I can't beleive no one has been talking about this game! What game? Max Payne 2 of course. I traded for it a little while ago and have been putting in ten minutes spurts here and there. It is a lot of fun, the bullet time is very cool. I played the first one, but there is a "new" bullet time that lets you keep moving at a quicker pace (there are two types of bullet time now), but other things slow down. The spinning reload in that mode is a must see.

The weapons are deadly, I love my duel pistols! But the ingrams (sp?) are a lot of fun too! Some of them are very deadly. Max will hurt like heck after taking a saw-off in the chest. There are a lot of weapons it seems, I have a large collection of them already in the 1st chapter. You'll need them.

There will be a lot of gunfire point at you too... You'll learn not to run into a new room without being ready for something bad soon. The AI is kind of smart too. They'll wait for you in a room, behind a door, or even run to get away from you to find a good spot to fire from. I've had a few of them run from me and hide, they will wait for you to forget about them before jumping out again! Darn mob, must have get some brains.

Watching the bullets fly by as you send Max diving behind some boxes is really amazing. The holes in the wall the guns make and the clouds of dust that spurt out add an ever more appealing sense of style to the game. You might get shot diving around just to see the smoke pour out in slow mode like me :).

So far, I'm really digging this one if you couldn't tell. I hear the game can be fairly short, but with my 10mins spurts I hope to take a good time to get to know Mr. Payne again.

I've been keeping my eye on MP2 but with two SWG chars and a pre-order of Call of Duty... :wink:

Half-Life 2 (whenever it shows up) and MP2 are definitely on my short list.

It was short, but I liked it. To bad they make you play on easy before they give you a harder setting. Never understood that.
