Max Payne (Video Game)	comment	The Max Payne series is a trio of Film Noir Third-Person Shooter video games first developed by Remedy Entertainment.The first game, Max Payne, was an attempt to break video games into Film Noir. A mixture of both the film and graphic novel treatments of noir, it featured such stalwart elements of the genre as the hard-boiled cynical hero, the capable and mysterious Femme Fatale, and the complex plot with myriad linear and tangential echelons of villains, all played under a gravel-voiced narration laden with gothic imagery and twisted arthouse metaphors. There are even a number of references to Norse Mythology. The cutscenes were told in Graphic Novel form, made by photographing the scenes and altering them digitally to resemble watercolor drawings.The game's main selling point was the use of Matrix-style Bullet Time (despite the game being in the works before the movie came out), which allowed the players to slow down key points of the game while letting them aim and react as usual. This gave players an edge over the bad guys as well as looking darn cool, especially since the game was one of the first to use projectile modeling for each and every bullet rather than a hitscan technique. Slowing down time slowed down the bullets as well, letting you see every bullet you dodge. The game also impressed with its highly interactive environments, deep soundscape, and interesting aspects of gameplay such as playable dream sequences.Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne released in 2003, featured better physics and graphics, actual in-engine cutscenes with new animation beyond the standard AI movements, more varied gameplay, and an original song by the newly-formed Poets of the Fall.It took eight years for Max Payne 3 to be developed and released. This time, it was developed entirely by Rockstar Games, with no design work but constant feedback from Remedy. This game movies away from the noir run-and-gun style of its predecessors, with more focus on action.As a promotional effort for the third game, three short digital comics were slowly released. The comics are in order, After the Fall, Hoboken Blues, and Fight and Flight. The comics are published by Marvel Comics, co-written by Rockstar's Dan Houser and Max's creator Sam Lake, and deal with Max's early life, his courtship of his wife Michelle, the aftermath of the second game, and the period between the second and third games.A movie based on the characters was released in 2008 to poor critical reception, but modest commercial success. Related tropes should go to its separate page.In April 2022, it was announced that Remedy and Rockstar were planning to release a remake of the first and second game for PC, as well as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\|S.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_10a51060	comment	In the first game, Max, for instance, faces off against gangsters clad in fedoras, suits and trenchcoats (silly gangster garb even for late '90s standards), some are even Dress-Coded for Your Convenience in fabulous purple like they're straight out of Tim Burton's Batman films, Aesir security looks like Imperial Starfleet officers and the "killer suits" are dressed like Agent Smith. Even Max wears fancy 'street-wise' attire when he should be wearing three-layer winter clothing.

The orchestrator of the attack calls the house to verify if her goons carried out the hit, to make it all the more literal. Sure enough, next time we see Max he's a DEA agent.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_15aed120	comment	Shows Damage: Max's model changes notably in the second game, first after his hospital visit, and then after he is shot. One of the dream sequences has him facing the increasingly more damaged versions of himself. It is used more extensively in the third game, where Max often suffers damage as the level wears on, and used extremely on the last level and those proceeding it, as Max begins with a shirt and tie getup, and by the last few minutes, it turns into a half-burned and injured Max with most of his shirt burnt and ripped. The game also shows bullets holes on Max's person as well as on the mooks' bodies when he shoots them.

While Max is riding a glass-walled elevator down in the last level of the first game, a helicopter shows up and starts blasting away, forcing him to jump to another elevator.

The developers has hinted that certain details, such as the absurd amounts of mooks he guns down throughout the games, might have been embellished through the lens of Max's guilt complexes and addictions. He gets really hard to read at the end of the third game due to a combination of mixed signals and an oddly surreal detachment from the action.

The cutscenes are told in a graphic novel format, and that particular scene even shows a a previous cutscene laid out like a comic page. The second letter read in this section tells Max he's in a computer game◊. It even hangs a lampshade on Bullet Time. Smaller funnier moments ensue by interacting with the environment: blast an alarm or an elevator speaker and Max will thank you for it; he'll even play rimshot on the drums, and try (unsuccessfully) to play the Max Payne theme on the piano. In the third game, if you linger around the tram terminal too long without activating the power, Max gets fed up and directly calls the player (you) an "asshole".

