(First play-through) Max Payne 3 | Rockstar Studios / Rockstar Games | Windows | 2012
1After my incredible play-throughs of Max Payne (https://youtu.be/_cjlgO0Us2k?si=lRwMwncJIRT6xXiz) and Max Payne 2 (https://youtu.be/lO250izFOFE?si=HEndl6mRFODdSUni) in 2021 and 2022 respectively, it was about time I gave the third iteration a go.
I'm given to understand that this isn't a well-liked title, and I totally understand the reasons why. I think MP3 does fall short of where Remedy's games were, in terms of gameplay, story and overall atmosphere. The story in this game is vastly inferior to Max Payne's gritty, noire, psychological tragedy.
But MP3 is a good game in its own right, and I definitely enjoyed working my way through it. And I appreciated the fact that the gameplay was still tough, even on "Medium" difficulty. Although I would have preferred the difficulty being managed a tad differently, relying less on tank-like enemies and adaptive difficulty doling out health.
Once I finished the story, I did faff about for a bit in the Arcade Modes; maybe I'll revisit these in my own time and work my way through them?
One big downfall for this game - it really does make me want to go back and play Max Payne...
