Burn up Junkies!!!

I've played it on the PC, and now on the X-Box...sure it's missing some stuff that's on the PC, but still, it's a GREAT game no matter what. The controls are a little funny at first,but you get the hang of it in no time. Rockstar is making great games for adults, and it's about time we get games without importing them and paying rididulous prices. This game is a MUST!
Now I wait for State of Emergency, and Grand Theft Auto to come out on XBOX later this year.

Oh yeah...If there were more junkies in the game to blow up,shoot,or burn...it would've been perfect!!!

OK at best

Clearly a cheap PC-to-Xbox conversion that fails to leverage the power of the Xbox platform. The comic-book style story interruptions may appeal to comic-book geeks, but are just plain annoying if you want fast paced action. The hyperbolic NYPD and mafia stereotypes are funny at first, but they get old. The story line feels super contrived and not that compelling. Max himself eventually gets tedious. I quickly developed a huge arsenal and had little trouble wiping out all opponents so the challenge factor seemed lacking. Like I said, the game is OK at best, but get Halo first.

Strange, Matrix-like, Fun

I love how its all strange talk like, you really feel like your in trouble with the cops. The matrix-like feel (slow motion) makes the game different then every other first person shooter.

its a buy

I'm glad I rented this game, because I beat this game in 1 day, and it left me without the desire to play it again. This game is to easy to beat, not a very well written game, cut scenes are VERY corny and unreal. There needs to be more characters to work with. Overall I did enjoy this game for the one day I played it, but I would not buy this. Try renting it first. Graphics are very good however.

Awesome Game!!!

This is a great game. Its not just your regular run-of-the-mill 3rd person shooter. What makes it unique is "Bullet Time" which slows the action down for a limited time and you can use it to dodge bullets and shoot the bad guys - Matrix style. Very enjoyable. Did not give it 5 stars because I have played only for about 8 hours and I am pretty close to being done. Should take another 2 hours or so. I like my games to last a lot longer than that. But the 10 hours of gameplay that this game does give you kicks ... Buy this game right now!!

Max Payne is a definate game that you must get if you have an Xbox. The graphics in this game are better than most games I've seen. When I first got Xbox I got Halo also. I thought it was the best game I've ever played. Then I kept hearing things about the videogame Max Payne. I went online and I found out what the videogame was about . When I got it I couldn't stop playing it. I'm now very far into the game and I have almost beat it. It is much better than Halo in my opinion(I already beat Halo)Anyone that gives it less than four stars is crazy.

Max Payne rivals Halo

If you like Halo then you will like Max Payne. Much differet game in terms of scenario, but wow, more exciting. it is also very violent, which is OK wil me. If you are buying this game for a child then you may want to think again.

Just one funk-up

The only thing I would have changed if I was the game producer would have to be hunting down the baby and mothers voice. The halls never ended and the hole level ended up being a pain ... ..
