I think I'm going to get the Xbox 360 version over PS3. I got burned on RDR, the differences in resolution, picture quality, framerate and world complexity was pretty big. It's a shame that we still can't blind buy PS3 version of many games without trepidation.

[aegies]

Right, but is it any good? The quality of the story is probably more important to me than the gunplay, but I'm looking forward to both. I trust your opinion.

I think excitement is warranted.

[Vire]

I think excitement is warranted.

That's all I needed to hear. Looking forward to your review on Monday.

[MMaRsu]

Ok lol I've watched enough to know this game is gonna be fucking amazing, I'm not too worried about old Max Payne nods etc. If you want to know something very cool but it might be cool to learn this on your own : You can watch TV, and there is an episode of Captain Baseballbat Boy playing < this says enough for me and I wont need to watch anything else.

The gameplay looks amazing, and yes there are a few annoying things there like the Mann style flashes during gameplay that honestly serve no purpose but I guess it's to remind us that A : max is drunk and on painkillers or B: that we are playing a videogame :p.

[Aguirre]

honestly getting bored waiting!! you guys' seductive impressions are leaving me un lady like

[Sevket-Erhat]

Anyone know if the PS3 version has an install? And does this one have a previously on video like Max Payne 2 and the Yakuza series?

Previously on is not present

[dreamfall]

The game is 12-15 hours, depending how much you die. And you will die a lot.

That is great news! Can't wait- it's ridiculous! So much hype!

No joke. I have both systems and love them about equally but I have a lot more 360 games due simply to porting incompetence. In fact I only recently got a new 360 because of the Skyrim PS3 debacle. And Bayonetta.

Ended up not liking Skyrim very much though. Oh well, still plenty of great reasons to own a 360.

lol redbox

Oh boy...

Not sure what's wrong with redbox?

Redbox and gamefly have been the best part of this generation for me.

Not interested in either piracy or paying full price for games that have short campaigns/online passes/assorted dlc shenanigans.

Redbox is only giving out 1 disc. The SP is covered in 2 discs on 360.

Single player, pretty cool bit, I have no idea how far in but it's not close to the beginning, no spoilers really.

JESUS at the LIGHTING.

[MMaRsu]

Also I would have to say it sucks the story is in Brazil for the most part because I feel it's a missed opportunity for bad guy comments. I mean I can't understand what the enemy's are saying but I liked all the stuff they would say in previous games. Sure in the NY parts you'll still get that but I don't like Brazilians screaming all over the place that much.

[zychi]

Just installed the game to my HD. Will report back with any info. Hopefully this speeds up some of the load times, cause some of them are long.

Load Times? Everything is hidden behind cutscenes man.

[solarus]

Yeah that's what really impressed me in that video too. Rockstar has been fucking amazing this gen.

No matter the negativity on GTA4, that game alone was a crafted (and technical) masterpiece, and even LA Noire had some revolutionary things going for it. Rockstar has been god tier this generation.

GTAIV had a host of technical problems which were greatly improved and refined in Red Dead.

Can't wait to see how that tech works with GTAV...

I'm one of the few who actually rather enjoyed LA Noire. Don't hurt me GAF.

[Revolutionary]

Awesome game so far. The PS3 version looks pretty good to me, if it's not 720 then it's close. I've noticed slowdown in cutscenes, but thankfully never during gameplay (so far). Can't wait to put more time into it later.

[LuchaShaq]

...will it be separate rentals or you just can't get past the first disc? Lolwut.jpg

Guess gamefly it is or just suck it up and use the dualshock which I hate.

Awesome news on the PS3 version. Let us know if the performance keeps up. Is there an install?

If you rent the 360 version you can only play disk one.

What a tease!

Arthur, are you reviewing it?

Here's the preview video of the MLG Max Payne 3 event that was held last weekend.

Why are MLG and pro players so annoying to watch? Ugh..

Nice footage of the game, though.

[Lakitu]

Rockstar ninja's earning their money. Every time I click a Youtube link with new footage, it's been removed.

[newsguy]

Eew, that pro exhibition is like a huge Rockstar blowjob. "Oooh I can't wait to see how deep this game is." R better be paying MLG big bucks for this cause it oozes of a long ad.

Dat sideways kick.

[ezekial45]

Just curious to anyone who has played or seen enough footage of the game. Do nightmare sequences make a return? They were all very well done in past games. If you're gonna answer, just put ........ before and after your text in the spoiler tag.

Not to shit on everyone's parade but am I the only one who thinks the multiplayer looks like complete garbage compared to the singleplayer?

Same goes for anything about the return/absence of TV shows.

Fairly positive they aren't. Haven't seen anything to suggest it from the hours I've watched.

I could be alone on this, but I always thought those were kinda shitty to actually play, so I can't say I'll miss them much.

I see you playing, damn it. And here I am playing Dead Island like a sucker...

Thanks for the impressions, hopefully Rockstar gets it 100% right on PS3 for once.

So I played all of Rockstar's games this generation on PS3 with no noticeable issues. Are their PS3 versions that bad or is it that they are bad if you've played the 360 version?

GTA IV and RDR were sub-hd on PS3, so they looked a little better on 360. Nothing huge, but I'd like some parity already from this company.

[Net_Wrecker]

Graphically? Mechanically? What are you talking about?

i think the difference with RDR was pretty big, especially if you're a graphic whore.
With Rockstars games, i'd go for 360

[Revolutionary]

NeoGANG represent!

As for the graphics debate, I think it looks pretty damn good for a PS3 game. The antialiasing isn't exactly that great, but the resolution looks about right (I'm no pixel counter) and the textures are about what you'd expect for consoles. If you're a graphics whore then you should be buying the game on a PC anyway (which I will when it's released - damn staggered releases!).

This person would be the first to go if stranded in the wilderness.

So in regards to the mp customization, how much does light and heavy body armor reduce damage?

[Fjordson]

Game looks fun, but that video was cheesy as shit :lol

[Vire]

Graphically? Mechanically? What are you talking about?

Just graphically compared to the singleplayer. I don't have any beef with the gameplay of it.

*Shrug*

I can't place my finger on what exactly is different, but it just looks off.
