The 2nd chapter in Max Payne's troubled life...

User Rating: 8.5 | Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne PC
It brings together Rockstar's excellent storytelling and creativity making the game great, except for the length.

Max Payne 2 is a great improvement from the first one in terms of graphics shootdodge mechanics and gameplay in general. The amount of detail in the game is also a great addition. The amount of objects you can interact with is amazing. You can kick around every bin and box, even pizza slices can be shot around. The default difficulty is a lot lower than Max Payne 1, a bit too easy in my opinion. The voices are a great improvement. The random people and enemy you encounter say more interesting things. Also, all the locations are different, and some are pretty cool, such as a place called the fun house, which is like a hollywood mental asylum movie set with a bunch of props. The classic max payne madness parts returns, except the puzzles in these segments are a lot easier than max payne 1. In conclusion, for a 2003 game, this was outstanding.