The game veers from a look at the "stranger in a strange land" and the stark contrast of the gloom behind the glitz and becomes a stark reflection on the value of Pay Evil unto Evil as Max gets closer to the horror and sobers up. By the end of the game, he's done a good thing, and is satisfied with the end result, but whether that makes him a good person is left unanswered.

Generally Justified (captured by bad guys, left for dead, in a hospital, etc). The third game constantly justifies it with most missions taking place on different days and Max showing up with the logical equipment for the job, instead of meeting his boss with a grenade launcher strapped to his back. In the later levels of MP3, Max's inability to hold on to his arsenal gets to the point where it's almost worthy of an Alan Wake-style running gag. At various points in time, he's robbed at gunpoint twice, disarmed by captors, arrested, and ditches all of his bigger guns in favor of a silenced 9mm.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_285f34c7	type	World of Symbolism
Max Payne (Video Game) / int_285f34c7	comment	World of Symbolism: All over the place. The original game is all an allegory for Ragnarok. The story is set during the worst blizzard in the history of New York, which parallels the Fimbulwinter that starts off Ragnarok. It begins with the murder of Alex Balder, who represents Baldr. Jack Lupino explicitly identifies himself as the Fenris Wolf at one point, and runs a club called Ragna Rock. Alfred Woden (Odin), a one-eyed and secretive man who apparently knows all the secrets in the world, dispatches the lone mortal hero against the forces of the duplicitous Nicole Horne, who has already ensured the deaths of everyone in Woden's circle except himself. The drug Valkyr is also a reference to Valkyries, who transport the dead to the afterlife. The second game includes a number of references to Paradise Lost and Genesis, with Vlad representing the serpent/Satan, Woden representing God and Max & Mona representing Adam & Eve. The final level includes wall art depicting the Garden of Eden. The third game, amusingly, is filled with symbolism of Max's drugged up state (appearing as video game "glitches", oddly placed stark lens flares, and television static). It's just not mythological in any way. There's also a lot of cultural symbolism, though that might be easier to pick up for someone familiar with the area. The third game also has the moment where Max is visiting his family's grave and gets attacked by a bunch of italian mobsters who want revenge on him. The first thing he does? Take cover behind his wife and daughter's grave which is then shot to bits as it offers him protection, something that Michelle and Rose have been doing for Max through out the entire franchise.

Actually, the wolves who pursue the sun and moon, and who will eat them during Ragnarok, are called SkÃ¶ll and Hati, both separate from Fenris. Of course, it IS Jack Lupino saying this, the Valkyrie hopping lunatic who shot one of his own men because he wanted to see what his brains looked like splattered on the wall.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_2ef005ab	comment	Vocal Evolution: Particularly in 3, James McCaffrey's portrayal of Max becomes more dynamic and vivid (whereas earlier entries were paying tribute to classic noir-style storytelling, thus giving Max a deeper, more matter-of-fact voice) with frequent inflection and emotion. It is also likely to do with Max's worldview becoming considerably more tainted and jaded after 2 (Rockstar was playing with the idea of changing the actor to give Max an older and more world-weary tone, but bowed out due to fan outcry and the fact that the long development period meant McCaffrey had aged as much as the character).

In Max Payne 2: Max defeats Vlad and survives, but several of his police force/friends are dead, and Mona dies from a gunshot wound (unless the player beats the game on the hardest difficulty setting, in which case she survives). While Max is grieving, he begins to overcome his depression. In Max Payne 3: Though he fails to save Rodrigo or Fabiana, Max exposes the organ theft ring and brings Victor to justice, defeating the UFE and disbanding them. Victor is found guilty, and a few weeks later is found hung in jail. His death is officially ruled suicide, but it's heavily implied that he was killed in retribution for his crimes. Max has finally moved past his wife and daughter's deaths, gotten over his alcoholism, and can finally relax.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_45bf382b	comment	Game Mod: The first two games were developed with modding in mind, back during an era when video game developers openly encouraged fans to customise their game to their hearts' content. Max Payne 1 came with a level editor on the game's installation disc, while the SDK for Max Payne 2 could be obtained from the Rockstar Games website. 3 did not come with any provision for modding whatsoever (being how it uses RAGE which was not explicitly developed with custom content in mind), though it could still be modded to some degree using third-party tools such as OpenIV. One notable mod is the Sam Lake face mod, which recreates series writer Sami JÃ¤rvi's likeness back into the game, including his iconic jacket. The mod was so well-made that it earned the kudos of Sam Lake himself. All 3 games have a fan mod that allows playing the game in first person, giving a fresh perspective on them. Because Max Payne 3 is heavily built around cover-based combat, the mod gives it a hybrid first-person/third-person perspective reminiscent of games like Rainbow Six Vegas or Perfect Dark Zero.

