It was alright... ! | Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne Part 9!
Personal Thoughts:
Back at it again with the game that introduced me to the man, the myth, the legend, Max Payne!
Plot Summary:
Two years after the events of the first game, Max Payne (James McCaffrey) has been acquitted of the charges against him and reinstated in his old job as a detective for the NYPD, thanks to his connections to the Inner Circle secret society. The story is narrated from Max's perspective, who recalls the events of the past few days. The first flashback occurs in the hospital, where Max is recovering from a gunshot wound. Several assassins raid the hospital to try and kill him, but Max avoids them and makes his way to the morgue, where he finds the body of a woman he has recently killed. The game goes back further in time to a few nights prior.
Game Info:
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne is a 2003 third-person shooter video game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by Rockstar Games. It is the sequel to 2001's Max Payne and the second game in the Max Payne series. Set two years after the first game's events, the sequel finds Max Payne working again as a detective for the New York City Police Department (NYPD) while struggling with nightmares about his troubled past. After being unexpectedly reunited with contract killer Mona Sax, Max must work with her to resolve a conspiracy filled with death and betrayal, which will test where his true loyalties lie.
The game is played from a third-person perspective. Throughout the single-player campaign, players mainly control Max, with Mona playing in a few select levels. Both playable characters have access to various weapons to eliminate enemies and a bullet-time ability, which slows down time during combat. The bullet-time mechanic has been upgraded in Max Payne 2 to allow players to move faster as they kill more enemies and reload weapons instantly. Due to the Havok physics engine being used, the game also features improved ragdoll physics. The story is again told mostly through graphic novel panels with voice-overs, although several traditional cutscenes are also used. Whereas the first game's plot was inspired by Norse mythology and conventional hard-boiled detective novels, the sequel is mainly based on tragic love stories like those seen in film noir, with Max and Mona's relationship central to the game's narrative.
Max Payne 2 was released in October 2003 for Microsoft Windows, in November for the Xbox, and in December for the PlayStation 2. It received highly positive reviews from critics and, like its predecessor, has been cited as one of the greatest video games ever made. Praise focused on its action and story, while criticism targeted its short length. Despite the positive reception, the game sold poorly, leading Rockstar Games' parent company Take-Two Interactive to cite Max Payne 2's sales as a cause for the company's forecast finances of 2004. Max Payne 2 received industry awards, including Outstanding Art Direction at the Golden Satellite Awards 2004 and Editors' Choice Awards from GamePro, IGN, and GameSpy. A sequel, Max Payne 3, was released by Rockstar in May 2012. A remake is in development for Windows, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
The franchise is notable for using "bullet time" in action sequences and being positively received by critics, although Max Payne 2's sales were considered underwhelming. As of 2011, the Max Payne franchise has sold over 7.5 million copies. The film rendition received negative reviews but was commercially successful.
On April 6, 2022, Remedy announced that Max Payne and Max Payne 2 are in development for a remake in a development agreement with Rockstar Games.
