max payne was the stepping stone in videogames using the "slo-mo" effect, every since this game released every game has tried to use it, most suck, but a few do it right, like the path of neo, the sequal to max payne and a few others. In max payne you assume the role of new york detective payne, who on his way to his wife and child, comes home to find hisa house broken into, on his way up the stairs, he hears the blood curdling screams of his family, then the gun shots. then silence,killed by junkies hooked on the drug called valkyr. Gone mad, max gets revenge on those responsible, during the game you will get a wide variety of weapons, from baseball bats to the 12 gauge pump action, the cutscenes in max payne are some of the finest games ever produced, it really grabs your attention and the voice of max payne actually makes you feel like your him. The game is gritty, its violent, and not for those who prefer "T" rated games, unlike upsetgamer, this game commands talent and skill, and its easy to enjoy, so if your interested, pick it up!