A flashback scene in the third game indicates he died of a heart attack between games, leaving Max with no influential allies left to get him out of the trouble he's always getting in.

This allows the player to fire, say, a magnum revolver or a Sawed-Off Shotgun alongside a machine pistol.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_553c27bb	type	Sliding Scale of Silliness vs. Seriousness
Max Payne (Video Game) / int_553c27bb	comment	Sliding Scale of Silliness vs. Seriousness: At least in its presentation, the series moved perpetually downwards with every sequel: In the first game, Max, for instance, faces off against gangsters clad in fedoras, suits and trenchcoats (silly gangster garb even for late '90s standards), some are even Dress-Coded for Your Convenience in fabulous purple like they're straight out of Tim Burton's Batman films, Aesir security looks like Imperial Starfleet officers and the "killer suits" are dressed like Agent Smith. Even Max wears fancy 'street-wise' attire when he should be wearing three-layer winter clothing. The second game still indulges in fancy stereotypes, but from entirely contemporary and non-comical works (The Mafia is strutting around in tracksuits, legere jackets and blazers, The Mafiya in camo pants, sweaters and pelt coats, the cleaners in... well, cleaning overalls - and those adorable cleaning company caps) but everyone actually dresses like reasonable Turn of the Millennium New Yorkers. The third game comes as close to the serious (and nigh-unimpressive) end as the Max Payne formula allows it; the Favela thugs look like straight out of any Real Life favela, and the private contractors and police are closely modeled on actual organisations - there are no fancy exaggerations (apart from Bald!Max' (much-mocked) Hawaiian-Shirted Tourist get-up, and Hoboken's "spray-tan Guido douche" stereotype).

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30	comment	Meaningful Name: Max Payne. One of the major components of the game is downing bottles of painkillers. John Mirra in Address Unknown, riffing on "Mirror." Also, the protagonist mentions a fictional poet called "Pool", in a game written by Sam Lake (who also lent his likeness to the protagonist). Alfred Woden, the one-eyed figure who knows everything going on in the first game. "Woden" is the Old English/Anglo-Saxon name for "Odin." The ill-fated Alex Balder is named after the Norse god Baldr, who is betrayed and killed at the beginning of Ragnarok. Don Punchinello is a reference to the Victorian-era puppet show character, signifying that the don is Nicole Horne's puppet. Nicole Horne's is called "the hag" repeatedly. In keeping with the Norse theme, that's N. Horne = Norn. Jack Lupino's name conveys his wolf-like tendencies. During his crazed tirade, he makes a reference to "the wolf" and howls. This might be considered another Norse reference as well, to Fenris. Rico Muerte's last name is Spanish for death. The Sax twins' names are Mona and Lisa. Ragna Rock is a reference to Ragnarok, the Norse apocalypse. The Aesir Corporation is named after the Aesir, the chief pantheon of Norse gods. Max learns about Project Valhalla by accessing a computer network called Yggdrasil, the name of the giant tree from which Odin was hung, an ordeal which gave him secret knowledge. Valkyr drug makes user high with potential deadly results. Much like Valkyries, flying creatures who take the warriors to Valhalla. After they die, of course. Most of the names of the second game's levels. Though most of the allusion goes to the quotes present within the level, some are relevant to the general situation ("No 'Us' In This" is a level where you would expect to have Mona as a sidekick, but she runs off) or even gameplay features ("Dearest Of All My Friends" is exactly how much you have to protect Vinnie during the game's Escort Mission).

The How We Got Here introduction cutscene is however the darkest one yet, with Max walking up to a man who was horribly disfigured and burned by an explosion and is missing an arm, Max ready to execute him with a pistol. Max has also become even worse since 2, succumbing to alcoholism and painkiller addiction. The mood of the story from start to end rapidly becomes dreary as the plot go from bad to worse to nightmarish, eventually inspiring Max to go on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge to apprehend the Big Bad.

