For Max Payne, the tragedies that took his loved ones years ago are wounds that refuse to heal. No longer a cop, close to washed up and addicted to pain killers, Max takes a job in São Paulo, Brazil, protecting the family of wealthy real estate mogul Rodrigo Branco, in an effort to finally escape his troubled past. But as events spiral out of his control, Max Payne finds himself alone on the streets of an unfamiliar city, desperately searching for the truth and fighting for a way out. From the back alleys of a snowy New York City to the desperate and poverty-stricken favelas of Sao Paulo, Brazil, Max must face his demons and find meaning in the wasted remains of his life as he once again journeys through the night... and into the day. An engrossing crime drama written by Dan Houser, writer of Bully, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Red Dead Redemption, developed by Rockstar Games, and starring James McCaffrey, the original voice of Max Payne in a full acting role.
Developed by the entirety of Rockstar Games. Every studio has had a hand in Max Payne 3's creation, with Rockstar Vancouver as the lead developers. Powered by the RAGE Engine (the same engine used in GTA4 and RDR). This is Rockstar's first Third Person Linear Shooter using the RAGE Engine. Going linear has allowed them to increase the depth and detail of each environment substantially. Euphoria is back in Max Payne 3, and it is glorious. This is the most advanced use of Euphoria to date, giving Max the most realistic animation in a Rockstar game yet as well as many, many more realistic death animations for the very bad men Max faces off against. These may just be the most realistic gunfights in a modern-day shooter. Every hit reaction is modeled realistically, as well as the gun mechanisms, recoil, Max's animations, damage to the environment, etc.
Bullet-Time and Shoot-Dodge also make a triumphant return. With the push of a button, you can slow down time and get the edge on the enemy. Combined with the more detail created by the RAGE Engine and the Euphoria-powered animations, our eyes will probably bleed in amazement. For the first time, Multiplayer is now a part of the Max Payne franchise.
