Max Payne 2: The Fall Of Max Payne

I just got this game yesterday and WHOA!

It's exactly like Max Payne but with a new story and a very polished new engine, I love it!

I just got killed by a falling cabinet too.

Anyone else playing this?

A falling cabinet? Beats burning to death, I guess...

Are there any more tripped-out drug levels?

BASTARDS!

Just one more week!

I can't wait for the kung-fu mod though

Actually there have been quite a few, and I'm still on chapter one.

Well, unless I can skip them like I could with my Russian version of Max Payne, I ain't gonna buy it.

What?! The bad-dream levels were fucking awesome! The crying baby, and the zoom thingy in the hallway...that was tits, man.

The dream levels are supposed to be a lot less annoying this time around.

What I didn't like about the dreams was that one maze where you could go in a loop forever (if you didn't find the correct path) and those crappy blood trails where you fell to your death. If they had just used it as story-telling and removed all the crappy platformer parts, they would have been cool.

The dream levels I've seen are normal levels with strange colours and stretchyness. No stupid little trails to tip-toe on.

Not exactly, realism is increased in the sense that you can no longer take on as many bad guys at the same time, 3 or so can pose a threat to you.

The shotguns and D. Eagles are underpowered I think also.

Other than that it's great.

The only thing i dont like about is that its to short. I beat the game in about 6 hours. Oh well I go play it again.

Actually, I can remember taking on a whole mess of guys in the Vodka nightclub the other day. Not three, I'm talking five or six. It's bound to get more difficult too.

As for the shotguns and desert eagles, that's true, they are. Unless you get a headshot.

I guess I should count myself lucky, I don't get much time to play and have only just reached part seven of chapter one.

Yup, a confirmed more than three bad-guy gunfight.

When I entered this room there was one guy in it, but six more immediately joined him. Screenshot below.

(By the way, one of the corpses is actually just off the left-side of the screen, I couldn't fit them, all in and didn't want to waste my ammo moving one.)
