Cool fact about the pianos, each time you play one he plays the theme better until the final one in which he plays the game's theme without messing up, very cool detail
One of my most played favorites of all time. RIP James McCaffrey, MP3 wouldn’t be so iconic without his voice and the amazing motion capture performance that added so much heavy weight to the movements of an older Max. Such a great time that still holds up today. My only gripe-everyone has it - no unstoppable cutscenes, but at least there’s New York minute
I like how Rockstar implements ideas created in one game to other titles. From Max Payne 3, the bullet time ability was directly ported over for Micheal's ability in GTA5. In RDR2, they added cinematic killcams originally implemented in Max Payne 3, and from the gameplay footage you showed, I also sense that the trolley mission in RDR2 was heavily inspired by a mission from Max Payne 3. Inspecting notes up-close with the ability to flip sides in RDR2 is something taken from LA Noire. Hence, it's exciting to see the culmination of different game mechanics across different Rockstar titles that will be present in GTA6.
This is one of a small handful of games that get replayed often and are immune to time. Every time i play it I get inspired to learn the theme tune on piano/keyboard.
I'm looking forward to you doing Max Payne 1 and 2! I think a lot of the things you picked as random or not ground breaking are a base part of Max Payne going back to 1, so it puts some of that in a broader context. Like how Max Payne 1 was the second game (and 1st hit game) to implement bullet time.
God this series really deserves some kind of remaster at least on a graphical sense because honestly you can't really catch the same lightning twice with this. Always funny whenever you were able to dive back onto a pool deck chair on the yacht that's a great incredible difficulty to get there to begin with along with simply getting Max into his own bed
I feel like, when it comes to video game graphics, with each passing generation, the best of the best age slower and slower. With the only exception being the 5th generation which was a bit of a reset due to the jump to 3D. The best-looking games from the PS3 era look a lot better nowadays than PS1 games did during said PS3 generation. E.g. Metal Gear Solid 1 was 11 years old when Uncharted 2 came out but Uncharted 2 holds up far better graphically today, 15 years later, than MGS1 did in 2009.
Max Payne 3 is one of my favourite games of all time! I was so sad when I found out James McCaffery passed away, and it still don't seem real 😢 He will forever live on as the one of the greatest Video Game characters ever!
Im the same way i never played the originals and just played the 3rd one for the first time 12 years after its release, it was one of the best games ive ever played
Delighted to see a video on this, Fizhy. I played through Max Payne 3 only once but it really stuck with me as an all-time favourite, for its style, gameplay and James McCaffrey's immense performance. Hope you cover the first two games as well - more needs to be said on how Bullet Time set the stage for the likes of Dead Eye in the years that followed.
My day was ruined when James McCaffrey died, such an iconic voice. It's sad that we won't hear him again. I think that his voice alone made those games iconic. I wonder if he managed to record all his lines to the upcoming remake. You definitely should play MP and MP2, they still look incredibly well for the time they came out. I played them for the first time in 2018 as I was too young to play when they were released but still it didn't make me feel they are very dated or hard to play. The graphics are still nice, the gameplay is fun as hell and Max's face in the first game is just legendary 😅
I still play this game along with K&L Dog Days, The Punisher, Resistance, Killzone, Infamous and a few other "none like it" choices of past generations.
I just bought a ps3 for my 28th birthday last weekend and I got this game (along with a few other bangers) and I’m so excited to play it again. Haven’t played this game in a decade. Can’t believe how great it still looks! But it is a rockstar game so that doesn’t surprise me
I love MP3 but i never liked how they changed the weapon limit. I get they wanted it to be more realistic but I loved walking around with an armory in my coat in the first 2 games. Gave you more combat options for different scenarios.
Max Payne 1 through 3 are incredible works of art. 3 is still the pinnacle of third-person shooter mechanics, animations, and ragdoll physics in my opinion. Rest in peace, James McCaffrey. He lives on forever as Max Payne and as a good man.
