Max Payne 2 Trailer Released

Marik_Steele · September 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">"Get ready for bullet-time 2.0"</div> Slow downloads for HL-related stuff got you down? Want to make use of all that unused bandwidth on that bragging-rights-fast connection of yours? The Max Payne 2 trailer may be on Fileshack and Fileplanet, but for those who don't feel like waiting upwards of 2 hours in their lines, you can get it <a href='http://www.rockstargames.com/maxpayne2/' target='_blank'>straight from the official site</a> (look under "gallery" rather than "downloads").

My current download speeds for it are going between 140-200 kbps, with no wait in line. Just fast enough to spend time on the site listening to the <i>absolute kick-arse</i> remake of the Max Payne theme music.

Hey, nice catch on the download there <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

mmm, 183kb/s, we shall see how this looks!

Marik_Steele · September 2003

Turns out it's shorter than I expected, but the graphics are <i>also</i> better than I had expected, and it gives the official release date at the end. Rock!

DOOManiac · September 2003

And we know how official release dates work, don't we kids? ;) (just kidding just kidding!)

All joking aside, good find Marik, I'm looking forward to seeing the uber OMG quality trailer, rather than the crappy IGN 160x120 one. I really loved Max Payne, thought it was one of the best games ever. Can't wait for 2...

23 KB/s... /me shakes his fist at his ISP

Windelkron · September 2003

470 kbps, eat that <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

So..... Max Becomes a cop again... how???

Surely the fact that he "murdered" about 5 million people (well, they started it) would make his chances of getting back on the force rather slim?

And I like the title "The Fall of Max Payne", you just know he's going to die at the end, in some hugely dramatic and cool manner.

UltimaGecko · September 2003

63.8 kb/s....woot, go uwsp.edu .....the worst cable network ever! EVER!
...least it's better than the 44kb/s I usually get.

I'd rather have the network back at home, 250kb/s guaranteed, generally faster.

Plus I get to have horrible pings that jump into the 400s on occasion, oh yay.

The music on that site rocks, it's awesome...If only I had had a better computer at the time, I would have the PC version of the game instead of the XBox version. Still good though <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'> .

Listening to: far to annoyed at my networks bandwidth limitations to listen to anything
...except the thoughts of disembowling the network admins and people who created the general 50kb/s limit!!!

kida · September 2003

that was so awesome! can't wait.

lolfighter · September 2003

Ah, finally a sequel. 'bout time. This better be good.

PanzerOx · September 2003

650 kb/s!!!!!!!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Javert · September 2003

Like DooM, I'm also waiting for the OMG trailer such as the glorious one they had for Max Payne 1. This one, not enough action and in-game stuff.
Oh, and there's a sex scene. Just thought I might wanted it to bring that up.

PanzerOx · September 2003

Wow, I was blown away by the graphics, D3, HL2, and DE2 have some competition!

CaLFiN · September 2003

I wasn't impressed with that. The people look so "stiff." Look at the screenshot section too, the people just don't look realistic at all. Also, the worlds still look like textures, with no real detail there.

Maybe that's just me though.

I don't see that happening.

Beast · September 2003

Looked kinda cool, I liked the orignal max payne, but I have since had to uninstall for space reasons... :/ oh well.

Should be looking forward to this <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Bosnian_Cowboy · September 2003

I get the feeling it will just be the original Max Payne with better graphics. They have said nothing about gameplay improvements.

BlackMage · September 2003

win

tankefugl · September 2003

Max Payne was a great piece of storytelling. I hope the sequell will live up to it.

Actually they've said its called that because it takes place in the Fall (as opposed to Max Payne 1 which took place in the Winter). :P

n4s7y · September 2003

<3 max payne 1. About the only FPS with a storyline that I liked (whee, no cheesy kill-the-aliens-that-you-brought-on crap). Now Max has a lady friend and has seen his doc about his constipation problem, what could be better ^_^!

I wish I could download the movie but as it stands, AP Bio is standing in my way.

Kenichi · September 2003

downloading it at 2.25mb/s i absolutely LOVE MY NETWORK! took only about 20 seconds to download. It was done before i could finish this post.

lilbadwolf · September 2003

Remember kids, the faster you download the bigger your **** is. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Teflon · September 2003

You think they could've showed off more of bullet time then some .5 second clip of Max. And the bullets flying at the screen look just like they did in MP1.

Supra_Soldier · September 2003

Dude, anyone notice how Max Payne looks totaly different? This game either takes place like 20 years later or they just didn't care too much about making him look the same... the graphics do looks pretty nice though, not bad at all, but cetainly not as nice as HL2, Doom III, or even S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Naaa, there still has to be Max Payne 3 so he will probably be near dying and assumed dead <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

And yes, it is t3h kick arsest game in its series. (Is arsest a word...well it is now <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>)

Actually I didn't find HL2 to be so impressive and I'm glad it isn't so maybe it will work on my comp too. I'd say graphically Doom3 > MP2 > HL2

Sir_Robin · September 2003

wth, they've changed the character, what happend to the guy's face?? has he been doing platixx?

CommunistWithAGun · September 2003

[/joke]Dude, how can you say you KNOW he will die. Same way you know in the grapes of wrath you already know its a rehash of attack of the killer tomatos, but with grapes DUH[/endjoke]
