    Nice vid. Really starting to get excited for this now. :)

    Anyone know, is it the same voice actor doing Max as in 2? Maybe it's just because a lot of time has passed but going by the above video he doesn't have the same gravelly nature as in the other games....

    Yeah there was an entire section of the video where James McCaffrey was interviewed.

    Just started playing through the original last night and it still holds up pretty well. Will try get through 1 and 2 before I get my hands on 3 but with Diablo out in a few days that's probably not going to happen for awhile.

    Thats a great vid on GTTV. When MP 3 was first announced, I wrote it off as I thought it lost it's noir but thats after convincing me of otherwise. Class how the drugs and drink affect you during gameplay.

    Just 2 more weeks.

    Jeronimo Barrera also has some awesome tattoos. So that sells it for me. :pac: Actually a fairly logical progress to add drug problems given the amount of painkillers that he's taken over the years. :pac:

    A few multiplayer questions answered here:

    http://kotaku.com/5907699/how-multiplayer-bullet-time-works-in-max-payne-3
    Holy crap on a pointy stick, that looks sh|t beyond belief! So if someone goes bullet time, the entire game slows down? Jebus; you won't know if it's lag, hacks, or bullet time. Or all three.

    =-=

    Will probably get it for the single player, but can't see myself playing the multiplayer.

    @ the_syco, if u activate bullet time, only people in your line of sight goes into bt as well, sounds strange, interested to see how it works.

    I'd compare Bullet Time to a FlashBang in CS:S. An unexpected, uncontrollable hindrance that there is a very short list of things you can do to counter it. But a huge tactical advantage for the user and hopefully only used very rarely.

    A rechargeable flashbang, it would seem...

    Kotaku released a vid with a detailed explanation of how bullet time is going to work. I'm actually looking forward to trying this in MP.

    This is brilliant!! Crews are now live on the Rockstar website. I created a Boards.ie crew (not sure how it knows what console you have or if xbox and ps3 users can be in the same crew)

    Anyway, go to the link below and request to join it, I can't seem to send out invites.

    http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/boards-ie

    The crew name is Boards-ie

    I will work on the emblem and make it a bit better but it's a start. For joining a crew before the game is out, we will have Founder Crew status and get unlocks for it. Details from Rockstar below.

    http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/33861/crew-up-register-and-rally-your-crew-now-at-the-allnew-social-cl.html

    These crews will also carry over to GTA V.

    jez009 and aidanr have been added, not sure who ye are on boards, but I think you have to accept the invites I sent.

    If any of ye have friends who are gonna get MP 3, tell em to send me a request as well.

    EDIT: Oh ya, Rockstar's 1st MP3 online event is Friday 18th from 9pm to Midnight. I'll definitely jump on to see what thats like.

    my crew is 6 man deep so far :pac: you should join on. Anyone know how it works if you are in multiple crews?

    http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/boards-ie

    The classic character preorder pack details are below. I would only want that to play as Max sowon't be shelling out extra for it. And even at that, I'd prefer to play as 2d face Max from MP 1

    Kinda disappointed this is out next week, not going to get near it with Diablo3 out the same week.

    Although I have absolutely no interest in the multiplayer so waiting and picking it up cheaper down the line won't be a bad thing!!

    Won't get it next week, but will definitely pick it up the following week. Can't wait to play it, and that launch trailer makes it feel more like Max is back.

    And i love that music.

    Oh ya, really recommend reading the Max Payne comic. Gives a nice background for max and about his parents. Looks like the 2nd comic will be about what drives him to leave New York.
