Review: Max Payne 3 for Mac
Editor’s Note: The following article is reprinted from Macworld UK. Visit Macworld UK’s blog page for the latest Mac news from across the Atlantic.
It’s been a few years since the Max Payne games became available on the Mac, so here’s a quick recap. Max is a former undercover cop whose family were killed by mobsters, leaving him with a seriously broody demeanour, a fondness for booze and pain-killers, and a habit of pumping bullets into bad guys in blood-spattered up-close slow-motion.
In Max Payne 3 (Mac App Store link), Max is now working as a bodyguard for the wealthy Branco family in Brazil, a job that quickly finds him drawn into a web of corruption and conspiracy that can only be resolved by shooting lots of bad guys in blood-spattered up-close slow-motion.
In other words, Max Payne 3 is a very violent and bloody game, and one that should definitely be kept away from the kids. It is, however, very stylish and well told, and will certainly appeal to fans of filmmaker Quentin Tarantino.
