Max Payne 3 Hits This Winter

Max Payne 3 is currently in development and scheduled to hit the PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 this winter, Rockstar announced this morning.

The sequel, in development by Rockstar Vancouver, will tell the story of a retired police detective "embroiled in a world of corruption, turmoil and intense violence."

"We're starting a new chapter of Max's life with this game," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "This is Max as we've never seen him before, a few years older, more world-weary and cynical than ever. We experience the downward spiral of his life after the events of Max Payne 2 and witness his last chance for salvation."

Since leaving the NYPD and New York itself behind, Max has drifted from bad to worse. Double-crossed and a long way from home, Max is now trapped in a city full of violence and bloodshed, using his weapons and instincts in a desperate search for the truth and a way out.

I loved the first one, but the second not so much and I stopped playing about 1/2 way through.

No Remedy, but Rockstar should do a great job. Rockstar Vancouver previously worked on Bully.

Re: Max Payne 3

Yes i am also very happy about this as i love the Max Payne series(well 1 & 2) and i thought they were done making these games as i played both previous on the ps2 and spent good amount of gaming hours playing them, glad to see it will hit the next-gen console gaming systems

Re: Max Payne 3

lol, I hope they don't end up trying too hard making Max Payne more world weary and cynical. They also have to somehow write the game to account for the two different endings in the last game.
