After Y2K the end of the world had become a cliché. But who was I to talk, a brooding underdog avenger alone against an empire of evil, out to right a grave injustice? Everything was subjective. There were only personal apocalypses. Nothing is a cliché when it's happening to you.“
Gloriously pulpy, stylistic and violent, Max Payne feels every bit as (stylistically) cutting edge in 2024 as it did the first time I played it. Dialogue is deliciously overwrought, environments are delightfully drenched in atmosphere: everything in this game sells itself 105%. Every inch of this game is unabashedly cool as hell.
