This is going to have multi-player? It seems like it's tacked on to everything these days. Max Payne isn't really a game that lends itself to multi-player, is it?

Neither is Mass Effect, but companies need to add it in so that the Call of Duty idiots will have a better chance of buying the game.

Yeah I'd wish they'd stop to be honest. Games really need to be either Sp or mp only, 1 always gets neglected to shoe the other in. Personally I couldn't care less if there was never again a multiplayer game but that's just me, I enjoy my experience of a game on my own.

Animation is very good, though the aiming looks a bit weird.

Looks excellent though.

Temptamperu · 01-12-2011, 17:04

Looks good but i bet they try and sqeeze in multiplayer where its not needed

**wnolan1992** · 03-12-2011, 11:34

Anyone know if there's an Irish site that'll let me pre-order the Special Ed? Gamestop.ie only have the Standard Ed. Found it on game.co.uk , but I only have a laser card and I doubt they'll accept that.

**wnolan1992** · 14-01-2012, 00:49

Has anyone ordered the special ed from Play.com? I'm trying to do it now and it says it can only be delivered to a UK address, even though it's priced in euros, which they say can only be delivered to an address outside the UK....

I don't see how it would work with MP, without the slowmo it's just another shooter and I don't see how they could implement slowmo in multiplayer.

or the developers could stop being lazy or rushed by the publisher and do a decent job of both mp and sp

Problem is, to do mp and sp both to a high standard, games would take longer to develop. Or would need a lot more staff working on it, which would cost money that a lot of developers just don't have at the moment. So it's a case of get sp done to the standard you want, slap in some mp and ship the thing.(or do the mp and slap in some sp in CoD's case

)

the so called call of duty idiots:rolleyes:wont buy a game for sh1te MP.

Maxpayne was always about the SP game so cant imagine the MP being too well developed

EDIT just seen wnolan post above mine and he's hit the nail on the head

LH Pathe · 16-01-2012, 23:49

New max payne is lookin tasty. particularly the most un-payne look / locations everyone was annoyed about but far as the mp side goes don't need it; not played mp since the noughties when it was all the rage. but now repetitive arenas grate I want a sense of adventure not home ffs .. lot of big titles on the horizon
