Max Payne is an absolute classic of action games. We waited years for the completion of the project, but when it finally appeared on the market it changed the genre of shooters irretrievably. The option of slowing down time, which so quickly became popular in other titles, stems from the adventures of the brave New York cop.
The so-called bullet time allowed Maks to save himself forever in the history of games, not only computer games. The plot also appears here in a specific way, because through dark photocomics with voices and music. They create a climate of anxiety and allow you to feel the repulsion from the criminal world.
The personal tragedy of the protagonist, motivating him to act, will also be significant here. Previously, it wasn't common for game producers to have the courage to discuss such a very heavy topic. Graphically, even after years, the product makes an impression, and at the time of the premiere it was absolutely the first league, including the option of destroying the environment from bullets.
In the centre, however, it is still possible to knock out bandits during spectacular jumps into the air, as well as to look for painkillers, which act as first-aid kits. Everything is interwoven with simple riddles that boil down to finding the way forward. The demo version allows you to play the very beginning of a dark story, offering up to several dozen minutes of gameplay.
It should make a good appetite for more.
