Max Payne 3's comic-inspired cutscenes revealed
While it may not copy the look of the first two games, the graphic novel-inspired movie sequences of Max Payne 3 are quite unique. In a new trailer released by Rockstar Games, you'll see exactly how they look.
When I previewed Max Payne 3 last year, I applauded the game's cinematic cutscenes. While it may not copy the look of the first two games, the graphic novel-inspired movie sequences are quite unique, thanks to dynamic text overlays, and Michael Mann-inspired camera and lighting work. In a new trailer released by Rockstar Games, you'll see exactly how they look.
"The game transitions from gameplay to cutscenes using a range of cinematic editing techniques," the video explains. "Without ever showing a loading screen." That should help keep you immersed.
Max Payne 3 will be available on PS3 and Xbox 360 on May 15th, with the PC release following two weeks later. That should PC players some time to enjoy Diablo 3 before bullet-time-jumping-in, right?

I am so fucking stoked.
-
The game is going to be so much fun.

-
this game looks fantastic ... PREORDER POSSIBLE
-
I can't believe how amazing this game is shaping up to be.
-
It doesn't really look like a Max Payne game, but it looks damn good. It's funny how in the course of its development people went from WTF IS THIS SHIT? to MY MONEY, JUST TAKE IT! (myself included)
-
So freaking excited.
-
I'm... Impressed.
-
This + GTA5 = Best gaming package of 2012. Nothing else even comes close.
-
It probably wont ever happen. But I'd love to see Rockstar cross the two games over in a subtle way. Maybe have Max Payne be a random civilian walking around in GTAV.

All this new information about the game got me really excited! And its coming out a week before my birthday so its a double-whammy!
They are truly upping the slow-motion ante here that they brought into gaming with the first two titles and that was unexpected! -
Huh, his apartment looks like it's the same one from Max Payne 2.
