Finally.
Multiplayer will be strange with bullet time. The game doesn't actually look that incredible from the screen shots but more along the lines of Kane and Lynch.
Story wise it looks like a big departure from the original but we'll see.

I've been meaning to play Max Payne for the longest time....I've only played the 2nd one.
C'mon this deserves better recognition than Kane & Lynch..this is a Rockstar title haha
I'm assuming this is the only Rockstar game next year? Maybe we'll finally see another GTA in 2013

Ohh... I hope they don't screw this one up as it's been in development for a while. Huge fan of Max Payne 2! Finished it many times. Max Payne 1 was great but maybe I was too young back then to really enjoy the game and it's story.

Well, R* didn't even make the first two, they merely ported it for the console. Remedy has not released a game that sucked although looking through their Wiki page, I see they have a game called Death Rally which I never played. I just hope R* does the story line as well as gameplay justice and even take away from it some design influence like bigger sprite for the character instead of making the FOV so large the characters are indistinguishable *cough GTA *cough.
I love Max Payne but there's a lot of Sam Fisher in the early screen shots. Hopefully it was scratched and they remain faithful to the original.

I have the original Death Rally CD that I bought through the mail for like $18. A fantastic racing game.
Also, Max Payne 1/2 have one of my favourite stories ever, and have the distinction of being games that I've played more than once.
I really hope they don't mess this up.

max payne 1 was amazing for a few reasons:
1. extremely dark AND twisted game which i was not expecting from a 3rd person shooter (look how goofy, even if good, uncharted is)
2. the story and the way it was executed, just brilliant
3. the atmosphere was amazing and pure film noir right to a tee
4. i played it in winter and while i was in new york in the game with snow everywhere, peeking out my window i saw the same environment which was that more enveloping (night time+ snow)
5. character development. Even secondary and tertiary characters had a mistique or something specifically different about them, just perfectly intertwined
6. the songs and soundtrack, uber dark and it helped push that tense feeling more
max payne 1 main theme:

i love the max payne 2 sound just as much:

Cool, Waulter White is in the game. Played the first one ages ago and loved the Spawn/The Crow feel of it.

Max Payne 1 from the story line to game play was so engrossing that I played it 18 hours straight. Heard so much about it from the PC crowd that I bought it when it came out for the PS2. From recollection, I played it 18 hours straight until I nearly finished it but was interrupted by the fact that I had to go to work, however 18 hours non stop has to be some kind of grandiose achievement in the gaming circles.

gameplay looks really good, but I think I'm going to wait after launch to pick this up.

the pre-order bonuses don't look all that enticing and I have a feeling there will be a considerable amount of DLC down the pipe.
