The first two parts were amazing yes. This one has a lot of expectations to live up to. I don't like the guy in that picture though, too GTA IV-ish.

Dan is right, this has a lot to live up to, but I'm not convinced it's going to be anywhere near as good as the original 2.

If Remedy had a hand in making it maybe...

Exactly my thoughts. Max Payne was a bit more suave, elegant ladies man. This is a GTA meets Riddick meets Punisher. Wrong character.

I've never played the first two somehow... not quite sure how I missed them. But I do know that my friends rave about them. So I hope this is good because I'm excited!

Oh, awesome.

I remember snatching this game from my fathers room and playing it as a kid xD

Had a great noire-style comic story.

I think it was the first game I played with decent bullet-time as well.

I think Max Payne was actually the first game to feature 'Bullet-Time' (every other game copied it from MP)
