Max Payne is dripping with style, and all of itself works perfectly in conjunction with its other parts. The gameplay focused on pulling off slow-motion acrobatic stunts during gunfights is very satisfying and meshes well with the various setpieces.

Story’s great too, from the presentation to the protagonist who strikes the perfect blend between badass and tragic, to the slightly mythological/surreal slant it takes at some points, with tons of tiny little subtleties that I appreciated a lot.
