They're all really good, especially the third. Get it OP.

I never played 1 or 2 when they came out. I ended up playing them for the first time only a couple years ago. They hold up really well. The graphics weren't very good but the gameplay and story were phenomenal.

Being the worst out of some of the best shooters made isn't really a bad thing.

Max Payne 2's slow motion mechanic is the smartest and best thing ever placed into a shooter.

second one aged to the point of mediocority

They are all amazing games, OP, especially the first one.
It's worth it, kid.

weird because I think the first one is the most fun, still fifteen years later.

>>322338439
to each their own i guess, I never could play the first one for very long having started with the second one and having played the third one

I personally preferred 2 over 1, unsure why everyone likes the first so much.

So you're retarded? MP1 is dated graphically for sure but it plays better than most shooters released. MP2 still looks great considering how old it is.

Yeah, they were pretty decent shooters back then, and not like there has been much of better TPS in the meanwhile.

1 has the best story and setting. 2 feels way more generic in style, you can tell they shelved the original writer but the gameplay gets expanded. Third one's kinda hit & miss.

First is incredible. If absurdly punishing towards the end.

Second has a boring fucking story with boring fucking characters. Like holy shit they just drained the first of its eloquency and humour. Slight improvement in gameplay - you know can spam bullet time for EZ kills, but no real John Woo dives.

Third is a slight improvement over the second storywise but a massive improvement over both gameplay wise. The dives are BACK, baby. Also they load levels behind the cutscenes, get used to that.

So yeah, get the lot. First and second are a bit of a bitch to get running, first requires a sound fix and both need to be run in compatibility mode for 98/ME and as admin.

>>322338641
The guy who depicts Max in the graphic novel of the first shows up constantly in the second as a TV star.

>this kills all motivation for replayability
>story is also pretty crappy, nonsensical character motivations and very badly written dialogue, especially comparing to Max Payne 1 and 2
>instead of letting you explore the environment and the environment be highly interactive like in 1 and 2, it's not almost like an on-rail shooter - kill 2 people, cutscene (before you have chance to pick up ammo), then repeat - the only good shootout is at the airport and if the whole game would be like this it would be great
>no more listening to goofy mafia talk, no more tv shows, no more soul and humor put in the previous games

It was a good game, sure. I enjoyed it a lot the first time through, bad things set aside. But it's nowhere near the first two games, sadly. If all the technology would be put in a game with less cutscenes and more interactable, explorable world of 1 and 2, I would love it. Right now it's "only" good.

Don't want to start another thread, so I'll ask here. What do you think about this list, especially 7 days to die?
>>
>>322340893
Too bad they're not on GOG. I have pirated versions with all the patches and fixes to make them run on modern systems, as well as original copies.

On the first PC I bought and built myself I got Max Payne 1, Commandos 2 and Colin Mcrae Rally 2. Good times.

>7 days to die
Indie survival zombie garbage. Jesus fuck how bad is your taste to enjoy this shit.

>Shadowrun
Pretty good, except for the Facebook game visuals and interface. I enjoyed them.

>Cold Fear
Underrated little horror gem. Really liked it, but it's nothing amazing.

>Wolf Among Us
Eh, it's ok as far as Telltale games go. For 5 bucks it's alright.

>Door Kickers
Pretty fun, but you can get better tactical games for that price, like Rainbow Six games, Ghost Recon games, etc. If you played all of those then buy this one sure.

Didn't play the rest, through I want Transistor for a while now. I think it's pretty good.
>>
>>322342628
TWAU, Dragonfall and Transistor are good, espeically Dragonfall

Will there ever be a shooter with better gameplay than MP3?

>story is bad

is the story bad because the main character is an unreliable drunk or because he drank so much he forgot he got over his guilt over his dead family and girlfriend or bad because the main character doesn't realize what is going on until he's in deep shit?

Story game has cutscenes ?
>>because they are also loading times, they can't be skipped
Yes you can, once the game is loaded you just press enter. It depends on your harddrive speed

Max Payne 1 and 2 were story heavy, with better stories, and they didn't have hours of long, badly written cutscenes.

>>322343183
Nah, just because it doesn't make sense for Max to risk everything for a bunch of idiots he hates. He doesn't even get paid for it anymore. His character was the best thing about the game, but everything else was stupid.

It was basically Man on Fire, but there the main character actually liked the little girl he had to save and had motivation to do all the shit he did. Here he just does it because... he does?

He does it out of guilt more than anything. It's not exactly inconsistent with the previous games.
