Kept expecting a sick drop, brah.

 

[demonicmurry]

Disappointing trailer.cant put my finger on it but something feels off

No Max Payne theme!

 

[DeFrank]

I gotta admit, I am pretty heartbroken that the Noir feel of the game is completely gone. It's about an 8 out of 10 on my "Disappointment in Re-imagination of a Series" scale.

That's only 2 points below Ninja Theory's Dante rape.

 

[raphier]

I am sorry max, but she's in another castle, you know. You gotta infiltrate a penthouse of a gone-crooked rich political face of this town. Shave and make yourself a criminal max, get into their type.

 

[GremlinFool]

...Walter White?

 

[Arucardo]

Eh, significant story spoiler at the end? (don't highlight if you didn't notice )

Spoiler

Basically they showed your "partner" aiming a revolver at you at the end (the one in the elevator) or maybe I misinterpreted it, though that line he says seems to point that way...

 

[jett]

Trailer didn't do it for me, graphically it's kind of on the ugly side too.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

If it's like Man On Fire, I'd be all in for this.

It's fine they're leaving the Noir behind. That story ended as perfectly as it could anyway.

 

[Kinyou]

SSX, Uncharted 3, Syndicate, plenty of other game trailers

...Far Cry, Assassin's Creed

 

[DeFrank]

...Walter White?

*thumbs up*

 

[Fezan]

No Max Payne theme!

This

Trailer didn't do it for me, graphically it's kind of on the ugly side too.

And this too

 

[Jtrizzy]

Watching the animation of the girl dancing is funny, it looks just like they way it's done in the GTA games.

 

[Nibel]

Great new footage - Max will deliver.

Going into media blackout. HYPED!

 

[LiK]

Disappointing trailer.cant put my finger on it but something feels off

the only thing i can think of is that they're pretty vague with the story. saving a girl for his boss seems to be pretty weak for his motive.

 

[throwawayname]

Day 1 for me.

 

[Horns]

If it's like Man On Fire, I'd be all in for this.

My thoughts exactly as I watched this trailer. If MP can capture even a little of Man on Fire vibe, it'll be amazing.

 

[lefantome]

I won't watch any MP3 trailer till they release more info about GTA V

 

[anddo0]

...Walter White?

Yep. Walter White 3: Breaking Bad.

 

[Necronomikon]

FUCK YEAH!!!

I want it NOW! Inside me... PC HDD that is! I hope it delivers for the long wait!

Seriously?

It looks FUCKING AMAZING !!!
And god finally a game with a "real" story LOVE IT !

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Like all the bad things in my life, it started with the death of a woman. I couldn't save her.

Though in this case it's a kidnapping. The greater plot presumably will unveil itself. Shit looks pretty intense. I don't remember Max ever screaming "God damn it!" like that in the original games.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

It looks FUCKING AMAZING !!!
And god finally a game with a "real" story LOVE IT !

lol wut

 

[Discotheque]

Doesn't look at all like Max Payne, but I've gotten past that. Just hoping for an awesome action game.

Yeah it looks totally different from the vibe of the first two.

Not too happy about that, but I like the Michael Mann vibe I'm getting from this one. Game looks good. (dude below is right on point with that comment, Kane and Lynch without Kane and Lynch)

 

[Deleted member 10571]

looks a lot more like Kane and Lynch without Kane and Lynch to me, than a Max Payne game.

 

[Speevy]

I was the one who knocked.

 

[dr_rus]

I sure hope that there will be more story in the game than they've shown in that trailer. Because right now it's like this:
1. Graphics? - no
2. Noir? - no
3. Story?

 

[jett]

Seriously?

uh huh

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Both Kane & Lynch and Max Payne 3 are influenced by the same sort of media influences like Michael Mann.

Though Max isn't a total sociopathic prick like the other two. Imagine a cross-over where Max offs those two.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

I sure hope that there will be more story in the game than they've shown in that trailer. Because right now it's like this:

Noir isn't just a visual technique.

Once again the world proves it has no idea what noir is.

 

[Omikaru]

Oh look, another angry bald man with a gun. Can't wait to play this!

 

[Speevy]

Noir isn't just a visual technique.

It does however create the atmosphere for the game.

 

[Alexios]

No Noir? Come on...

Yes, Noir isn't just visuals, nothing about this game evokes that, or Max Payne 1/2.

Trailer not doing it for me on any level, hope a gameplay focused trailer will do more...

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Oh look, another angry bald man with a gun. Can't wait to play this!

Oh look, another case of selective perception.

No Noir? Come on...

Trailer not doing it for me on any level, hope a gameplay focused trailer will do more...

The last trailer showed gameplay extensively.

 

[Discotheque]

Imagine a cross-over where Max offs those two.

They're saving that for the next Hitman game when they're ready to finish off Kane and Lynch series.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Have you not been watching the Design and Tech videos?

 

[LongDongJunon]

Dat Bronco nose.

 

[Liamario]

So, are going to talking LA Noire or Red Dead Redemption in terms of platform parity?

 

[Arucardo]

They're saving that for the next Hitman game when they're ready to finish off Kane and Lynch series.

If done right, that would be one of the coolest moments in games ever. I wish crossovers and cameos were more common in games, at least in games developed by the same studio.

 

[jett]

MP3 is undoubtedly using the Rage engine. Expect the PS3 version to be sub-HD and to suffer from lower framerates, just like GTA4 and RDR.

 

[bishoptl]

Going to war for

is a time-honored tradition, friends

Replaying the other two Max Payne titles now. Noir is great and all, but we don't know how the story in MP3 is going to play out. There's still an opportunity there, and this looks engaging enough to survive just fine w/o the noir aspect.

PC version for me, day one.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Looks great. Money is tight so I'm not sure I'll pick it up day one, but it will be mine one day.

 

[solarus]

This will be the best game of the year I just know it, well unless pikmin 3 is a launch title for wii u.

 

[dr_rus]

Noir isn't just a visual technique.

In Max Payne it is.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

MP3 is undoubtedly using the Rage engine. Expect the PS3 version to be sub-HD and to suffer from lower framerates, just like GTA4 and RDR.

That's my biggest fear with this game. It was pretty frustrating.

I'm getting both versions anyway, but still, I wish there was a solid parity. Maybe this time around they've got their engine up to snuff.

 

[RedSwirl]

Man On Fire: the Game.

 

[codhand]

looks a lot more like Kane and Lynch without Kane and Lynch to me, than a Max Payne game.

Yeah, def has a Kane and Lynch 2 vibe. I liked the trailer.

 

[Meccanical]

In Max Payne it is.

In Max Payne it is a narrative technique.

New York in snow is not noir in and of itself.

Christ people.
