Cinematic action comes to the PlayStation 2 in the form of the unbelievable MAX PAYNE. Adding new elements of storytelling to the action genre, the game unfolds like an old crime novel or film noir. You’ll play as the title character making your way through a massive criminal underworld in the hope of solving a series of vicious crimes. Each of the game’s massive environments is wholly destructible, which means that your machine gun fire and other combat has the capacity to put holes and walls, shatter glass, and shred up paper that’s lying around. Brilliant, 3D graphics and character animations are present throughout the experience, and you can actually decide whether you want the gunfights to play out in real time or slow motion. The linear storyline relies on you to determine exactly how goals are accomplished, making for totally original gameplay and frighteningly steep replay value. If you’re looking for an epic adventure to eat up a few weeks of your life, take a bite out MAX PAYNE.
