MAX PAYNE 2 OMG!!!!

Fantastic title and a perfect sequel as far as I'm
concerned..... however the storyline absolutely vexes me.
Mona is still alive, most of the Inner Circle is still
alive.... and plus Max is working with the guy who was
chasing him in the last game... what?

still fantastic with the gunfights though - the Bullet Time
is even smoother in this game. And the music is BRILLIANT.

It is basically the same as the original but with a few
advancements. Love Max Payne though, especially the Kung Fu
version that is mind blowing.

exactly - i noticed no new improvements either - but Max
Payne was already damned good as it was. i think the
hallucination sequences are a bit more bearable now.

Yep, same old, same old... but if it ain't broke, don't fix
it! So much damn fun.

Running into a room full of mobsters, diving and mowing them
all down in bullet time, all before hitting the ground...
awesome.

It's got brains too, ultra stylish.

The physics are great! Anything can be knocked down or
displaced, and the bodies are all ragdoll and it's so
sadistically fun to shoot someone off a ledge and watch them
plummet onto a box, bounce off, land on their head and then
roll down some stairs.

Game of the year for me.

No new improvements? How bout the graphics.. and more
importantly, the awesome physics! Max Payne 2 definately has
the best physics this side of Halflife 2 (basically best
ever until HL2 is released).

i was gonna rent it for xbox but then i got otogi, which is
also really good.
i loved the first max payne, i play it when my music is
rendering (which can take hours)

gaming, I swear

yeah but how could they not? It's impossible to resist a
world that reacts so true to life to all forms of contact,
in a game!
