Max Payne 3 gameplay emerges

Watch Max Payne kick some serious butt in the first of many gameplay videos.

Saying I’m excited about Max Payne would be a serious understatement. Ever since the Fall of Max Payne, I’ve patiently been waiting for Rockstar to churn out another Max Payne game. While my prayers will be answered by March 2012, the game’s release date, you can check out Payne in action for the very first time in a video feature of sorts released by Rockstar.

Kicking butt in style since 2001

This one is the first of five parts and highlights the game’s combat system, its physics engine as well as the use of bullet time. Mere words cannot describe how satisfying and refined gunplay now looks, which is why I’ll shut up and let the video do all the talking.

Oh and if you’re a fan of the franchise, stay tuned to Tech2 for a very special Max Payne 3 surprise in the near future.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
