Max Payne 3 Teaser Shows Lots of Bullets
Yup, still John Woo style.
Max Payne is ready for a comeback tour in the third installment of the series. Unlike the first two games, however, Max Payne 3 is not handled by Remedy Entertainment, which means that this will be a fresh take on our favorite film noir games character – for better or worse.
A teaser trailer has now hit the internet, and from the look of the timecode on the lower left hand corner in the video, it might not even be an official release from Take Two. One thing is for sure, though, and that is that we can expect a lot of bullet-time sequences.
Take-Two’s press release only offers this description for Max Payne 3: “Since leaving the NYPD and New York itself behind, Max has drifted from bad to worse. Double-crossed and a long way from home, Max is now trapped in a city full of violence and bloodshed, using his weapons and instincts in a desperate search for the truth and a way out.”
Max Payne 3 is currently under development by Rockstar Vancouver for the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

2. It's Rockstar.
Conclusion: Another crappy console port with lousy graphics.
I hope I'm wrong, though. -

Oh so true, R* = Failure until they fix GTA IV for the PC. -
megamanx00 Kinda cool, but I don't know. It looks to me like they are going away from the whole conspiracy that was building up in the previous two games. Of course, I guess that has to do with it not being from Remedy this time. I guess we'll see.Reply -

I guess we'll see.Maybe this will go the way of CoD, where the good games will be by Remedy and feature the main story line and the bad games will be by R* and feature offshoot storys... lmao

Hence the whole "teaser" part of the teaser trailer... It's a marketing tactic to create hype for the game. How many different game sites are spreading the word about Max Payne 3 now?

Pei-chen I wish Max and Mona would look like they did in MP1. MP2's Max looks like a CSI agent and Mona a Russian hitwoman.Reply

Totally agree, If you ask me that picture on top looks like Vin Diesel.
Seems like the actor for the sequel as been chosen...
