Good on the PS2, but not great as the PC! [Posted on 2005-05-06]
The story is engrossing, I have to admit that I really like this game. But there are a good amount of problems, A) Too few levels and the levels that exist are too short. B)Graphics are avg at best
and C)the jumping/falling off ledges so frequently gets tiring.

But the pro's do outweigh the cons.
A) Great sound, B) A deep storyline, C) Cool guns, D) Some of the levels will really make you think.
The bottom line is that if you like this game, get the pc version! You can get 35 more levels on it!!

Quite Payneful [Posted on 2005-06-07]
This game is pretty cool.But Not as cool as the first.The first addition has better graphics in all.but this one the audio isnt so great.Im a HUGE Max Payne fan.But the first had more action,lots more.

What a terrible dissapointment... [Posted on 2006-02-21]
So, if you've played the original MP you know how extrordinarily beautiful and dark and twisted it was. So, as usual you anticipate the follow up. This installment, is a shoddy, trashy version. The graphics look like a PS1 title, the story is boring. The deep save screens are terrible. Also, since you spend more time watching and hearing the graphic novel than playing the game it gets frustrating. If you don't save every two seconds and you die, you have to watch all the cutscened (boring as they are) all over again. You can skip them, but the time it takes to load the game after you skip them is just as long as watching them. There is no violence in this game.. The A.I. is terrible. The bullet time and dodging is okay, but not as stellar as the first. I'd skip this one, it's not worth it. There are rumors of a Max Payne 3 that are promising to deliver because even the company said they were dissapointed in how this game turned out. SO maybe we'll have that to look forward to.

Better than original Max Payne [Posted on 2006-11-03]
This is a dark and deep game that I enjoyed greatly. It's exciting, it has interesting twists, and it's a very good shooter at it's core. The locations you play are great. The sound is great. I had no problem with the movements of the players. You get to play as Max and Mona. I put it up with one of the best games of it's genre.

Bring on Max Payne 3!

way worse than the first!!! [Posted on 2008-01-02]
I bought this game for $1 brand new and much more would not have been worth it. I loved the first Max Payne. The story and game play was great and challenging and long. this one had a terrible story and they changed a lot of things to be worse than the first. the weapons are much worse, and Max isn't as ironic and funny. there is basically no plot, you just play missions. In one cut seen Max gets shot point blank in the head and gets up with only a headache!!! the only reason i gave it two stars is because it was still kinda fun to kill bad guys and i got it so cheap. this game definitly does not live up to the first and very much disapointed me. If you havent played the first one i definitly recommend it but don't waste your time with the sequal
