    Max Payne Description
    Unsuitable for persons under 15
    Three years ago a young NYPD cop, Max Payne, came home one night to find his family senselessly slaughtered by a gang of drug-crazed junkies high on a previously unknown synthetic drug.

    Now that same drug, Valkyr, has spread through the whole New York City like a nightmare plague, and Max Payne's on a crusade for revenge, out to get even.

    The drug hit the city like a bad dream, turning it into a hell on earth. More corpses lie in the streets than there are demons in the real thing, and hordes of Valkyr-head junkies are on an insane killing spree, their eyes burning with mad green fire.

    To the Drug Enforcement Administration, DEA, this new drug was evil incarnate, to be stopped at any cost. They placed an undercover agent into the ranks of a NY Mafia family that appears to be behind the distribution of the drug. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

    Max Payne, now a DEA special agent, is a man with nothing to lose. He goes to work undercover among the dirtiest mobster murderers in this city gone bad.

    Now Max's boss and best friend, the only one who knew his true identity, has been murdered, and Max's been framed for the slaying.

    Now the cops think Max is a cop killer, and suddenly the mobsters know all about him being a fed. Both are out to get him, and the heat's coming down like nothing before. But Max ain't gonna do a fade.

    He's got nothing to lose. He swears he's gonna find his boss' murderers and make them pay, big time.

    He's gonna track down the source of Valkyr and make them wish they were never born. If Max is going down, he's gonna take all the wiseguys with him, all the way to hell.

    As you fight for justice and to clear your name, you'll uncover plot-twists and underground thugs galore - all wrapped up in a New York winter blizzard. Prepare for a new breed of deep action game - prepare for pain..

    Features original third-person 3D action. Photo-digitised textures and radiosity lighting, result in one of the most realistic looking games ever seen on the iMac. 'Bullet time' gameplay - a first in gaming. This slow-motion action gives you a 'Matrix' style advantage over your opponents and helps you dodge bullets. High levels of environmental interactivity - demolish your surroundings and leave the rooms caked in your foes' blood!

    Features:
    • Self-adjusting difficulty level ensures that the game is always challenging and never a walkover or nigh impossible.
    • Two camera modes show the grim present day New York City setting and the gunplay action from the best possible angles. The follow-up mode tails Max Payne, as he runs, his guns blazing and his long leather jacket flapping, through trash littered alleys and cockroach crawling hotel rooms.
    • Realistic weapon set-up includes over a dozen real-life guns, all fitting the crime-story setting like a bullet in the head.
    • The action is surrounded with more than 80 hand-painted comic-screens that enhance the game's dark and gritty atmosphere and attitude, introduce the game's murderous cast of characters and carry the twisting roller coaster plot from one action location to the next.
    • Smooth character system that allows seamless characters meshes with a wide range of movement. Characters naturally receive lighting properly from the environment.
    • Full Radiosity Lighting. The lighting has never been this realistic. MAX-FX Radiosity Lighting photo-realistically reflects the light and casts shadows in the environment.
