Max Payne

max payne 1 and 2 in my opinion are two of the best games that have ever graced my PC. the combat system is fantastic, the storyline is superb and the fact that he simply will not lie down and die is so rediculous that it is almost believable. what is your opinion?

I haven't played the second one, but the first Max Payne was one of the best games released in the last five years. Bullet time's great, and the gritty storyline is the best that I've ever seen in a game.

Haven't played the second one yet, but the first one was amazing. The one thing I didn't like about it was his drug-induced dreams where you walked along a trail of blood. I hated those stages...

Shouldn't Mr. Payne be addicted to pain killers after all he's been threw?

I found the storyline of the first one to be so full of painful cliche's, that I ended up skipping some of them because it emotionally hurt me just to listen to them.

^Yeah. The Shakesperean-tough-guy thing got to me after a while...

What made the storyline great wasn't that it was original or innovative (like you said, it wasn't), it was the atmosphere and the dark way in which the events were portrayed.
