The game and the storyline are truly excellent.-by Izo

"Max Payne" has the best storyline I've ever seen before. I've really never seen a game that can go that deep. The story is realistic and in many ways dramatic and sad at times, although there is some humour within the deep drama of the game. It's stylised cut sequences, excellent voice acting and comic book feel gives this game the right atmosphere.

On top of that it has used ideas from "The Matrix" to produce interesting and exciting gameplay. The polished surroundings, storyline and range of weapons keeps you interested. Its something that just hasn't been seen before, a truly amazing game. I think the "BAFTA"-"Intereactive Entertainment Award 2001". Was well worth the effort. WELL DONE! To everyone involved with "Max Payne". It'll be a classic in years to come.

this game is good but there is 1 flaw i am going to mention and is the scariest. u are playing in a dream i mean nightmear u are walking through the hall and it seems like ur getting farther away and when u get close to the black u see cloud wallpaper wit blood all over the place then u here the baby crying like it is dyeing then u get to the end of the hall and u see total darkness u have to walk on a blood trail trying to find the end of the dream. and the bad thing is u dont want to fall off the trail cause the baby will screem and cry really loud then u end up at the beginnig and u have to do it all over again poor baby

Absolutely HATED it!

I usually rent a game before I purchase it, unfortunately I didn't on this one. It's a continuous run, shoot, run, shoot game. I was just bored with it. And I really thought the voice actors didn't do a very good job either. I wouldn't recommend this one.

Great But Corny

Hello Fellow gamers. I am writing a review on Max Payne for the PS2. First off I would like to say I have NOT played the full version just a demo. So I may be wrong about some things, but this is MY experience with it. Max Payne is awesome. It has This feature called "Slow-Down" which allows you to, well, slow down time. But not like the played-out slowdown of the matrix mind you not.This slowdown makes the game become even better than it would be without it. it make it easier to kill the enemy's and it is just plain fun.Also the stpry line is fantastic.When I played it i was thinkin "this could be a movie the story line is so good". The voice acting is great at first, but becomes annoying. Like Max would say something like "The air outside was like a good drink, Stiff, but Cold" WHAT THE HECK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN! It's nice to see something different in games as opposed to saying [gee] its cold outside! It also gets kinda corny hearing [stuff] like that after a while. Also it has this feature where it reminds me of a comic book, because well sometimes it will tell a story and you can hear max but the cg is a comic book! so that is different. I gave the game a star just for the comic book feature just because it is original. Everything else is great. The blood that spatters when someone gets whacked. The weopons, are good too because they are REAL guns as opposed to many other games. No not here in Max Payne you would get a gun like Desert Eagle. or a Shotgun.Or dual berettas. So this is my review on the game. Great But it gets corny after lisening to it for a while!

A real ANNOYING GAME

if you want to get a decent game, get metal gear solid or medal of honor. this game is a terrible one, controls are horrible. I didnt read the review above because there is nothing about this game to talk about in so much paragraphs. A WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME!!!

Why did they make it for the PS2?

Why buy this on the PS2. It looks horrible on the PS2. It looks so much better on the PC or wait for it to come out on the XBOX. The game itself rules and deserves game of the year honors, but whatever you do don't buy on the POS2.

this game isnt that good

this game isnt that good because all the controls are messed up you have to use the joy sticks and it gets real boring after a while so whoever doesnt have it dont get it get something like grandtheftauto 3 or state of emergency when it comes out

This game was horrible. I bought it after hearing good things about it but it is the worst game for PS2. The only ok thing about this game is the bullet time which is not all that great. I bought this game and immediatly took it back. The graphics are the worst. I haven't seen a game on PS2 with worse graphics. If you want a game like Max Payne wait for Dead to Rights which will really be cool.
