KBell Posted October 21, 2003 Author Posted October 21, 2003 By my estimate, it's about 7 1/2 hours long, so it's a pretty short game. But i just can't get over how great this gaming engine is. I can never get enough of watching baddies tumble to the ground, it's so graphical
Darth Rythe Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Why do you want the demo if the full version is out?
txa1265 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Originally posted by Darth Rythe Why do you want the demo if the full version is out? Why did so many people want the JA demo? Honestly, if the game is a sequel with similar gameplay, and you liked the original, it should be a no brainer. That is not why there are demos. Demos are for when you haven't played the original, IMO. Mike
Hellfire Jedi Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I'd like to try demo's before I buy. MP2 has no contest though, ifa demo comes out, im going to play it due to i loved the 1st game.
Crow_Nest Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Originally posted by Darth Rythe Why do you want the demo if the full version is out? Because, its not out in my country yet.
KBell Posted October 22, 2003 Author Posted October 22, 2003 Oh, and to answer your question Mamba, no demo has been released yet, but you could pick up the original Max Payne for $10, like i said, they're almost alike Read the entire thread before posting next time Crow.

RoguePhotonic Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 The bullet time in the first one was better...the bullets were gold looking and shiny...now they are black and you can't see them as good.

Darklighter Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 Got it yesterday...finally...haven't really stopped playing it since. 'Tis amazing, 'nuff said;) EDIT - At first, I was a little apprehensive about the size of the game...since people had been banging on about how short it was. Then I realised the reason for the limited length of the game. To anyone who's played the game: have you ever stopped and just looked at how detailed and intricate the level designs are? This includes level layouts, character models, scenery details, objects, and dialogue. I found myself stopping to listen to conversations for ages, watching TV episodes, etc. There is just so much detail in this game, and anyone who complains about the length of tha game obviously don't appreciate the amount of effort the Remedy team have put into the game. I was amazed. Just my two pence XD
KBell Posted October 26, 2003 Author Posted October 26, 2003 That's the spirit Darky ^_^ I'm going through it a second time and i just love listening to the conversations and mindless banter between the thugs that I had missed the first time going through. Can't wait till some of the gifted Modders out there make the Kung-Fu edition of MP2 *drools*
Mex Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 My computer won't be able to run this game till about Christmas time. Could anyone post some screenshots of the game? I want to see what it looks like since all the screens on the official site don't show the HUD and the enemies.
zynko Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 familar with the game Max Payne and all....and m eager for playing the second (after i play the first one) but, how did he get bullet time and that type of stuff? And what makes him fight those guys? Was his family killed or somthing?

Bullet time is just bullet time..it has nothing to do with the story...and yeah his wife and kid were murdered...first level of max payne 1.
KBell Posted October 27, 2003 Author Posted October 27, 2003 Yes Max's family is killed by a group of Druggies hoped up on Valkre, a very popular drug at the time. He joins the DEA and his world start collapsing on him. He doesn't really "Get " Bullet Time, rather he is fuled by so much anger and revenge that he is focused on living.
CapNColostomy Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 Max Payne 2: The most kickass game I have ever played. Hands down. Whoever mentioned the ragdoll physics being badass was dead on the money. And all the crap that you can knock over, or send a thug flying into... Anybody finished it yet? I think I'm close, but I'm saving the last of it for tomorrow after work.
RoguePhotonic Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I tried playing through it as the naked chick but it really doesn't work well to use other models.
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 Have u played the mission with Vinny Gognitti (sp?) in the baseball Bat Boy suit. It's hilarious
legameboy Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 Oh, when you go into his apartment, start shooting all his Captian Baseball bat Boy collectible stuffs, he'll start cussing you out.
KBell Posted November 2, 2003 Author Posted November 2, 2003 Vinny in his Baseball Bat Boy costume is hilarious. I mean, when he whobbles around making squeaking sounds, yelling at you to save his ass, and then he gets stuck in a door, hilarious
Lost Welshman Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 This game is awesome!!! Some bits aren't very serious which kinda made the mood Happier at times. Like the bit where you listen to the phone conversations that Max had on the recording thing. He he, that was awesome. And the Baseball Bat Boy part The Physics are awesome I love the new bullet time thing. Where it slows down even more when you kill more people. It makes it more... fun. The Ability to slide across the floor to a halt while shooting, is awesome. I love this game! I can't wait for the mod makers to get to work on a kung fu mod. Should Prove interesting with the rag doll effect. It would be awesome Post Statistics: Unnessesary Capitals: 4 Awesome Count: 6 Sexual References: 0 Smileys Used: 3 How Many e's Used: 62
CapNColostomy Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I did the Vinnie mission today before work, and I'm at the manor looking for the panic room as I type this. This game is great!
CapNColostomy Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Well, I just beat it. I loved it. Gonna play it again. Maybe even dust off the original and beat it again. I can't wait for the 3rd. Anybody got the two official new missions for Dead Man Walking mode and played them yet? I think I'll have a go at those tomorrow.
