my son always play this game on week end and he likes it..

this game has great action good game flow nice assortment of weapons .

Rockstar Games does a decent job on the continuation of the Max Payne series. Parents should be aware of the intense violence when considering a game purchase for their children.

The gameplay was ok. The only thing keeping it from being great was that you couldn't really skip the cutscenes.

purchased this to see how well it played , game play was good grafix were ok . have not finished game yet

Fun game, it reminds me of the old Max Payne from back on the original Xbox. It's easy to learn. Haven't finished the campaign yet though.

This is a fun game to play alone or with your friends

Nice story and movies series that deserves to play it on Xbox.

Keeps you intense and when u start playing it its hard to stop

Fun to play, very challenging. The story line is great, Max is the Clint Eastwood or Arnold of video games.

I wanted to buy this and I love it. Would recommend it to someone

Been wanting to buy this for awhile. Gives the same great play as the previous 2 games.

This video game is great. It had just come out!!!!

A great product for anyone to have as well as being easy to use.

My husband loves it. It was one of the games that he wanted for his bday.

the world is changing and so the people. one hero max

Had other max payne games, loved them. Not this one, difficult to stay with the story line. Slow, too much talking. Weapons not to great eighter.

After playing through the game on medium difficulty and going through again on hard difficulty I can honestly say that I love max payne 3. I had been waiting many years since the 2nd one to play this game and I am not disappointed at all. This is one of the best action games i have ever played. Rockstar has brought back max payne in the best way possible. The story is great and makes you keep playing and compliments the action wonderfully. Gameplay is pretty much perfected. Bullet-time is,again, the main focus in this game and it works better than ever. Rockstar has truly outdone itself with physics and animation. Bullets rip through bodies while leaving behind devastating damage and enemies will react realistacly depending on where they are shot. This attention to detail also applies to max payne. You really have to pay attention to where you use the bullet dodge in this game. Your dodge will be cut short if you do it too close to a wall or other object. Max will brace for impact as he is about to dive into an object leaving him vulnerable. The AI is something to mention. It's some of the best I have seen in a game. Even just starting to play the game on medium difficulty I was getting worked over simply because the enemies would take advantage of every opportunity when I was focusing too long on another enemy. They flank and charge and use team work to take you down. It makes these encounters with them all that much more intense. Intelligently using bullet-time is a must. This isn't the best looking game I have ever seen but it still looks really good. Characters are animated superbly especially max payne. The evnironments really stand out here. Every location is chuck full of details big and small that make this game come alive. Having a firefight in an office is thrilling when there's glass and paper flying every where and walls and pillars are breaking away while computers and tables are getting knocked over. Rockstar definitely took advantage of the time they had with these environments to make them fun to play in. Like I said, the story is great. This is due to excellent voice acting in the game. Max Payne has some of the best voice work I have ever heard. He really helps carry the story a long with his cynical and sarcastic comments that made me laugh constantly. This game was definitely made for max payne fans. If you loved the other games then you will most likely love this one as well. If you didn't then it probably won't convert you. I have heard negative comments about the game that I think are unfair. Like this game doesn't have innovative gameplay. I find this to be unfair simply because many games haven't had the most innovative gameplay. Call of duty, halo sequals, mario bros. games, etc. are all great games but aren't exactly innovative when it comes to gameplay nowadays. I think these games are great, for example, because it takes its gameplay but sets it in creative environments that make you play it in creative ways. This is what I think rockstar has done with max payne. They have taken the max payne formula and have added great visuals, animation, details, story, environments, etc. to make a new experience for max payne fans. Oh yeah, the multiplayer is a blast as well. It will keep you playing after you have beaten the game. I definitely recommend picking this one up.

Excellent game!! For all you Max Payne fans out there this one is by far the best in the series yet!! A must have! A must own game! The special effects are excellent followed by tremendous detail and sound during game play. It comes with a very unique story line that i wish would have been the script for the movie instead because it was great!! It grips you and doesn't let you go. I just finished the entire game last night and it left me rooting for more. If you like fast shooting! followed with bullet time! guns blazing action with tremendous detail and blood gore this is the right game for you!! What can I say! It was definately worth waiting 9 years for....

I have and liked max payne since playstation 2 and xbox...
