You couldn't even toggle the shoulder. Shoot dodge was rubbish until Max Payne 2. Max Payne left me thoroughly unimpressed.

Max payne was excellent shooter. one of the most atmospheric and immersive one. Mafia 1 is best by far.

both series ruined by third installment as 3rd game for both suck. especially by introducing cover mechanics.

Max payne 1 camera angle was perfect. you can not see your character from front. MP3 camera suck as it killed immersion when you look at your character from front. you can see what is going on behind.

MP3 camera suck as it killed immersion when you look at your character from front. you can see what is going on behind.

MP1 camera suck as it killed immersion when look at your character in third person. you can see what is going on (like four meters) behind.

It didn't kill immersion at all. I would argue the opposite. That it made Max less robotic, which enhances immersion. Of all the MP3 complaints I've seen, this is perhaps the weakest.

thats many many reason max payne 3 suck

Camera
slow movement
QTE
COver system
Weak story and characters
Max out of character
Feel more like linear GTA
Daylight and sunny
No nightmare
No atmosphere
no level design instead shoot, go through corridor and cutscene play. you dont even open doors.
etc etc

Rockstar butcher one of my fav game like how 2k Butcher Mafia series as Mafia 1 was one of the greatest game ever.

 

[Hawki]

Well, that was painful to watch. But at least the comments section was fun to read.

 

[B-Cell_v1legacy]

slow movement

No.

QTE

Like three in the entire game. Easy ones.

COver system

What's the problem? Don't use it.

Weak story and characters

Bullshit. It's one of the better stories of gaming.

Feel more like linear GTA

I don't even know what this means.

Daylight and sunny

Plenty of noir have daylight.

No nightmare

That's not a reason. Besides, the nightmares in Max Payne 1 were TERRIBLE because of the shitty platforming sections and crummy jump mechanic.

No atmosphere
no level design

More bullshit.

1. Story is incredibly generic and predictable. typical rockstar writing as opposed to great sam lake writing.
2. Game forced me to use cover system because game is design for it. plus there many on rail sequence.
3. you cannot create noire in daylight.

The Third Man
Chinatown
Stray Dog
L.A. Confidential
White Heat
Breathless
Touch of Evil

Exactly, noir refers to a work's style, themes and tone, not to it being set at night or in the dark. Max Payne is noir because it has many elements common to the style like the lonesome, cynical and doomed anti-hero and the femme fatale, tonal themes such as paranoia, corruption, moral ambiguity, melancholy, pessismism, guilt and estrangement, usually set against an urban backdrop. You could set May Payne in the sunbathed daytime beachside of Miami (or, you know, Sao Paolo in Brazil, like Max Payne 3 did.) and it would still be noir.

Now, many film noirs had low key lighting as a common visual style, which can help reinforce the themes mentioned above and of course tends to work best in the dark i.e. at night or in a darkened room, but it is not a necessity.

Gee, it's almost like some people enjoy different things.

 

[sageoftruth]

Wow. This train barely made it out of the station before falling off the rails.

 

[BaronVH]

Dude obviously hates third person shooters and loves 'order up' bells. Disagree with review and use of bell.

 

[gorfias]

I guess I'm just easy to please. As much as I love to game, I stink at it. I need easy games. So far, Gears has been a lot of fun and looks amazing.

Oh yeah, that reminds me...

Can we please stop linking Worth A Buy as if his opinion meant anything? The dude's a total hack and shit at his job.

I second that. Jesus! The actual content to meaningless rambling ratio was absurd. If this is just his online persona, then he's trying way WAY too hard to enforce it and is completely forgetting that he's supposed to be doing some actual reviewing.
