Max Payne 3 is a third-person shooter in which the player assumes the role of its titular character, Max Payne. Max Payne 3 features a similar over-the-shoulder camera as its predecessors, with the addition of a cover mechanic, while also retaining much of the same run-and-gun style of gameplay. Max Payne 3 also marks the return of bullet-time in action sequences, for which the franchise is notable.
In bullet-time it is possible to see every bullet strike an enemy in detail. New to the series is a “Last Stand” mechanic, which gives the player a grace period after losing all health during which time the player may kill the enemy that wounded them in order to continue playing, however this mechanic is only usable if the player has one or more bottles of painkillers in their possession.
Another demanding Direct X 11 engine which brings the lower cost graphics cards to their knees. The Asus GTX670 Direct CU Mini scores well however, maintaining smooth frame rates throughout.
A nice idea, but very expensive for what you get.
I think for what it is designed for its good, but with that premium they will be lucky to sell a lot of them. Saw this reviewed before and was impressed but the price is still sky high.
Id love this for my media system, perfect size, but I can’t afford that – they should bring out a 660 version.
