May 20, 2012Over rated, it's not like it's terrible, but the multi is a worthless joke, and single player is mediocre at best. The only real selling point is that the graphics are pretty good. Blah, just spend your money on something more original.

May 27, 2012Clumsy controls, unskippable cutscenes, irritating graphic effects, tedious narration, this is a bad movie that lets you play the action scenes. Great looking, decent AI, everything else sucked. I will not drink the Kool aid. And stop comparing this to RDR, that was a near perfect game, this is a very flawed effort.

Nov 3, 2012An excellent shooter, with a story that seems to drag on and on. The most annoying part was with the cut scenes. You play for 10mins and then youre forced to watch a 2 min clip. without the option of skipping it. This would be fine, but it happens way too often.

Jun 19, 2012Fun game and good story line. However this game is simply too overrated, the voices are extremely annoying and the control mechanics need much fixing. Disappointing!

Jun 9, 2012Never played Max Payne before so this was my first. The graphics are unbelievable and the story is engaging. It gets very boring to just basically shoot, run, shoot, duck. Wish I had waited longer for a price drop, but I still enjoyed it. Certainly not Rockstar's best, but even their average games are much better than most.

Jan 28, 2015The story is weak, I wasnt too much interested what is going on. Except little at the end. Action is still okey. Some locations are boring some are pretty nice. This is the weakest part of the serie so far.

Nov 21, 2012Sat down to play this about a month ago and couldn't get past the first couple of hours due to pure boredom. It was watch a 5 min cut scene, play, and then watch a another long cut scene. I found it to be boring..

Jul 11, 2012Decent game, love the graphics-quality is amazing. On the down-side the story was not that interesting and you come to wonder why Max is even there (his narrative is rather depressing). It did feel a bit repetitive but overall worth buying. Even on normal difficulty quite challenging-which is fine if it were not for the uneven spikes in difficulty.

Jul 9, 2012An engaging story, extremely satisfying shoot-outs phenomenal graphics turn Max Payne 3 undoubtedly into one of the best shooters of 2012. It's a shame that Rockstar doesn't seem to know where to place their checkpoints.

Jun 29, 2012Max Payne 3 brings back the depressed and trigger-happy former cop, in a new and surprisingly entertaining chapter of his life. Rockstar has brought the story to São Paulo, equipped Max with a few new tricks and made everything look a bit more polished and updated. The addition of a well-rounded multiplayer proves to be a stroke of genious that adds loads of extra hours of fun gameplay.

Jun 22, 2012Max Payne 3 is an excellent farewell, but ultimately it's not as relevant as it was in the past. It has nothing to teach to the "new" shooters.
