Worth it in 2025?
So been really beating myself over the head deciding if i should get this or not. really hate doing posts such as this but i must! is multiplayer completely dead and is the story worth it?

Its mostly story driven game albeit short - rest are pointless achievements that are hard to get when multi isnt popular here anymore. People usually look for mutual help with these. About question... Sure its worth the time - especially when on sale its dirt cheap. Only remember that rockstars launcher can be problematic - theres a guide around here about disabling it.

Save your money. Game is bugged and doesn't save after some chapters. Mine stopped saving after chapter VII. I'm almost end of part ii, returned the main menu to do some other stuff, came back hit continue and bam it ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with chapter iv. I can see unlocked golden weapons of played but locked chapters. I lost all my appetite.
If you played Max Payne 1 and 2, you really should (if not, then GO play them). Yes, the story is really different and kind of an unnecessary sequel (2 was really the end)... but I think it's the perfect conclusion to Payne's character. Also, the gunplay is GOLD. Really, sometimes it's difficult for me to think that gta V came out a year later given THIS is so much better.

Yep sure have and awesome as long as it's connected with the other 2 i'm onboard. seen gameplays for it not sure why a lot were complaining about the gameplay style looks fine to me.

better than games this days
I think it's a very good game and I liked it as much as the originals.

Great Max Payne story and James McCaffrey (RIP) really took Max's voice-acting to another level in this one too.
Absolutely amazing game yeah, still replaying it regularly.

Currently replaying it for the 2nd or 3rd time in a few days, and I'm in for some multiplayer someday yeah.

Yeah and unless you forgot your Rockstar account's password it doesn't change anything per say, even then you can quickly recover it.

That Rockstar account requirement is really not an issue, people do be complaining for really dumb reasons...
Story wise it didnt really feel like the Max Payne i got to know from 1 and 2,
Having said that, the MP3 was a blast of a game, sometimes s a bit of an "on rails shooter"
And at the time of release it was one of the best looking games.
there are alot of mods on Nexusmods to give the game a more modern makeover.

Amazing game, kinda ruined on PC due to rockstar launcher

Yes i am replaying it right now.
Still one of the best third person action games ever made.
Cant wait for Max Payne 1+2 Remakes.

It's a great game, I've played both Max Payne 1 and 2 and this is up there, the gunplay is really good, no ADS but anyone who's played Max Payne is more about the Bullet Time, this also has cinematic kill cams, something the others didn't at least no that I remember.

It's very story driven, and has long cutscenes but they are well done and worth watching as they drive the narrative and build the suspense, needing the Rockstar launcher kinda sucks (always thought it should be optional for all games).

some of the keybinds are awkward as L-Ctrl is sprint, I'm used to L-Shift for sprinting in most games, and L-Ctrl being for crouch, this really only matters when your trying to run from grenades as using shift is muscle memory and it ends up getting me killed lol.

It's got a very John Wick feel to it!