I recently went back and played this game and idk what it is but for some reason i can see why this was a huge development nightmare for Rockstar. Their goal of taking the Triple AAA quality theyre Reknown for when it comes to their Open World Titles and streamlining it into a Third Person Shooter is seen with the Destruction in the Branco Headquarters Shootout. The attention to Detail when it comes to the Glass shattering/Cover being Destroyed and walls being Destroyed is pretty damn good. For someone reason though i feel like they shot their Wad in that moment and failed to recapture the magic after that. If i could make a Wish for GTA 6,it would be to have the Shoot Dodge Mechanics from Max Payne 3 return in the Single player mode
Life-changing game for me, I expected all games to have the same great shooting mechanics and I've been disappointed, nothing better than Max Payne 3 on PC with bullet time and shoot/dodge
I played Max Payne (1) so much I got repetative strain injury on my wrist using bullet time. I got hooked on pain killers so the other two were a blurry god forsaken haze.
Yeah! I cant wait for the next "x game: x years later..." type of video as it reminds everyone that Time is a jerk and we will all die and be forgotten anyway along with our games. 🎉🎉
I know this really isn’t the video for it but on red dead redemption 2 on the last mission some of the bodies you shoot look like characters in the game if that makes sense? I saw someone that looked exactly like Dutch Micah and someone that even looked like an older Jack Marston, maybe consider checking it out, there isn’t a lot there but maybe it’s some strange cult they had in there gang or something.
Higly suggest anyone who wants to play this game, play it on pc with mouse and keyboard it fits better with the run and gun gameplay. It also looks better. Very enjoyable on the highest difficulties too
Yeeee max payne 3 is Allgood aye. I didn't manage to complete it but i really liked it for what i got to play. I liked shooting weapons out of people's hands
The first two games are pretty dated, but good nonetheless. I'd watch you do a playthrough. Great job on the video, makes me want to replay them all. I'd love it if Rockstar would remaster the first two games, hopefully not like the GTA trilogy...
Bro, go play Max Payne 1&2. Now. And this game was definitely a life changing experience for me. All the Max Payne games changed my whole perspective on what a game should be.
best game ever.... iam gamer of the first days... istarted with sega master system ans mega drive... and in all these years toll now...il never played a game thats nearly soo catching... till today i play max payne again and again ,evertime i find new styles for headshots etc ..that i not see before or elsewhere...i love this storytelling mood. ok some cutscens to long but all elemts in mp3 are so nice put togehter...i cant await the remakes....and i pray for all maxpayne fans dont disapoint us! technicel changes in while of new engine is ok but dont change the storytelling . if iam back in heaven...i must find a way to have a game of mp3 there...😅🤣
I remember playing this game when it first launched and seeing this video you have put together is shocking to me how well this game looks! It almost looks better than gtav! Although I’m guessing they kinda were developed at the same time so makes sense. I really hope they make a new one someday
RIP James Mccaffrey. One of the most iconic voices in video games.
Cool fact about the pianos, each time you play one he plays the theme better until the final one in which he plays the game's theme without messing up, very cool detail
This game got me into the band HEALTH. loved this game and HEALTH is so damn good!
Premium Agony 3
Please try the multiplayer, its so fun and still people play it.
You're lying the servers are have been down since 2021 @@Tom-zw9jr
Minimum Ouchie 3
I just beat all 3 Max Payne games. They are pretty good.
Peak grief 3
I fucking love this game. It still holds up. Would love to see a remaster
They are currently remaking Max Payne 1 & 2!
Rockstars ragdolls and gunplay peaked in the 360 era
They heavily downgraded it in gta 5. They are a little better in RDR 2, but still nowhere near Max Paybe 3.
"Richard Ache" is up there as an all time Fizhy joke 😂😂
Bide your time
Aka… Dick Ache
Ye have yet to play Max Payne 1 and 2? Heresy!!!! One-thousand lashings for ye Fizhy. Stay golden fam.
I'll get round to it
One of my most played favorites of all time. RIP James McCaffrey, MP3 wouldn’t be so iconic without his voice and the amazing motion capture performance that added so much heavy weight to the movements of an older Max.

You did know that Max Payne 1 was the first game to include bullet time, right ?
And Remedy Entertainment was the studio behind max payne 1+2
Obviously Max is suffering from Lumbago.
This is one of a small handful of games that get replayed often and are immune to time. Every time i play it I get inspired to learn the theme tune on piano/keyboard.
