It is criminal these videos don't have more views. I'm glad to be here before the big bang though. Been binge watching all your videos dude. New favorite youtuber.
Another certified banger. Remedy doesn’t miss. I loved the Max Payne games, and the more recent stuff hasn’t disappointed either, with Control being one of the best games I’ve ever played. Keep up the great work.
Thank you, as always, brotha. Im ashamed to admit that, despite owning it and really enjoying what I've played thus far, I still haven't finished Control. I have to...Remedy...that. 😎 Ok I'm done
my 6 year old son lost an egg and spoon race....he was devastated ... i let him play max payne 2 .... and he just won the 800 metres AND the 100 metres in a high school with 16+ year olds....at the age of 6....he has also just drove home with the shopping and is currently wielding twin berretta's ....we couldnt be prouder...what a kid...what a game. Gnomesaying?
@@HyperTensionJohnny it was all a lie....i had no children and i had no life....the rain beats down on the window as i contemplate my next move...do i wait for the max payne 3 video....or do i change my name via deed poll to max payne and dive through a second story window while i play the matrix slo mo sound effect from 60k speakers........confusion....decisions in the end there was only one way to decide....i took a deep breathe and threw myself up the chimney and into space.
I haven't actually gotten around to Max Payne 2 yet despite the first being a childhood favorite of mine, so I'm gonna come back to this video later but I'm happy to see a follow up to the Max Payne video so soon. Keep up the good work
Excellent video. I have such fond memories of this game. It's a classic. Great atmosphere, story and gameplay. I played this game after finishing The Punisher and I always associate them with each other.
Thank you for being among the very few that mention the police station level, where you just interact with people and objects. I always found the details impressive in there. You can even visit the operator’s room, and even the case room where you can see the connections and photos on the projector. The fact that you can recruit people, the mobsters, or the homeless guy and the prostitute, and they can actually die if you are not careful, without affecting the outcome, of course. As for the length of the game, I would like to remind people that there are countless mods you can download and install, which brings you more hours of fun. I remember one of my favorite was street fighter, which was a complete conversion, with sf characters, stages, story, and fighting.
I remember the Lethal Mod where you could die in a bullet or two, which was awesome. I remember the SF conversion from like, 15 years ago. Time flies, man. I should do a video on that 🤔 Thank you for watching, I'm happy you enjoyed it! 🤘🏻
Yes, success!! Great vid, and so glad to hear the return of that thick-ass beat from the Max Payne 1 video. The length of this game doesn't matter as much as the absolute girth. It's one of the few games I've went back and played through numerous times on all the difficulties because it's Max 1 on super steroids. And both games are fantastic so upping anything in the sequel must have been no small feat. That mode where you just kill the shit outta bad guys for as long as possible was a nice addition as well. Again, awesome vid! Here's hoping you hit the thousand sub make soon enough!
Great video, always thought 2 was unfairly maligned compared to the original. Also would love a full version of that track from around 28:40/the start of the Chaos Theory video, it's super cool
Great video. Didn't know they were remaking these games. Been a while since I've seen that Bill Hicks bit at the end, its great. The dude had so much angry passion.
Amazing work man, I'm really surprised you don't get more views and subs. Damn, what a quality channel I can't even comprehend Keep up lad, you gain a loyal subscriber a few videos ago
5:22 the dialogue is slightly different in this version than mine. ntw YOU MAKE A GREAT VIDEO AND GAINED ASUBSCRIBER FROM AN ALL TIME FAN OF THE SERIES.
after watching this i have a few things to say. first off let me say my man you make some good vids. keep up the good work. second i feel you should be in the big leagues with the editing game bruh...i also had a theory to pose that the letters in max payne overdose on V dream/nightmare were written by alan wake since alan wake 2 is on my mind. yeah.
Great video. Even though Max Payne 2 (and the other two by extent) boasts brilliant gameplay, atmosphere, music and level design, the story is absolutely incredible. This is the kind of story that in my opinion is a golden example on how literature can be moving, and having it in a video game doesn't make it any less important. Suffice to say the whole Max Payne trilogy has a lot of messages about life and the reality of the world, but The Fall of Max Payne is pure magic because in all of it's moody rain-soaked noir violence, it gave me hope in one of the darkest times of my life. Thank you for this video, and god bless Sam Lake.
Beautiful essay about a beautiful game! I adore the MP trilogy, and I think every game outdoes the previous one. MP1 is very good, MP2 is great, MP3 is a masterpiece!
