The problem is brazil daylight what re 5 did to the whole spirit of resident evil max payne was always about deep winthin the city or in subways dark dark feeling to it at night time to give it a really really creepydark mood it dosent have any of that.. and im starting to believe that they only put in the music ... to try
to try giving it a old max payne feeling but in the end they failed in my book.
it looks pretty bad an nothing like the old games.

and to zombiefred no gta 4 is not a awesome game XD

When I think of Max Payne, I think of what the boxart called film noir(it was actually neo-noir).
Night, rain, snow, trench coats, and hair are not required for noir. Those things are merely stereotypes.

Its what helps giving max payne games that dark feeling together with the story that wont work here
this will be what fear 3 did to the fear series... the same crap is gonna happend all over yet again.
and its sad because max payne is such nice games ..it really is a shame.

It doesn't need to be in New York alone to have its noir themes. Far from it, Brazil is a great place to get the atmosphere and mood correct to what makes Max Payne so great. The day-time scenarios are nothing to worry about when they add additonal layers to the city and gameplay (another important part of what is Max Payne) so just got to wait and see more. The music was just used as a nod to the fans of the series and past titles really. Nothing more.

As for GTA4, it's a great game overall. Bad campaign? Sure, but it doesn't remove how great it was playing online, exploring the city yourself, and the amount of detail and ground-breaking technology that was released at the time (euphor ia). And all thes little issues were fixed in RDR.

its not a great game overrall its very clitchy and gameplay feels bad its not so good yes its fun to run over ragdolls but it dosent give you anything good at story..
as for max payne 3 the impression i got from the trailer was not good i just felt like it was another action game that the music was forced into it .. and have nothing to do with max payne at all
of course i hope im wrong i love max payne im just very skeptical at this point.
at least they could have giving us in game how it looks like instead of just cutscenes.

Got to agree to disagree there, with the regards of GTA4 and about it being "clitchy".

[Alexia_Ashford]

about it being "clitchy".

Bald Fat Max is full of win.
I absolutely LOVE Remedy and their work, but I think Rockstar will definetly deliver a good Max Payne game, after all, they have been involved from the very beginning; I found the change of setting refreshing.

Do want.

well i dont care if you 2 team up here but all honestly come on gta 4 is not a very good game its fun the first 10 min doing the same over and over killing people but thats it .. the story is so boring AMERICA ! the land of opportunitys we havent seen that at all before XD .....
and then we got the crap voice acting that makes resident evil original seem like a masterpiece..
i think they missed the whole point and feeling of max payne sadly.

[Zombie Fred]

well i dont care if you 2 team up here

[rehunk88]

well you are already teamed up xD 2 vs 1 NOT FAIR

Well, I guess nobody here has been to São Paulo. I've been there a couple of times, last one been June this year to visit a prison (which I might expand on if people want). Since the early hours in the morning there was a fog over some parts of the city, mostly because the Teitê River that crosses it, and it started to fade at like 11 am along with the polution. The downtown is like any big city, full of buildings that block the sun. There's a lot of abandoned buildings and work sites and I night you just don't go out alone in some places and all that jazz.

In short, it's like any big city, the daylight can only be a problem if they... well, make the game during the day. If they made the other Max Payne games during the day it doesn't it was in New York, it wouldn't have worked. I think people who actually live there, like Davi Redfield, can explain São Paulo a lot better than me but as long it's well done Max Payne 3 can work pretty well in Brazil.
