The gameplay is standard third person action but with some really great tweaks, Max can pick up a variety of weaponry, dual pistols, machine guns, shotguns, grenades. All of these weapons are satisfying to use against the games various enemies. The game does use a health system which can get annoying if you are used to regenerating health but Max can carry pills around with him to top up his health at any time.

Crowned Review Max Payne (PS2): Max Payne, Minimum Effort! (1781 words)
by - written on 28/08/05 (Very useful, 114 readings)
Rating:

Flashback to 2001, less than a year after the launch of the PlayStation2 and a crucial time in determining how successful Sony’s next-generation console may ultimately become. But Sony had a bit of a problem on their hands, and it lay in the shoot ‘em up genre. Blasters had for a long-time been a favourite amongst gamers, but despite solid PC-ports of older classics Unreal Tournament and Quake III, the PS2 still didn’t really have a shoot ‘em up to turn heads and shift consoles – would Max Payne come to Sony’s rescue? Rescue is perhaps too strong a word, though Max Payne certainly had the desired effect as far as the gaming public were concerned, breathing new ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Max Payne, what a gem, even the name's clever! (1704 words)

I think it’s safe to say that Max Payne is one of the most atmospheric games I’ve ever played. Set in a cold, dark and rather grim world Max Payne employs a whole new approach to gaming. This isn’t just your average shooter, this is a game that you’ll never forget and that’s a guarantee. Max Payne is essentially story based although the gameplay is nothing short of revolutionary. The game starts with Max standing on top of a skyscraper holding a sniper rifle and looking rather pleased with himself. At first you think; what's going on here then. Then you realise its going to be one of those stories in which the character recalls ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Max Payne (PS2): What time is it?......it's Bullet time......nah nah na naaaa ... (620 words)

Max Payne is a now classic PS2 game that plays as a third-person shooter and is one of my favourite console games of all time. Recently made into a film starring Mark Walbherg to very mixed reviews, the game sees you playing the part of a cop who returns home to discover his wife and child brutally killed by junkies in what is essentially a flashback and preliminary level of the game. Following his family's death, he transfers to the DEA and goes undercover in order to prosecute the people responsible for the manufacture and distribution of the drugs that created his wife and child's killers. Three years pass and, just as Payne is getting close to the mob who push the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review When Max met the Enemys!! (759 words)
by - written on 02/03/02 (Very useful, 36 readings)

There’s a famous scene in When Harry Met Sally that goes something a bit like this: “Yes, yes, yes, yes, oh God, yes, yes, YES!” And that was exactly how I felt just a few short minutes into Max Payne on the PC. Only I wasn’t faking it. You see, though I’ve raved about such titles as Black & White and Severance: Blade of Darkness in the past, nothing I’ve played to date could possibly prepare me for the greatness that is Max Payne. Undoubtedly destined to change the face of computer gaming, the jaw-dropping Max Payne sees you thrust into a film noir-style action storyline, with seedy hotels, drug-addict prostitutes, and your ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Max Payne (PS2): A Unique Gaming Experience (2147 words)
by - written on 02/02/02 (Very useful, 101 readings)
Rating:

Max Payne is a game with a very adult theme to it, arguably more adult than Grand Theft Auto 3 yet it is only rated 15. Max Payne was originally released on the PC where it was a massive hit and it is set to be a hit on the PS2 as well. Max Payne includes drugs, hookers, violence, gambling, and swearing, in short this is a strictly adult game. Wouldn't it be great if a great gangster game was released to compliment all the great gangster films? It is now! GRAPHICS From the heart pounding beginning till the very end Max Payne is visually one of the most impressive games on the PS2. Max Payne concentrates on everything, it will look at the most basic ...  Read the complete review
