Why was it such a kino masterpiece compared to the soulless, phoned-in turd that was the sequel?

>>11869540 (OP)
Did Max Payne 2 rape your mother?

>>11869540 (OP)
because it was passion project by people exited to enter the gaming industry
while the second game was madde after the developers were high off their own farts from all the praise they recived after the first game
that's why the sequel insisted upon itself they went full pretentious mode instead of making a good game they wanted to make an ''arsty'' slop

Mona should've stayed dead in the first game, the ''romance'' in 2 was garbage

>>11869667
The cover art is pure kino though

>>11869540 (OP)
Here's a better question, why are you going on a rampage and spamming Max Payne 1 and how 2 was so awful, which was generally well liked?

>>11869709
>which was generally well liked
no it wasn't

>>11869710
Yes it was. I was there when it released, zoomer. Fans loved its physics engine.

>>11869729
>Fans loved its physics engine.
And hated everything else. It flopped like a turd in the toilet bowl and sold so poorly that it killed the franchise.

>>11869739
Max Payne 2 is king and beloved. Your family had it coming when the developers raped them.

>>11869729
>Fans loved its physics engine
the same pathetic cope used by Half Life 2 fags
your tech demo fucking sucks

>>11869559
I presume the whole Remedy was involved.

>>11869771
Tech demos are good games. Eat shit you moron. Worthless NPC parrot. Faggot.

>>11869771
>the entire Half-Life 2 series is now retro enough for this board
>Half-Life 1 is so old it would be considered a primitive early 3D fps
HLboomers need to accept that even if HL3 gets made nobody cares if Gordon Freeman finally kills the space aliens at this point.

>>11869667
>they went full pretentious mode instead of making a good game they wanted to make an ''arsty'' slop
...so, a passion project? kek

OP is a fag.

Yet it still bothers me why Remedy saw it appropriate to make a player go through such stupid shit right from the start in MP2. Sure, most games have issues with retarded or boring levels but usually it happens somewhere in the middle or even at the end but NOT IN THE VERY BEGINNING ffs.
I guess I could forgive them for the hospital nonsense. But feeding me that warehouse slop immediately after? Fuck them.

Thanks god MP1's replayability is pretty high.

It's very simple OP

MP1 has the Kung Fu 3.0 mod

MP2 on the other hand does not.

The guns were cooler in max payne 2
They are remaking both max paynes as we speak

>>11869667
Max Payne 1 &2 and for that matter 3 are gud games
The end

>>11869729
>Yes it was. I was there when it released, zoomer.
this

>>11869739
Oh look, its one of the monsters from the darkness, the mean evils spiteful hated ones who try and attack anything and everything that is 8bit/ps1/ps2/xbox/amiga/atari/pc because it is not their chosen shit
>>11869729
They don;t even play them they just pick random loved platforms and games to spam shit like this, usually based on 5 minutes of some youtube dickhead doing engagement click bait 'well akshully people only liked doom because it was bing bing'

>>11869771
>the same pathetic cope used by Half Life 2 fags
>your tech demo fucking sucks

>>11872068
MP1 and MP2 are both on the same platforms you fucking retarded schizo. MP1 is just a far better game

>>11872070
Half Life 2 is the most reddit retro game tho

>>11869540 (OP)
are you trying to get known as a "schizo" that people look back on? you made this thread like last week

>>11869540 (OP)
MP1 has meatier gunplay with faster bullets, snappier movement system, no silly ragdoll shit, and more atmospheric writing.

Payne!

>>11873501
Reddit despises HL2 you retard.
