Release date:

Max Payne is a cinematic action-adventure game with a third-person view. The main character of the game is Max Payne, a fair cop who single-handedly tries to cleanse New York of the filth of crime. His wife and daughter are tragically murdered, and a just policeman, obsessed with revenge, sets out to destroy the criminal world of New York. It doesn’t matter to him who stands in front of him, an ordinary thief or a terrorist, who has killed dozens of people, the sentence for all is the same — death. The main feature of the game is “bullet-time”, which slows down time at the moment of killing an enemy.

Reviews and ratings

Best project remedy. And the shooting mechanics are great even after so many years and the plot from Lake is interesting, especially when compared with the recent AW2, and the main musical theme playing in the menu is simply gorgeous, even the Russian dubbing delivers. The graphics are ok, they still look at the level of PC Master race. And the atmosphere, damn it, is simply incredible, how could it have been earlier? In general, a game for all times.

Лучший проект remedy. И механика стрельбы шикарная даже спустя столько лет и сюжет от Лейка интересен, особенно, если сравнивать с недавним AW2, ну а какая заглавная музыкальная тема, играющая в меню — просто шик, даже русский дубляж доставляет. Графика норм, до сих пор смотрится на уровне ибо pc Master race. И атмосфера, черт возьми, просто невероятна, вот мог ли же раньше. В общем, игра на все времена.

Great third person action. The game is captivating with its noir atmosphere and interesting plot. In terms of gameplay, the game is also good, especially the time dilation feature. I advise anyone who missed it to go through it.

Отличный экшн от третьего лица. Игра цепляет своей нуарной атмосферой, и интересным сюжетом. В плане геймплея игра тоже хороша, особенно фишка с замедлением времени. Кто в свое время пропустил советую пройти.

Max Payne is a noir that felt like a movie in 2001, but now still sounds like a man's inner monologue in a pharmacy.

I went in for the bullet time and stayed for the snow, the comic book inserts, and Max's voice. New York isn't a city here, it's a hangover backdrop: rooftops, warehouses, nightclubs, ice and bad decisions everywhere. The shooting is simple by today's standards, but falling sideways with two pistols still creates that same image. Enemies come in droves, the plot unashamedly plays like a cheap thriller about revenge, drugs, and conspiracy—and that's precisely why it endures.

The game's strength isn't in its systems. It's in its tone. Max speaks as if he's already lost, and you're just watching a replay. The jokes are bitter, the pathos deliberate, sometimes even funny. This i… Read full

Max Payne — нуар, который в 2001-м казался кино, а сейчас всё ещё звучит как внутренний монолог человека в аптеке.

Я зашёл за пулевым временем и остался за снегом, комиксными вставками и голосом Макса. Нью-Йорк здесь не город, а декорация похмелья: крыши, склады, ночные клубы, везде лёд и плохие решения. Стрельба простая по нынешним меркам, но падение боком с двумя пистолетами до сих пор даёт ту самую картинку. Враги сыплются пачками, сюжет не стыдится быть дешёвым триллером про месть, наркоту и заговор — и именно поэтому живёт.

Сила игры не в системах. Она в тоне. Макс говорит так, будто уже проиграл, а вы просто смотрите повтор. Шутки горькие, пафос нарочный, иногда даже смешной. Это не «серьёзная драма», это криминальный комикс, который внезапно умеет ударить.
