Max Payne 3 Review | Hard Reset

On the face of it, Max Payne 3 is your average third person shooter. Grizzled protagonist. Exotic location. Hoards of never ending bad guys. Cover, pop, shoot gameplay. Sounds a little bit like everything else, right? Wrong! Max Payne’s newest outing is one of the best shooters of this generation. It takes everything that similar titles do, but builds upon them with fantastic new mechanics and a story that puts other titles to shame.

Is this game good or not? I feel like rockstar games generally get a 1-2 point boost in review score. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed all rockstar games I have ever played. Get this or wait?

'I feel like rockstar games generally get a 1-2 point boost in review score.'

What games would you say that reviewers gave them points more than they should have?

shammgod5120d ago

GTAIV. It was not as good as San Andreas or vice city. And this game. I have heard the MP is broken, how can it get a perfect score. Who cares anyway, reviews are gay

MariaHelFutura5120d ago

You are your best reviewer and you just said you enjoy all other R* games.

tigertron5120d ago

In my opinion its the best game Rockstar have made next to San Andreas. Do yourself a favour and buy this...NOW! like...literally run/drive to the shops and get it.

beerkeg5120d ago

Can't wait until the pc version is out. Just counting the days now.

Pintheshadows5120d ago

Got it today and it's terrible.

That's a lie. It's one of, if not the best 3rd person shooters i've ever played. It matures all the aspects of the old Max Payne games into something miraculous. Cover, amazingly, doesn't interrupt the flow of the game and it's nice to have a game that kicks your arse now and then.

I'm loving how Max is sleeping under the barrel, rather than being merely at the bottom of it, and how Sao Paulo acts as a metaphor for a bright new future that Max is not destined to have.

Neo-noir Hong Kong action masterpiece.

Accidently gave you a dislike for your first sentence lol.

Pintheshadows5120d ago

Haha, that's ok man. I just 'accidentally' stayed up playing Max Payne until 5:20am.

It just gets better and better. I'm finding shoot dodge works brilliantly as a defensive tool allowing you to get to cover, pop a painkiller, reload and begin shooting again.

I've seen guys playing it like a normal cover TPS on Youtube. I however dive anytime I can.

MorbidPorpoise5120d ago

Hadn't seen/read much about Max Payne 3 apart from the announcement trailer, so did wonder how the story would plan out, as it seemed Max had changed alot.

I'm liking how the story is being told by Max in flashbacks to learn what has happened since Fall of Max Payne.

One thing that made my day was the water effects in the game, they are pretty impressive.

I got 80% trophy completion on Ragnarok but left a few of the battles. Will come back to it one day.

Miraak82 1060d ago

Dragon Quest 11 is my top pick

RpgSama1060d ago

Dragon Quest XI was such an AMAZING game, I had a blast from the very beginning all the way to the very end, it actually got better the more you played, full of surprises as well.

Another game that I enjoyed from the very beginning all the way to the end of the 100% completion was Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Really, really, really fun game with a great heartfelt story.

badz1491060d ago (Edited 1060d ago )

Where is Horizon Zero Dawn?? where is Ghost of Tsushima?? I just got my Platinum on HZD and is now trying to finish the Frozen Wild expansion. so much care and love went into that game and it really shows. I especially adore the lore and have sunk many hours listening to the logs and reading journals. the back story is great and the gameplay is awesome. can't wait to replay on the hardest difficulty on NG+. next in my list would be to finish GoTsushima

Tacoboto1060d ago

Ghost was fantastic especially after Iki Island and the PS5 upgrade. 100%'d that, Horizon Forbidden West (not ZD), GoW (not yet Ragnarok), Spider-Man, and R&C: Rift Apart.

Each one absolutely worth it.

Aloymetal1060d ago (Edited 1060d ago )

100% I would like to add to you list RDR2, amazing as well and the perks from getting the Legend Of The East outfit is awesome.
Sekiro as well, have to play twice to get it but it's worth it!

Demetrius1060d ago

I agree I'm on my 2nd playthroughs of both horizon forbidden West(zero dawn I played also) ghost of Tsushima except I'm replaying it on PS5 this time, the iki island expansion is amazing

ClayRules20121060d ago

Yeah, GoT was already an AMAZING game on PS4, but playing it on PS5, along with that expansion, just even better.

Elda1060d ago

I just started my copy of GOW:R, enjoying it so far.

DefenderOfDoom21060d ago (Edited 1060d ago )

Okay the title of article should be top 10 , 3rd person games to complete 100 percent. Nine 3rd person games and 1 racing game on this list .
