Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne vs Past Cure
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.
Past Cure
Past Cure is a story-driven thriller/adventure game where you play as a Syrian ex-army veteran, Ian, who was kidnapped and subjected to horrific, and very much illegal, scientific experiments. As a result, Ian has gained superhuman mental capabilities, including the ability to conjure astral projections and use mind bashes to destroy objects, in addition to his already intensive military training from being a soldier. However, all of this comes at a terrible cost - Ian's mind is destabilized and only the effects of an experimental yet powerful drug called Blue is able to help him keep his mental demons at bay.Although the game contains game mechanics like shooting, melee combat (boxing) and stealth, Past Cure is still primarily a story-oriented adventure game. Progression here is pretty linear, as most single narrative games are, and there aren't a lot of depth when it comes to its game features, with the sole exception of its intriguing storyline and several puzzle-like scenarios. The atmosphere generated in the game is astounding though! The music, especially during creepy scenes, makes your skin crawl, and the game features plenty of brilliantly edited cutscenes with some cool cinematographic effects.
So, despite the negative reviews on Steam, Past Cure is a really well-made interactive experience, story-wise. However, if you're expecting anything else, such as a hardcore stealth-based game, then you might feel like the game's a huge let-down. At least now you know what you can expect before you purchase the game!
