Die Hard 3.0

As action shooter Max Payne 3 is definitely in order. However, some of this game should not be compared with Open World Games a la "Red Dead Redemption" or "Grand Theft Auto" by Rockstar Games, as they are in any way in relation to Max Payne 3.

What is managed?

Big plus of the game is that the life of Max Payne movie-like by many, sometimes blurred and blurred, flashback is shown. This reminds z. B. on such films as "Man on Fire," "Die Hard" or "16 Blocks" where the dilapidated main character, although still runs while intoxicated, top form and invests with the bad guys.

The bullet time sequences in slow motion making extremely fun and look really filmreif from.

The selection of portable weapons is so limited that you max. 2 handguns and 1 rifle, and grenades has available.

The selection of weapons affect the maneuverability in combat.

The years have left their mark on Max Payne, that he has gotten older and moves according to sedate. This is not for everyone, but definitely realistic.

Max painkiller administered in place of conventional health packs.

The different levels of difficulty and individual Anpassungsmöglichenkeiten for control and gameplay are fine. Any halfway "skillful gamer" should match the medium difficulty mode will have no problems.

What could be improved?

The playing time of the single player mode in my opinion is too short, as well as many other shooters, I think.

The Brazilian gangs and paramilitaries against which it competes seem to have endless capacities. You always equal to begin feeling against an entire army.

Just about the flashbacks to tell the story, so annoying is after some time the flicker in the cutscenes that Rockstar is an old problem.

Another problem, in my opinion is to read along the subtitles at the partly long cutscenes. Here Rockstar should be time to take a lesson from the creators of Uncharted 3 that made it take to synchronize.
PS: I have the subtitle already issued to mitzubekommen more of the game.

As exciting as the game was beginning, the more boring it was with increasing playing time, due to endless gunfights always the same sequence: 1. movie 2. Entry in shootout with Bullet Time 3. actual shooting ...
Here does not help even the Outfit- and hairstyle change from Max Payne.

The handling is running in my opinion, as with everything Rockstar Games is not round (time delay from input u. Edition). Here it is not recommended to use the free destinations and to target for the automatic to decide.

Conclusion:

As a third-person shooter, I recommend Max Payne warmly, as it for a while a lot of fun to take on the role of the aging and dilapidated police. However, one should not approach with too much expectations for the game you, as it as oa is only a "shooter".