@@HyperTensionJohnny holy shit lol I remember making that, that’s means a lot man also you can anticipate a kenshi shitpost in coming few days stay with your work man it’s inspiring as fuck
I look forward to it! I never got to play Kenshi, but it always sounded pretty dope for a game made by one dude. Thank you for the kind words. Just getting started 🍻
One of the best games of all time And it's so comforting to see that people actually like Max Payne 2 more than Max Payne 1 Max Payne 2 just feels more lively by it's atmosphere, in-game television with more shows and commercials, goons talking among each other about their errands or life in general, the character models,and such It doesn't feel like a controllable character put in a map to finish the level and move onto the next one like the first one does Max Payne 1 felt like this: Okay. So here's a character you can control and here's the map, explore it, kill enemies, complete the level It felt more like an errand rather than a feeling to uncover what this chapter had to offer and move the story forward Talking about Map Payne 3 well it's just GTA 5 with shooting mechanics and feels like The Godfather Part 3 of the video games made purely more the purpose of raking in more money and not caring about what Max Payne is all about And on top of that, James Mccafrey wasn't even told about Max Payne 3 and it's development. He visited Rockstar and asked for him to do the voiceover for part 3 again Map Payne 3 was going to be completely different as they did not even bother calling the original voice actor to do justice to the game again And making Max bald and go into the favelas of Brazil or whatever the fuck that was in broad day light unlike the noir esque atmosphere of Max Payne 2 was a pure atrocity on the franchise Nothing beats Max Payne 2
Dude, I loved the shows in MP 2. I had originally written an entire piece about them, but cut it for pacing. Dick Justice, Address Unknown, Lords and Ladies, etc. But, yeah, agreed. Max 2 is the tops.
That’s genuinely one of the absolute worst takes on not just Max Payne 3, but any work of fiction I’ve ever read: you CLEARLY not only misunderstood MP3, but the character, and entire franchise as a whole.
Also, as a game/systems designer in the industry, I happen to know a few people that worked on MP3, and if you honestly done believe they were ABSOLUTELY passionate about the game, and didn’t craft it with complete perfection and respect for the character and series in mind, you are hopeless, and a fool.
@@masamune2984 The reason Max is the way he is in Max Payne 3 is because breaking bad was at it's zenith in 2011 and 2012. That show was the main reason why a bald head and goatee was looked at as being badass regardless of what the actual character is like That show was the main reason behind including a south american/ mexican esque storyline Max is an angry gringo here who does not use much of his intellect as he did in the past I have no doubt your friends who worked on this lacked any passion and interest It's the executive dept. making the decisions to rake in money and making the employees like developers and designers to make it a certain way so as to sell more copies Like I said, Max Payne 3 is the The Godfather 3 of video games
oh yeah, i love how you can see the shells and the the bullets flying everything, atmosphere... i remember years after max payne 2, the game came out enter the matrix, in the bullet time how the bullets were flying were ridiciuluis compared to max payne hahahaha
I'm playing that right now. Just got to the police station at the end. I absolutely love this game. I had it day one. The gunplay and animations are legendary.
Max Payne 2 was a great sequel but it wasn't perfect. The story was actually awful. This love story was just stupid. It was like Same Lake really ran out of ideas. But the gameplay and the graphics were amazing and the game still had that dark atmosphere. The physics and attention to detail in max Payne 2 were perfect and the gameplay was over the top action and satisfying as hell.
That's fair. I personally enjoyed the story, as simple as the overall parameters were, because I just love the character of Max Payne that much. But, I respect your opinion all the same. And, yeah, in the end, the game is so much fun to play. That's what really counts, of course.
here i was, some entitled youtube commentor demanding the max payne 3 video only a week after the 2nd and i realised, they were right...i wouldnt know right from wrong if one was helping the poor and the other was banging my sister

I'm a huge fan of the Punisher. Check my vid.
There's also a mod that combines the two

Coming from the future to confirm that by most accounts, Alan Wake 2 was phenomenal 👏
Is it? I've been really itching to try it, but haven't just yet. It looks more survival horror-ish, which I prefer. Or am I wrong?
Ngl that whole 'love is like a chemical bomb' was some good shit I could see that line being said for Max Payne 4 lmao
Thank you, buddy, very kind of you. Ah, Max 4...if only 🤞
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the third game
Looking forward to it, man. Thank you for watching, as always. Btw did you like the Dead Space remake?
@@HyperTensionJohnny I loved it!
I loved the original so I was curious what you thought. I gotta play it
@@HyperTensionJohnny I’ll keep it spoiler free. It was a remake well deserved.
Max Payne 2, Bioshock, Fallout 3. Still my favourite games of all time. (And Skyrim, of course.)
Same, played hundreds and hundreds of hours of FO3 and have beaten Bioshock many, many times. Truly wonderful titles.
