Max Payne 3 QuickLook

#1 Posted by Paindamnation (655 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Did it just get pulled down? The darn PAX East video is now number 1 slot in quick looks. Man I was looking forward to this today.

Just keep F5ing, man. That will fix everything.

#3 Posted by Jimi (1117 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I didn't ever see it go up :(

#4 Posted by Space_Sandwich (95 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Glad to see I'm not the only one constantly refreshing here... IT'S MADDENING!

It's right there. Hidden away, never to be released.

Probably won't see it until tomorrow.

Dammit, that link just redirects me to the 'video' main page.

EVERYONE START FREAKING OUT.

#8 Posted by Ghostiet (4759 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Probably some embargo until exactly tomorrow. I know it was in the queue, but maybe they simply preloaded it to the site.

#9 Posted by EdBalls (713 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I was really looking forward to this.

I thought something was amiss this morning.

#11 Posted by notlupus (29 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I thought the review/video release embargo was until 12PM Eastern Time today.

#12 Posted by Fourman (12 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I am freaking the fuck out right now man.

That's what it does, until it's unlocked. Time Trotters was 17-5972 and 17-5973 just 404s, it was quick-looked and uploaded on Friday.

Either their automated process messed up or Rockstar doesn't want them to release any footage until tomorrow.

IGN just gave it a 9.0 by the way

#15 Posted by BrockNRolla (1698 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Sigh... another missed deadline.

Sometimes I wish they just wouldn't bother putting that stuff into the schedule.

#16 Posted by RampageAssassin (416 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I really hope it's not filled with spoilers and they show off some multiplayer.

AaaahhhhhH!

#18 Posted by Winternet (7350 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

But, I cancelled every appointment so I could be looking into my computer monitor right now.

#20 Posted by Venatio (4425 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Was looking forward to it all day, kinda want to know more about that game, bummer that it was a no show

Oh well, hope it pops up soonish

#21 Posted by LevelUpAdrian (130 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I dunno about embargo - we got a copy yesterday with no embargo and as of midnight Aus time (2 hours ago) it's being sold in 24-hour stores. Had midnight launches gone off for the game, it would've been sold too.

Yeah, not sure what happened with it, but I don't think it was because of an embargo.

The "Coming Up On Giant Bomb" section is seldom ever even close to accurate, yet I always manage to let it get my hopes up then promptly dash them. I don't know why I keep falling for it...

"Wow, really interested to see Max Payne 3 in action"

*Makes dinner and gets ready to consume food and Quick Look simultaneously*

"Wow, this is going to be good"

*Presses F5, realizes there is no Quick Look and that it is gone from upcoming section*

#26 Posted by MachoFantastico (3694 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Interested to see more, it was either Max Payne or Diablo 3 and I went with Diablo 3. Don't really have the passion like many do for the Max Payne franchise, that said it still looks fantastic and will surely pick it up at one point.

Though I don't really have a great history with Diablo either :D

@Grissefar: lol exactly the same thing happened over here.

#29 Posted by DJJoeJoe (1122 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Wanted to check it out before I have to work, woke up a bit early because of it. First time I've ever done that for a quick look.

#30 Posted by Sheetsy77 (185 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Interesting... Man, I wanted this today cause tomorrow unless they upload it at 9am before my order comes in I won't watch until later that day cause I'LL BE PLAYING IT!!

#31 Posted by Paindamnation (655 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Ugh. That darn Pax East thing is everywhere now. It's EVEN in the Quick Looks section.Can't escape it! BTW The URL would be http://www.giantbomb.com/max-payne-3/17-5973/

#32 Posted by EdBalls (713 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Arthur Gies, of Polygon games, gave it a 9. http://www.theverge.com/gaming/2012/5/14/3018219/max-payne-3-review

Nice! I see other duders like to enjoy their QLs with a bit of food too!

C´mon bring on Max Payne 3! I´ve waited too long to finally see it in action.

#34 Posted by Chop (1717 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Damn. I hope it gets put up before I go to work. The quicklook was how I was gonna decide if I wanted to grab it tomorrow or not.

#36 Posted by hardindr (165 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Maybe the uploader is broken? It happens... Reviews are up everywhere else.

No it's not, it's 17-5971. It was already quick-looked and uploaded on Friday. 5973 404s. Jar Time was 5970, Time Trotters was 5972, 5971 is without a doubt Max Payne 3.

Looks like its doing pretty well. http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/max-payne-3

#39 Posted by MJHAYLETT (366 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

something went 'ping' no doubt but I am sure they are hard at work fixing it. So far I have seen a 7.6, 8.0 and a 9.0 for Max Payne 3 so its safe to assume its a good game if you like that kind of game. Happy Days for you :D

Change the number to 5973, their system goes by the number in which it was uploaded Time Trotters was 5972, So if it follows conjuncture it should be 5973. Just a guess.

#42 Posted by BasketSnake (872 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Such a long wait for just a quick look.

#43 Posted by MachoFantastico (3694 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

Gametrailers didn't think to highly of it apparently, 7.6. That said I stopped caring what they thought as most of their reviews are a joke to me.

Whatever it is. IT'S NOT UP NOW. Unfortunately.

Know it's not the right place right time, but any know when Diablo 3 reviews hit?

#47 Posted by Winternet (7350 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

@Paindamnation: The order of which vids appear on the site may not be the same as they get uploaded to the system. 5971 is still missing which leads me to believe it's MP3.

@Fredddi43: It doesn't top the combo Endurance Run + Dinner

#48 Posted by Syndrom (253 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

lol 7.6, i call bullshit

#49 Edited by JMatrix (348 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

My mind shattered, as I went through a list of comments after comments, not a single one of them trying to mimic Max Payne's inner monologue...then I myself realized, that I don't really have the skills to pull it off either, so I let go of my post reply dreams, like I let go of my gun and released my finger from the trigger...then I went to get my coat...

#50 Posted by Yummylee (18161 posts) - 1 year, 10 days ago

I think Ryan's in the middle of reviewing Max Payne 3 at least, judging by the screenshots he's uploading.

Max Payne 3

The long awaited third Max Payne game finally arrived in May 2012, courtesy of a new developer for the series, Rockstar Vancouver. Set eight years after the conclusion of Max Payne 2, an aging Max Payne faces one final chance to redeem himself.
