Max Payne 3
About
In Max Payne III we see Max from a new perspective. Taking place nine years after the second game, Payne left the police department in New York and now serves as a private security contractor in São Paulo, Brazil. Guarding the Branco family - Ricardo, Victor and Marcelo, everything turns into a disaster when a local street gang kidnaps Ricardo's wife. In attempt saving Ricardo's wife, another outlaw involves. In the end, Max has to infiltrate the gang to save Fabiana and perform some justice.
Even if Max is old, he still can put on a hell of a fight. A cover system provides some good tactical advantages and bullet time is now something iconic for the series. Manipulating with time, Max can perform some amazing tricks to kill his opponent. Also, you can shoot from any angle basically, while lying on the ground. If that isn't enough for you, you can obliterate your enemies with melee attacks or blow them up by using explosives.
As another feature of the game, no loading screens are involved. Cut-scenes are also interactive, and with that, the process of the game is absolutely smooth which makes the best experience from an intense shooter.

Max Payne 3 reviews and comments
Don't know what to say about this one. It's a Max Payne game no doubt, but it feels like a spin-off rather than a sequel. The gameplay feels smooth in a typical Rockstar games fashion. Though it's too heavy on how it chooses to show the plot. A lot of cutscenes and flashbacks. Wouldn't say I enjoy the plot a lot, since it's very average and doesn't add anything to Max's lore. I'm also not a fan of bald Max. Feels like Rockstar tried too much, but didn't know what is more important. The plot in 1 & 2 was solid while here it's barren and typical for something you would find in GTA, since it relies too much on violence, rather than Max's life. Well it kinda does, but not like it used to. Still a good game if we're talking gameplay, so I'd suggest to check it out, no matter if you're fan of the series or not.
