    Odd choice to mention.

    I am far more hopeful for this.

    Max payne 3 was a game. A Rockstar game. But not a very good max payne game.

        Yeah it is.

        Sam Lake and Remedy made masterpieces of story telling and atmosphere. Rockstar made a third person shooter. Polished and plentiful, not a bad game at all. But it was very far removed from what made Max Payne 1 and 2 great games.

              It’s not a very good discussion. I said I don’t really get excited about a lot of things and they went on to explain why the last thing I remember being excited for is inferior.

              I imagine this person has very strong feelings about the things they like. If someone told them the thing they liked was inferior, I don’t believe they’d be receptive.

              I don’t care to compare things I’m fond of. I’m just excited for STALKER 2.

                My point was I hope they keep stalker like a stalker game. I said it was an odd comparison because everything about max payne was not in max payne 3. They completely changed it. Alan Wake is closer to a max payne game than 3 is.

                If you thought three was the right direction to go for you, that’s great. Like I said it’s a good game. But they drastically changed it.

                  All I said was I haven’t been this excited for a sequel in a while. I’m not comparing anything. You are.

                  I like All the Max Payne games, I like Alan Wake and I like all the STALKER games.

                  “Alan Wake is closer to a max payne game than 3 is.” In your opinion.

                    Yeah, i don’t get why you think it’s a big deal. I am hoping they keep it the same and expand. Not completely change. That’s it.

                    If you don’t expect a discussion, I am not sure why you posted your thoughts at all, lol.
