Even though some features were missing from Max Payne 2, the audio attribute of the game is superb.
-
The game also feels a little too anticlimactic because the last few chapters arent as intense as the original.
-
The first games take on noir was fresh and powerful; the sequel has the same haunted spirit with less surprise value. While Max Paynes rain-soaked world is a weary one, its also undeniably compelling.
-
As much as I love my PS 2, this version is the ugly cousin in the Max Payne family. Rent before purchase.
-
The atrocious frame rate and textures hurts the game play, almost making it at times unplayable. Max still has the charismatic way of dealing with his demons, which is dealing death with bitter coolness.
-
TotalGames.netThere is enjoyment to be had here but it is so short lived that there is no point donating much more than one evening to the game. For a franchise that started out so well this does indeed seem to be the fall of Max Payne.
-
Too many corners were cut to ensure the timely shipping of this PS2 release, and Rockstar Vienna's lack of care shines through.