Max payne 3 is my most replayed game. It feels like putting on a good movie
At least once a year i get an itch to replay Max Payne 3. Needless to say i love this game so much.
Incredible video as always boss
Thank you kindly Mr Boi
I play this game every few years. Great game
This game looks like a archer episode
Still worth it. Just like the other 2 games.
It still looks great graphically. I wish the online was still up
I'm looking forward to you doing Max Payne 1 and 2!

Search it up. There working on max payne 1 and 2 remasteres most likely just graphical because James mcaffey is dead
Why doesn't this have more views? Eh, another banger Fizhy, nice to see Max Payne being brought up again after Mccaffrey's death
I just finished my first play through I was so hooked within the first couple seconds of playing
Just started playing this masterpiece on my Rog Ally and I must say it looks amazing for a 12 year old game
I was just thinking of playing this on my Rog too
This is one of those games that will hold up forever

Micheal from gta 5 is literally max payne
I'm playing it for the first time ever right now and it's brilliant !!
Max Payne 3 is one of my favourite games of all time! I was so sad when I found out James McCaffery passed away, and it still don't seem real 😢 He will forever live on as the one of the greatest Video Game characters ever!
Harmful Harold killed me mate, Ngl the name changing constantly was my favourite comedic bit 😂
The music is amazing! It’s one of the reasons I keep replaying it.
Im the same way i never played the originals and just played the 3rd one for the first time 12 years after its release, it was one of the best games ive ever played

Love max Payne ! Waiting patiently on the remastered version of 1&2
MP3 was, and still is awesome. R* done the series proud!
Dude I just replayed this !! So good !
I like to think Max Payne is Arthur Morgan’s great great great grandson. 😂
Just started playing MP3 for 1st time and my gawd where was the critical acclaim cause the action is so cinematic
I am proud to say I have completed the achievement “The shadows rushed me”
My day was ruined when James McCaffrey died, such an iconic voice. It's sad that we won't hear him again. I think that his voice alone made those games iconic.

i definitely feel max payne 3 is the best 3rd person shooter ever made. Such an underrated game.
If you upload max payne 1 and 2 content I'll definitely watch. Those are classic.
This is crazy I just beat the game a couple weeks ago it’s a beautiful game one of my favorites
200% agree about the game. My point is the edit.. the last bit.. awesome!
I still play this game along with K&L Dog Days, The Punisher, Resistance, Killzone, Infamous and a few other "none like it" choices of past generations.
The only game by rockstar from that time that i didn’t get to play
I just bought a ps3 for my 28th birthday last weekend and I got this game (along with a few other bangers) and I’m so excited to play it again. Haven’t played this game in a decade. Can’t believe how great it still looks! But it is a rockstar game so that doesn’t surprise me
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided + Max Payne 3 = Same vibes, different generation
My all time favorite game. I play through it once every year.
Crazy thing I’ve never played the first two max payne games either, but I gotta get to it
One of the best TPS gamss of all time.
I love MP3 but i never liked how they changed the weapon limit. I get they wanted it to be more realistic but I loved walking around with an armory in my coat in the first 2 games. Gave you more combat options for different scenarios.
Max Payne 1 and 2, just do it! Made me childhood.
Yes sir
Keep up the bangers, man! Love ya content and style.
Cool video as always mate !
2012 is 12 years old.. god I feel like a fossil.
Max Payne 1 through 3 are incredible works of art. 3 is still the pinnacle of third-person shooter mechanics, animations, and ragdoll physics in my opinion. Rest in peace, James McCaffrey. He lives on forever as Max Payne and as a good man.
😢
Rockstar's deadeye came waaay after max payne bullet time.
You should definitely try the first two games, great stories and gameplay
I recently went back and played this game and idk what it is but for some reason i can see why this was a huge development nightmare for Rockstar.

If i could make a Wish for GTA 6,it would be to have the Shoot Dodge Mechanics from Max Payne 3 return in the Single player mode
you can keep shooting in the slow mo final kill cam for extra points in the arcade mode!
One of the best shooters ever
the only game where I don't feel guilty for wasting ammo on shooting one enemy, especially with the gore mod.
