Is Max Payne 1 one of the best games of all time? Just replayed it today and while the graphics are a bit dated...

Gameplay-wise 2 is more polished, but slows the pace down a bit from 1. Story-wise 1 is much more interesting.

yes
its way too easy and by the end its just poppin headshots against armored guys

Plot-wise, it's incredibly stupid

I was already so far past the point of no return I couldn't even remember what it looked like when I had passed it.

Played it for the first time recently and no I don't think so
I really like the presentation and writing but the combat and level design are so dated I wouldn't call the game fun
If there's one game that deserves a remake it's this, with modern combat and real cutscenes instead of comic strips it could reach its full potential

Not even Max Payne threads are safe from baiting faggots

>rockstar releases a 1080p 60fps version of max payne on ps4 yet they can't even put the effort into updating the pc version to not need like 5 user made patches to run on modern systems

The combat and shooting itself is still very satisfying even nowadays you fucking moron.

>modern combat and real cutscenes
Stay the fuck away from video game development please

1, 2 and 3 are almost completely different games.

There's no fucking way some fat white dude in leather should be doing kung fu like that what the fuck

>noooo don't criticize my favorite game
Cope Max Payne isn't perfect or timeless
I disagree, the way Max controls and can't even aim properly feel dated, the game is nearly unplayable without bullet time
Third person shooters have come a long way since 2001

2 > 1 > > > > > 3

>good gameplay and real cutscenes are bad
>clunky PS2 combat and comic strips good!
Okay boomer

Thank goodness they'll never touch MP1 again so you retarded zoomers will never get what you want and the game will rest with dignity

Enjoy your dead and forgotten series bro

I will, untouched by your filthy zoomer hands

I mean the only thing that makes "modern" gameplay modern is "realistic" animations. What sets realistic animation from the games of old? A feeling of weight and slowness. How do games achieve the weight and slowness feeling? By removing a player's control over the characters/animation.

Nearly by definition, modern gameplay and cutscenes are clunky- you've got it backwards.

>clunky PS2 combat
You fucking what mate? The only thing you need for MP1 is a widescreen and sound fix. Then it's golden.

I wouldn't call Vanquish, the Evil Within, or modern RE games clunky the same way PS2 shooters were

HEY YA

Cutscenes are pretty bad, yeah. The comic strips give the game a distinct personality.

>PS2 shooters
There's that word again, you said it twice now. Are you using it as a default for clunky combat? Or do you not know this is a native PC game? I can never be sure.

based and checked

I think it's a zoomer. PS2 was probably just before his time so he thinks that's the benchmark for old games.

3 > 1 > 2

You do realise max payne is a PC game?

You expected a zoomer to know that?

>Is Max Payne 1 one of the best GAMES of all time?
>cutscenes
>narration
Absolute state of western """games"""

I don't like the gameplay designed around rapid quicksave-quickloading.

I know that's bad design but I'm nostalgic for it. I will admit that a variable checkpoint system is better. Halo CE has one of the best of all time.

Max Payne 3 was good but dropping the comic storyboards from the originals still baffles the world. That noir comic strip storytelling basically made Max 1 and 2 classics and they just tossed it out the window. Fucking stupid.
>putting bullettime in MP
Also stupid.

I'll say it, Max Payne could use a reboot from the perspective of a certain female character. My lady.

Eh, I enjoyed 2 more. The end levels for both sucked, though.

Checked. Max Payne is definitely one of the greatest games ever made and is still extremely enjoyable to this day. I don't even know how many times I've beaten it, but I know the entire game like the back of my hand.

Dear god, I hope you don't mean Mona Sux.

*blocks your path*

The worst level in MP2 is the funhouse or arguably the captain baseball bat level. The construction final level in MP2 and sniping for Mona was based...its also far and away the largest level.

It's either her or Vlad. The story of Max is over.

2 just shit the whole bed tbqh. Turning Vlad into the bad guy was pretty dumb. Making Mona a serious love interest was megadumb.

Gognitti in the Captain Baseball Bat Boy suit was fucking kino though, I'll give it that.

HAVE NO FEAR
VLAD IS HERE
I thought those were all fun, though the funhouse is a bit slow
Thinking back, I think it has a pretty great variety of levels compared to most games. MP1 got a bit frustrating at the end for me.

Vlad was helping push the drug that got a junkie to kill the wife and child of Payne. Charming as he was, he was also the end game for Max. Sorry not sorry.

>fat
I didn't know Somalians browsed Yas Forums.

That's fair enough. I just prefered Vlad as a bro. Mona being a love interest was pants on head retarded though. It made no sense and wasn't executed well at all.

The captain baseball bat boy level was absolute kino

Game is one of the GOAT because of the cutscenes and narration.
Have you ever played a game called The Last of Us, OP? Souns like you would love it.

Max just needed to get his dick wet. I'll agree though that it was poorly executed.

>Is Max Payne 1 one of the best games of all time?
Yes easily. That ragnarok club level is based and redpilled

What was that N64 TPS game with really awesome shooting mechanics? Can't remember the name. Anyway that MP 1 and 2 and Deadspace are the goat tps games. I'll give a nod to Resident Evil and Vanquish for trying and failing.

The flesh of fallen angels! Astaroth, Beelzebub, Baphomet, Lucifer, Loki, Satan, blood to you all!

V is one hell of a drug.