The third game also leans more heavily into this trope for the weapons that don't get their real names, though several are contracted versions of their real names like the DE .50 (a Desert Eagle) or still related to the real weapon in some other way like the SAF .40 (a Taurus MT-40 named after the FAMAE SAF it was based on). Both also have one misidentified weapon each, 2's "MP5" actually being a chopped and converted HK94 and 3's Remington 870 named the "M500" as if it's a Mossberg.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_9c63834f	comment	Boring Yet Practical: The pump action shotgun can carry you through a large proportion of the first game, thanks to its plentiful ammo (especially in comparison to the Ingram, which burns through ammo pretty quickly to boot, especially when dual wielded), good stopping power, and (for the most part) relative close quarters combat for much of the game. In fact, it renders the Sawed-Off Shotgun totally redundant, since the pump action can be acquired first, a progression that's inverted for the sequel.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_9c7e3137	comment	Hyperspace Arsenal: Max can fit a ludicrous number of guns in his jacket in the first two games, but it's averted in the third game. He can carry one large rifle or shotgun and two smaller weapons (also letting him mix and match them, so he can carry an Uzi and a revolver, one in each hand if you wish). Max will even realistically carry his longarm in his off hand due to the lack of a sling, even during cutscenes. And if he needs to go Guns Akimbo, he has to drop the long gun. The game even edits cutscenes to take account of whether or not Max entered the scene carrying a rifle and has to put it down or have it taken, and he later carries a duffel bag throughout a level. The Beretta Model 12 submachine gun has also had its stock and foregrip removed to allow it to be fit in Max's shoulder holsters (although both it and the Sawed-Off Shotgun still look ridiculous when they're stowed there). There's an element of Gameplay and Story Segregation in play in the early games, however, as several frames in the graphic novels in the first game depicts Max carrying a duffel bag full of weapons.

It's Nicole Horne, the person who Max Payne kills in the final mission in revenge for her getting his family killed by V-head junkies she sent to his home. In 1, during the second Valkyr nightmare, a Pancor Jackhammer (shotgun) can be seen in a weapon selection dialogue in a panel about Max Payne having a realization that he's inside a computer game. That weapon becomes available in the chapter proceeding this bad trip. In 2, Max starts feeling contempt for Vlad even before he stabs him in the back.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_9d17b859	type	Made of Iron
Max Payne (Video Game) / int_9d17b859	comment	Made of Iron: Just give him some painkillers, and Max can walk off anything. In cutscenes, he's survived a lethal overdose of Valkyr, having his skull used for batting practice, wandering through the worst snowstorm in New York's history without even buttoning up his coat, getting shot in the head with a Desert Eagle, falling into a pit after being gunned down, and having high-powered explosives detonate right next to him. The third game introduces bullet wounds (including exit wounds) for both Max and the enemies, so it's not uncommon for a cutscene to have Max littered with holes and still going about business as usual. In the first game, Elite Mooks and bosses could survive truly incredible amounts of damage before dying (Rico Muerte, the first really bullet-spongy opponent you face, can soak a full 36 rounds from your dual Berettas before dropping, and some later bosses like Jack Lupino are even tougher). The second game tries to be a bit more realistic and averts this, with even kevlar-wearing commandos going down with only a few shots from a decent automatic weapon. The second game also mostly does away with boss fights; Kaufman is the only real "boss" in the game, and even he only has about 4 times as much health as a regular Mook, while the final opponent is largely a Puzzle Boss fight. BB in the first game is the closest thing the entire series has to a Damage-Sponge Boss. Just one direct him from a grenade launcher or a bullet to the head from a sniper rifle is not enough to take him down.

