Max Payne

You're thrust into a noir nightmare of slow-motion gunplay and moral ambiguity, moving through New York's frozen underworld with stylish precision as a desperate man fighting impossible odds. Every shot rings with consequence, every plot twist deepens your paranoia, and you're locked in an unrelenting race to clear your name before the city consumes you.

Max Payne is a man with nothing to lose in the violent, cold urban night. A fugitive undercover cop framed for murder, hunted by cops and the mob, Max is a man with his back against the wall, fighting a battle he cannot hope to win. Max Payne is a relentless story-driven game about a man on the edge, fighting to clear his name while struggling to uncover the truth about his slain family amongst a myriad of plot-twists and twisted thugs in the gritty bowels of New York during the century's worst blizzard. The groundbreaking original cinematic action-shooter, Max Payne introduced the concept of Bullet Time in videogames. Through its stylish slow-motion gunplay combined with a dark and twisted story, Max Payne redefined the action-shooter genre.
