1>3>2

it's a difficult one but 1 just has that pre 2001 SOVL, 2 has the pre half-life 2 physics and 3 is simply the greatest third person shooter ever made

none of them are bad but only one can be best

2>1
3 is not Max Payne.

>>211498223
says max payne on the box doesn't it

i had a dream of my wife she was
TURNING HUMANS INTO GLUE
but it was alright

>>211498183 (OP)
2 > 1 > 3
3 is not bad but >>211498223 is right.

>>211498183 (OP)
Not film.

wrong

>>211498183 (OP)
there are only 2 max paynes

>>211498183 (OP)
Only the first game is decent

Max Payne 3 was a fitting conclusion to the series despite the writing differences between the first 2 and it makes sense for Max to be a complete alcoholic wreck. Brazil was a great fish out of water contrast setting for Max Payne and it wouldn't been boring if they kept it in New York.

would've been boring***

Payback was a better Max Payne movie than this shit

>>211498183 (OP)
THERE ARE THREE OF THESE MOVIES?!

>>211498183 (OP)
Shame that Jackman is too old now, he would've been a great Max Payne in a decent live-action. That movie adaptation was soulless as fuck, they failed to create a neo-noir atmosphere and made it into a generic Jason Statham type of slop.

>it makes sense for Max to be a complete alcoholic wreck
No it doesn't. He moved on after the end of 2, why's he still tortured and depressed?

>>211498223
Yep, this is basically it. I do not care about some fagged up Rockstar Max Payne, but I also wouldn't want a current-day trannyloving Remedy version either anyway. The first game was carried entirely by its concept and quickly became repetitive. 2 fixed this a bit. I do miss Sam Lake's stupid face, though.

emotionless autist doesn't understand how trauma works

>>211503686
I don't care if that's "how trauma works". Max's arc in 2 was him getting over the death of his wife and kids, so having him regress back in 3 to repeat the same arc is just bad storytelling.

>>211504768
you realized his gf Mona died too right, his only way of newfound love which reminded him of his dead wife and kid too. So that's double to intake, and 3 references all the people he failed to save not just his family

>>211505119
the final line of 2 showed he had finally come to terms with everything and let go of the past. now in 3 he acts like he's never moved on.

>>211503499
>why doesn't a noir have a happily ever after ending

>>211498183 (OP)
if max was on that plane... whooo boy... things would've been... let's just say "different"

>TURNING HUMANS INTO GLUE
genuinely what was up with that line lmao
