Criminal Case: Mysteries of the Past vs Max Payne 3
Criminal Case: Mysteries of the Past
Criminal Case: Mysteries of the Past is the third spin-off from Pretty Simple's hit investigative-themed hidden object game series, Criminal Case. This time around, instead of being set in the modern world, Criminal Case brings you back into the 80s where you play as a rookie detective on his/her very first case. Search for and collect evidence from the crime scenes, send them for analysis, and accumulate enough proof so you can make the arrest.In a nutshell, Criminal Case: Mysteries of the Past is a pretty generic sequel to the Criminal Case series. It offers more of the same in terms of gameplay, but the game is set in a very different world and of course, you’ll get to enjoy a brand-new storyline and interact with a new cast of characters. This game will definitely appeal to existing fans of Criminal Case games and the great thing is you can play this game concurrently with the other Criminal Case game apps.
That being said, there are plenty of criminals in this game that you’ll have to catch in Concordia, so be sure to get right to it!
Max Payne 3
Max Payne 3 is the latest sequel to the Max Payne franchise. The story in this game continue to follow Max's struggles with the tragedies and losses he experienced but this time around, he is no longer a cop but a bodyguard who is in charged of protecting the family of a billionaire real estate mogul. However, things went terribly wrong and Max finds himself in a foreign city hunting down the kidnappers and also the truth to his past. With the storyline in mind, the developers have added plenty of nice cinematic scenes to further increase the immersion of its compelling narrative.Not to mention, the game also greatly improved its slow-motion-based gameplay with the addition of the Rockstar Games' proprietary Advanced Bullet Time® and Shootdodge™ and Final Kill-cam mechanics that guarantees some epicly stylish shooting action. Every bit of the gameplay is brilliant rendered to incredible detail as well, giving the slow-motion aspect of its gameplay the kind of high quality that many have praised the game for.
Max Payne 3 is an astoundingly well-made sequel when it comes to gameplay, but many fans have noted that this game oddly lacks the noir feel that had made the franchise unique in the first place. Perhaps it is just part of the franchise's evolution to being a mainstream game, or maybe the developers just want to try something new. Regardless, if you're a fan of the Max Payne story, you might have a bit of a mixed feeling about this game. But if you're just in for the slow-motion-infused shooting action, then you won't be disappointed!
