this dësu

And no second season after that mindfuck of a cliffhanger? Fuuuuuck youuuuuuuuu network!

>>79527686
I thought that SPOILERS him being the killer was a solid ending though. I didn't get to see the last episode though, some cleaner guy that came to my building told me.
Can I watch it online somewhere?

>>79527478
>implying Max Payne 1 isn't the best writing video games have to offer

its parody of noir writing is spot on, while also managing to be genuinely dark and disturbing

>>79527170
Is it cucking when your split personality fucks your gf? Also i thought he was just killing people and it wasn't sexual.

>>79527856
Oh right he had a gf, but still.

Is this the Alan Wake thread?

>>79527735
Netflix doesn't have this or Lords And Ladies. Pretty sad.

>The rain was coming down like all the angels in Heaven decided to take a piss at the same time. When you're in a situation like mine, you can only think in metaphors.
What did he mean by this?

>>79527816
Max Payne 2 is better written tbqh

>>79528618
he was trying to poke fun at the noir genre while being an edgelord

>>79528618
No Dick Justice episodes in that whole game
At least we had Lords and Ladies

>>79528696
They're both good, but I feel 1 is better as both a parody and a grimdark noir tale, whereas 2 is a better told story, but in a more general way.

>>79528784
Agreed.

>>79528784
Saliently put

>>79528784
That sounds quite accurate

>>79527816

THIS

You couldn't make the same mix of goofiness and serious revenge revenge tale work on film. And actually no film has depicted abandoned snow filled streets as good as max payne.

Max Payne 1 is art

>>79528784
This.
Especially the drugged part when he realizes First that he's in comic book and than later that he's in the game.
Also
>that ammount of easter eggs and pop-culture refferenves
Why gamea today don't have it?

>>79528784

I don't like how 2 retconned some key plot points in 1 but the romantic tension between him and Mona is THE best thing ever written in a videogame.

There's other stuff that's really good too though, especially Vlad's betrayal, even worse the way he manipulated that female cop, and to really drive home how fucked up it all was is that her blind son has to grow up alone thanks to you.

>>79529033
I really wanna replay 1 now. In fact, that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

>>79529123
same here omg

who else /putsongodmodeandusessnipertolookcloselyatgoonsfaces/ here?

Max Payne 1 and 2 are pure kiŋo and love to games and storytelling

The graphics and gameplay still hold up fämälämäs.

this game gave me noir fetish. i watch only 30'-50's gangster/film noir or some neo-noir.

>>79529057
Well GTA V had a lot of pop culture easter eggs but they were kind of dumb and in your face. For example the aliens look like the aliens from Alien, you can see the No Country for Old Men pickups parked somewhere, stuff like that.

>>79529175
Hehe
I did that at least once

>John who?

what do you say?

>>79529207
Gta V is a memegame for underage kids

>>79528784

Don't care as long as we agree Max Payne 3 wasn't even a MP game

>>79529354
I agree 100%

>3 was just a shitty ripoff of Man on Fire
>with no humor
>no easter egg type world interaction
>no bad guy dialogue before killing them
>annoying checkpoints
fucking Rockstar

They had that tho

>>79529565
>unskippable cutscene

>>79529693
>goons talk in portuguese

I was so disappointed it didn't have that classic bad guy banter with new yawk accents in it

God the movie was a letdown. The game had such a great noir vibe. And the music equals Deus Ex's music for me.

Second one had some great memorable tunes as well. Kärtsy Hatakka and Kimmo Kajasto did a great job with both games.

these are entirely wrong though

Sam should bring back Address Unknown since Twin Peaks is coming back

>>79530500

checked but you still got to point to the humour in MP3. Go.

IT'S PAYNE WHACK'IM!

>>79529057
Videogames cost so much these days that they don't really have time or money to "waste" in hidden content. There's also the fact modern games are made for reviewers to limit the risks (because high scores=more sales) so everything must be shown at the first walkthrough since most reviewers don't have the time to play the same game twice.
The industry has changed a lot since the AAA format appeared in the late 2000's.

>>79530662
Yeah, the game industry is completely fucked. Glad I grew out of that 'hobby'.
the state of cinema isn't much better tho

>>79530639

BLAST THE SUCKA!

>>79529693

they were just loading times masked as cutscenes, payneful stuff

I just want Remedy to make another MP game. One that's set in NY.

this ehh
no more storylines and atmosphere like in Max Payne or Legacy of Kain
>>79530957
this also ehh

I know a lot of people dislike Alan Wake, but I really loved it. Great game to play at 3am when you have insomnia. Headphones also necessary. It's creepy as hell when you're running through the forest and you can hear enemy footsteps behind you, breaking twigs and stuff.

How to spot a teenager on /tv/: They use the word cuck.
