GB Hard drive space

I'm excited for the game but that tv trailer sucked. Slo-mo action scenes repeated ad nauseum with a cool song over top. Boring.
GTA5 will probably be even bigger. That would be the biggest game (non-modded) I'd ever have installed though. BF3 only clocks in at 15 gigs right now.
While I'm not convinced of MP either, appearantly it will be awesome.

The MP is sounding interesting, in a lulzy, team-griefing sort of way. I love that Paranoia burst, how awesome will that be.
I have to say that as much as I loved MP2, I never threw an "oh noez South America" fit. Moreover, I actually was looking forward to the change, seeing as it's an under-explored setting, we will surely all agree.
However, seeing the list of pre-order multi-player benefits saddens me slightly. More specifically, the painkiller bottle, which — it is my understanding — is available solely to pre-order users.
Now, while the pre-order multi-player benefits for RO2 (and other games) were something I was able to stomach and understand (even though I still felt some unease at the notion), seeing as the pre-order benefits were standard items that would later become available to the rest of the players, as they would unlock them, exclusive pre-order multi-player items are something I cannot underwrite.
(Pardon me if this is nothing new; it's just the first multi-player game I'd be interested in having that poses this dilemma to me)

A bit of good news. Apparently MP3 won't be using GFWL.

Well, the article also said that R* are revamping the Social Club as well, so hopefully it won't be as bad.I would actually prefer GFWL over their "Social Club", but at least we don't need both...
I imagine they're gonna use MP3 to test out the new Social Club, so that it's well optimized for the release of GTA5.

This was almost unbearable to watch. 16 of the world's best? Based on what? The game is not even out yet and these retards are calling some people "the world's best"?
I will eat my hat if MP3 becomes a serious competitive eSport. I'm sure R* will sponsor a few more events, maybe even some console people will play it, but it's clearly just a marketing ploy.

Welp. So much for my interest in MP. It was like 15 3 second clips of people with dual pistols unloading on each other. Exciting.
But didn't you hear all those best players in the world talk about how amazing it is?
