    Max Payne 3

    Game » consists of 12 releases. Released May 15, 2012

    The long-awaited third Max Payne game finally arrived in May 2012, courtesy of Rockstar Vancouver. Eight years after the end of Max Payne 2, an aging, burnt-out Max finds one last chance to redeem himself while working as a bodyguard for a rich family in Brazil.

    Game Informer's new cover story is none other than Max Payne 3. And his look is quite different. Check it out.

    I am getting a Jeff Bridges-Obidiah Stane/Iron Man vibe from this look. What about you?

    Looks nothing like Max Payne :/ but...I mean a decade after...maybe time does that to you?

    Also apparently the game takes place in Brazil.

    at the Max Payne website, there is one wallpaper, and it's this bald bearded dude, so either he's a really important villain or Max Payne needs to wear a hat when outside for more than half an hour.

    Worst. Concept design. Ever.

    Just because he doesn't have the jacket doesn't mean he isn't Max.  Personally, the CHARCTER of Max is more important to me than his apparel.

    I'm a huge fan of the Max Payne games and I was really worried with Rockstar taking over the reigns, but this looks pretty awesome.  It seems  fresh to see a middle aged character.  It's ballsy and it sounds right.  Why would Max really stick around NY after Max Payne 2?  The game is his fall, and afterward there's nothing for him.

    I'm still  a little worried, but this is convincing and interesting to me.  Cautiously optimistic.

    Yeah. Didn't they reveal this as the new Max a few months ago?

    EDIT: @Ineedaname: Yeah because you totally shoot up crack to get high on it... oh wait. You actually can't do that.
    Pain killers on the other hand... quite a different story.
