Obviously GameSpot is short on exclusives for now.
someone actually say something about the game! what new features separate it from the first one? or is it just, like, new plot, new areas, and new weapons? if so, *yawn*

The obvious (graphic updates, the stuff you listed) The full's mazes are shorter Havok physics debut; if you want to see what'll get used in Deus Ex 2 and HL2, see this "New York Minute" unlockable mode <s>replaced</s> added to "Dead Man Walking", roughly equivalent to deathmatch in singleplayer -- only you don't get to respawn when everyone else does. Different handling of bullet-time; encourages you to rush through like a killing machine/action movie hero. [following item edited to remove possible spoiler]MP2's best missions are those where you co-operate with other character(s). Two particular levels are memorable. True networked/internet co-op and multiplayer are just as missing as they were in MP1.
there are dream sequences but they're not annoying like in the first one...no mazes <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

I downloaded a weraz version (please don’t kill me) of max payne one. I still want to get it just because I don’t feel right taking away a game that I should have paid for. I just cant find it anywhere.
MP2 must be the bomb.
to bad I have less then 12 days till I ship out to the marine corp. ( you guys should throw me a party)
I was wondering a few things about the game, even though I haven't played it.
Off reviews that I've read: Why does Max look like he turned 30 years older? No more of that neat look he had in the original. How'd Max get out of jail? Last game ended with him about to be arrested, or so it seemed. If Max is mourning over his wife that badly, why is he having an affair with another woman?

Not tried the other type of Bullet Time yet. Must remember to.

The way he gets out is kinda explained in MP1, at the end. But it is also explained at the start of MP2 for those who can't remember
And just cos his wife and kid are dead, doesn't mean he can't love another woman, but he still wants revenge.

The reason Max has aged 30 years in appearence(when its only 2 years really), is because they got a whole new writer for the whole thing, and the first Max Payne was just the writer's face on the body. It was a temporary they never took off because they never knew how they wanted him to look. But when you think about it, he lookd young to have a wife and kid(he barely looked like 20 to me...). The writer said it'd be better, and more believable for a middle-aged guy to do this kind of thing, so they changed some of the original Max Panye's charictaristics(as far as I know).
To say the least, I got it working, and I'm gonna get this game, SOMEHOW. Don't ask me how, just trust that I will. Its amazing. My Dead Man Walking score isn't too good(only 1:52), but its a blast, as is the game, and the style it has. I'm surprised at the quality, its just amazing.
The thing that makes me happy the most- the fact that the coding is still just as good. I'm achieving stuff on my still clunky PC(upgrading soon, I swear. Its taking forever for some reason) that I couldn't run on my XBox with a decent framerate. I'm getting a FPS average of 24, and...wow. All the effects are great, I really love it.

Obviously GameSpot is short on exclusives for now.
Basically it is just new weapons, new plot, and new levels, but if that's not enough to make you play it, why did you even play the first one?
But also there are a lot more details added in that make it good. PLUS NO MAZES!
The full's mazes are shorter
Havok physics debut; if you want to see what'll get used in Deus Ex 2 and HL2, see this
"New York Minute" unlockable mode <s>replaced</s> added to "Dead Man Walking", roughly equivalent to deathmatch in singleplayer -- only you don't get to respawn when everyone else does.

Dead Man Walking is AWESOME (and no, it didn't replace New York Minute, it was just added on).
go AK47!
HOLY FAREAKING CRAP!
I love the new second type of bullet-time. it's actuallly useful.
plus it makes Max reload a clip in the time it takes a shell casing to drop.
MP2 must be the bomb.
to bad I have less then 12 days till I ship out to the marine corp. ( you guys should throw me a party)
good luck!