The third game moves over to the Rage engine and comes with all the requisite next-gen physics upgrades, including a section where you can shoot the wheel block away from a truck and let it roll down a ramp to crush some bad guys loading it up. The jump physics in 3 are truly a sight to behold. Jump into anything you really shouldn't be diving into, and watch as Max's body realistically crumples under the strain at the appropriate angle. You will likely wince along with Max when you go for those back breaking twenty foot balcony dives.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_a9667a3b	comment	Hero Insurance: Averted, Subverted, and played straight. Explicitly explained in the first game. In exchange for killing Nicole Horne, Alfred Woden promises that no charges will ever be filed against Max for any of the murders he's committed in his quest for revenge. Quite justified, because Woden needs something to offer to Max. One wonders how Max managed to beat the rap from his antics in the second game, given that he kills hundreds of goons, actively assists a wanted assassin in killing even more goons, and Act III outright has Max being hunted for shooting his partner. Plus, Woden gets killed near the end of the game leaving Max without any friends in the power elite to bail him out. For what it's worth, everyone Max kills is either a mobster or secret society rent-a-commando actively trying to murder him, and his partner was literally in bed with the Big Bad. Taken to extremes in the third game, where Max essentially massacres the entire SÃ£o Paulo police Special Forces division, right before shooting down a powerful politician's private jet with a grenade launcher, and one week later is shown walking off into the sunset unburdened. Then again, unlike the previous two games, Max is never caught by the police, and there are no living witnesses to his actions, and it also helps that a local cop works with Max to expose the fact that the politician and police Special Forces were pretty much engaged in systematic mass murder against the city's poor population and criminal element. Newspaper clippings in the third game indicate that Max was fired from the NYPD for the events of the second game. This makes sense as There's a recording on Vladimir Lem's answering machine of Detective Winterson promising to kill Max Payne. So he wouldn't be guilty of murdering his partnernote he actually did kill her without knowing she was corrupt, but no one besides him and Mona would know that but it's unlikely he'd be forgiven for the body count he left behind.

If you touch the flames, however, you get damaged. In the sequel, characters at least cover their mouths against the smoke. A section of the third game takes place in a bombed building that's badly damaged enough to be practically melting under the heat, but Max and the enemies don't seem to mind much even when walking on glowing red beams. Max can still die from air loss if he fails to escape in time.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_bcf69f60	comment	Short-Range Shotgun: Averted and played straight at the same time. For you, especially at higher difficulties, shotguns have so much spread that they are almost useless against anything farther than five meters away. For the enemy, however, shotguns behave more realistically and can inflict heavy damage even at long range, making them the most dangerous gun for mooks to carry. Seems to be averted in the third game, as all but the sawn-off shotgun can perform respectably at range. You still have to be close to get a One-Hit Kill bodyshot, but mid/long range headshots are quite easy since enemies will die if so much as one pellet hits them in the head.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_c2393191	comment	Show Within a Show: Televisions around the environment will give plot information or strangely mirror Max's current situation. The first two games feature reports from the fictional NYCNN news channel commenting upon the in-game events. The third game uses the world news program INC to the same end. The first game features one episode each of Lords and Ladies, an over-the-top period soap opera, and Address Unknown, a Twin Peaks-esque psychological thriller. In 2, multiple episodes can be seen — Lords and Ladies focuses on a brother who is in love with a woman below his breeding and his brother and mother conspire to put an end to the affair, and in Address Unknown the full plot is revealed as a man hunting a serial killer who has framed him for the murders, only to find out it's his split personality. In Max Payne 2 there is Dick Justice (a blaxploitation parody of the first game), The Adventures of Captain BaseballBat Boy (based on the comic strip of the same name, which appeared in the first game), and Max Heat, a porno. Max Payne 3 reprises the Captain BaseballBat Boy show while replacing Lords and Ladies with a telenovela called Amor e Damas ("Love and Ladies").

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_c2b28f75	type	A.K.A.-47
Max Payne (Video Game) / int_c2b28f75	comment	A.K.A.-47: Zig-zagged depending on the game. The first game goes for a few generic descriptors like the 9mm Pistol (Beretta 92), Pump-Action Shotgun (Winchester 1300) or Sniper Rifle (Steyr SSG 69), while a few others go for either correct names like the Desert Eagle and Jackhammer, or aliases like the Colt Model 733 going by "Colt Commando" (a catch-all term for M16-based carbines made before the M4) and the MAC-10 called the "Ingram" (the name of the MAC-10's designer). The second and third avert this for the most part, going for real names as much as possible - even going so far as to swap out Max's previous trademark Beretta 92s for their local Brazilian counterpart, the PT92 - though they still go for a few generic names, like the second game's Pump-Action Shotgun (a Remington 870 this time) and Sniper Rifle (the SSG 69 again), or the third's Auto 9mm (a full-auto-converted Glock 17) and Micro 9mm (a Mini Uzi shrunk to the size of a Micro Uzi). The third game also leans more heavily into this trope for the weapons that don't get their real names, though several are contracted versions of their real names like the DE .50 (a Desert Eagle) or still related to the real weapon in some other way like the SAF .40 (a Taurus MT-40 named after the FAMAE SAF it was based on). Both also have one misidentified weapon each, 2's "MP5" actually being a chopped and converted HK94 and 3's Remington 870 named the "M500" as if it's a Mossberg.

