Max Payne - Rockstar Games and Neo Software bring Remedy Entertainment's PC hit to the Xbox. The game was developed solely as a single-player adventure, as the designers at Finland's Remedy Entertainment focused on creating an experience that would make gamers care at least as much about the main character as they would about finish times or frag counts. Tried and true devices of pulp fiction and film noir are employed in this game, drawing the player into the dark story through gripping motivations of revenge and self-preservation.Technically, Max Payne offers its own brand of state-of-the-art graphics and sound. Detailed, high-resolution environments are deformable, as walls become riddled with bullet holes of various sizes and shreds of paper, plastic, plaster, and tile fall to the ground, each in their own distinctly realistic manners. Admittedly inspired by the cinematic works of John Woo and Sam Peckinpah, the game applies stylistic techniques borrowed from action films as well, not only to add to the mood of the story but also to enhance gameplay. The title's signature "bullet time" gunfights can be played out in slow motion to provide a familiar dramatic effect and also to allow the player a chance to better situate himself and pick out prime targets in the chaos of flying lead.

Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, and now hunted by cops and the mob, Max is a man with his back against the wall, fighting a big battle. Urban, revenge-drive action game based in New York City's grimy underground Features photo-digitized textures and cool lighting Realistic-looking game
