Max Payne vs Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
Max Payne
Max Payne is one of the first third-person action shooter game that feature a heartbreaking storyline where Agent 47, the protagonist that you'll be playing as, attempts to hunt down the people who have slain his family (a wife and a baby girl) while trying to deal with the crushing grief that came with the loss. At the expanse of your character, the game puts a refreshing twist to the usual explosive action that 007 or any other secret agent film that had come out from Hollywood.In addition to the incredibly immersive storyline where you actually feel for the protagonist and his struggle with his grief, the gameplay in Max Payne is groundbreaking as well. Max happens to also be on the run for a murder he did not commit, and being a man with only one thing - vengeance - to lose, you'll need to help him fend off both the cops and the mob alike using the game's stylish slow-motion gunplay.
Max Payne is the first game of its kind to give players a dark and twisted storyline that's worthy of more than just a single movie. If you love shooter games and you enjoy a mystery thriller, than Max Payne is definitely the game for you.
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne continues the storyline where the first game left off. Reprise your role as Max Payne himself as he tries to make peace with the tragic loss he had experienced... and failed. He still has many questions that haunt him and a femme fatale murder suspect that he met during a routine murder investigation might be the only person who can unlock the answers. Of course, the underworld is keen on keeping Max in the dark and will do whatever it needs to silent him and his new companion, perhaps once and for all.Featuring the epic and intense storytelling that had amassed a somewhat cult-like following for the game franchise, Max Payne 2 promised a story coupled with its hallmark slow-motion gameplay that will dig deep into your emotional reserves as you watch Max himself descend deeper into his own personal hell. This game is definitely a must-have for fans of the game series.
