Max Payne’s home has always been on the PC. Now you’ve got
games torrents
– The original 2001 game and its sequel debuted on the PC, and though
they received console versions–some of which captured the excellence of
their PC counterparts and some of which didn’t–it was on PC that he
first made his mark. Times have changed for Max, and his latest outing
hit consoles first and PC second, which may raise concerns about
whether, this time around, it’s the PC version that feels secondary and
the console versions that feel definitive. As it turns out, such
concerns are unfounded. Max Payne 3 is just as gorgeous and intense on
PC as it is on consoles, and the pinpoint precision offered by a mouse
makes the PC version the best way to enjoy this brutal and haunting
shooter.
Wherever you go, there you are. It’s a truth Max Payne knows better
than anyone. Fleeing his New York life to take a job working security
for a wealthy family in Sao Paulo, the hard-drinkin’, pill-poppin’ Max
finds that his demons come along for the ride. Though the details of the
plot add up to your typical story of conspiracy and corruption, of the
rich and powerful preying on the poor and helpless to become even more
rich and powerful, the writing, acting, and presentation elevate this
tale well above a boilerplate video game crime story
.