Life-changing game for me, I expected all games to have the same great shooting mechanics and I've been disappointed, nothing better than Max Payne 3 on PC with bullet time and shoot/dodge
0:43 you have got the swag
Story goes, the authorities are still after him…
I played Max Payne (1) so much I got repetative strain injury on my wrist using bullet time. I got hooked on pain killers so the other two were a blurry god forsaken haze.
Free aim on the hardest mode is fun but rage inducing
I love Max Payne 3
Max pyne 3 is available for ps5 or only for PC?
Yeah! I cant wait for the next "x game: x years later..." type of video as it reminds everyone that Time is a jerk and we will all die and be forgotten anyway along with our games. 🎉🎉
Loved the multiplayer. Smacking people in the face as the blindly run around a corner that your using as cover was so satisfying.
great video. yeah love this game. wish more people play it. hope the remakes are good. yeah great soundtrack too
I know this really isn’t the video for it but on red dead redemption 2 on the last mission some of the bodies you shoot look like characters in the game if that makes sense?
I saw someone that looked exactly like Dutch Micah and someone that even looked like an older Jack Marston, maybe consider checking it out, there isn’t a lot there but maybe it’s some strange cult they had in there gang or something.
Hopefully it can get ported over like they did rdr1
I really want to replay this game
Low pleasure 3
Higly suggest anyone who wants to play this game, play it on pc with mouse and keyboard it fits better with the run and gun gameplay. It also looks better. Very enjoyable on the highest difficulties too
Your a little harsh on a 2012 graphics shoot em up game and I think the graphics and gameplay and story looks good, a lil bit of GTA vibes too.
I've always loved max Payne I personally think max Payne 3 was the best and it gave closer to max's story
This was my first max payne game to but really enjoyed it great game
Wearing loose socks to bed = best possible sleep quality 🔴🟢
Yeeee max payne 3 is Allgood aye. I didn't manage to complete it but i really liked it for what i got to play. I liked shooting weapons out of people's hands
bro why u wearing socks to bed
Happy late Birthday 🥳 Fizhy.
You're 2 months early.
Doesn't that apply to literally everyone? 😭😭 lol
Max Payne 2 was an amazing game. Fighting through apartment buildings with dual pistols and a black suit was cool asf bahahaha
Max Payne, magicly got Lumbago 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The first two games are pretty dated, but good nonetheless. I'd watch you do a playthrough. Great job on the video, makes me want to replay them all.
I'd love it if Rockstar would remaster the first two games, hopefully not like the GTA trilogy...
Cheers mate
I’m fucking happy u did this. I replayed all 3 games recently and my god they are all amazing
Funny thing is I just bought this game last week and I’m in chapter 6 😂
Bro, go play Max Payne 1&2. Now. And this game was definitely a life changing experience for me. All the Max Payne games changed my whole perspective on what a game should be.
Really hurt three.
Max payne is alan wakes john mclane
Terrence trauma 3 lmfao
a mate and I sat and listed about 30 different alternate names for Max Payne
@@Fizhy thoroughly enjoyed your review of Oscar Over-exertion 3
Can I play max Payne 3 on ps5?
I think you were fair but I'd like to see you play Max Pyne 1 & 2
I'll get round to it for sure
For a second I thought it seid mad max
Try the first person mod
best game ever.... iam gamer of the first days... istarted with sega master system ans mega drive... and in all these years toll now...il never played a game thats nearly soo catching... till today i play max payne again and again ,evertime i find new styles for headshots etc ..that i not see before or elsewhere...i love this storytelling mood. ok some cutscens to long but all elemts in mp3 are so nice put togehter...i cant await the remakes....and i pray for all maxpayne fans dont disapoint us! technicel changes in while of new engine is ok but dont change the storytelling . if iam back in heaven...i must find a way to have a game of mp3 there...😅🤣
you have missed so much if you have not played MP1 or MP2 i still own collectors edition of max payne 1
you need to use mods to make those old games to work on modern pcs
I wish the PS5 would play PS3 games. I would replay this and the Splinter Cell HD Collection.
I remember playing this game when it first launched and seeing this video you have put together is shocking to me how well this game looks! It almost looks better than gtav! Although I’m guessing they kinda were developed at the same time so makes sense. I really hope they make a new one someday