At the end of the first game, Max is pretty satisfied with himself, and has Woden promising to get him out of trouble. In the second Max reveals he wants to be punished for his crimes, and that he's still miserable, having lied to himself that it was over; the conclusion has Max getting justice after tying up any loose ends. By the third, he's still dwelling on the life he can't return to, and is now a depressed drunk who has been run out of town by the mob. The conclusion of the third averts this (as of yet) as Max finally comes to terms with his past and gets the break he's earned.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: In one level, Max bursts into an apparently empty apartment, where a machine pistol lies on the kitchen counter. A thug then casually walks out of the bathroom. Among other John Woo nods, the medium difficulty setting in the first two games is named Hard Boiled. The Hongkong Chinese release for the franchise is called Truth of A Hero. The spinning Bullet Time reloads Max does in the second game are probably in reference to similar moves done in the finale of The Replacement Killers In the first game, you can find a picture of a Dopefish. This exchange between two bums: A mobster can be found in the fourth level, killed with a wooden stake in a boarded up room. Near him are some letters in blood on the wall that spell "BUFF." In the Lords and Ladies show, the Evil Matriarch says to her son: "Ride like the wind, fight proud my son!" When Max assaults the Ragna Rock nightclub, he passes through a room full of occult books. One isn't surprised to see pop-cultural books like Necronomicon, Paradise Lost and Malleus Maleficarum, but De Umbrarum Regni Novem Portis is a fun oddity. In the third game, Da Silva talks about Max, a drunk picked up in a bar "with A History of Violence". The third game's usage of Interface Screw, on-screen subtitles that emphasize certain words, as well as much of the cinematography and stylistic flourishes, are taken right out of Man on Fire. In the second game, a mobster sings the line, "for I'm a rain dog too" before stepping out into the rainy night. The Captain BaseballBat Boy comic strips from the first game are an obvious style homage to Charles Schultz's Peanuts, though the second game's adaptation of the comics into a TV show moves farther away from the source material. A news bulletin on a television set at Asgard Building in the first game reports that some people are worried about Aesir Corporation being a greater monopoly than Mi- ... CRR ... -soft was. This segment was, naturally, removed from the Xbox port of the game. Max describes Rico Muerte as "a regular Keyser Soze". The scene of Max taping a water bottle onto the muzzle of his Taurus PT92 reeks of being an homage to Steven Seagal doing the same trick in On Deadly Ground. In the first, when taking the elevator in the laundromat, the player can look up and shoot the speaker playing Muzak, after which Max will say, "thank you." This was lifted straight from Blood 2: The Chosen. Jack Lupino's obsession with the occult and demons (along with being quite hard to kill), plus the nightmare sequences, seem to evoke a lot of elements from Acclaim's Shadow Man. In Max Payne 2, when Jim Bravura orders Max Payne to write a report on what happened on the upper east side, Max (in narration) feels that he is in a "cartoon moment when the gravity waits for the coyote to realize his mistake before the plunge."

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_ce6555f0	comment	Lighter and Softer: While just as creepy, the Nightmare Sequence levels from 2 are slightly less disturbing compared to 1 as they lack the weeps and wails of both his wife and infant daughter. They also lacks a nightmarish limbo as it now has an outdoor section rather than being trapped inside his home. The game also has more comic relief moments that help offset the depression that Max is struggling with. 3 is a zigzagged example with many levels actually taking place in the unclouded daylight and the first two stages taking place at lively parties. The How We Got Here introduction cutscene is however the darkest one yet, with Max walking up to a man who was horribly disfigured and burned by an explosion and is missing an arm, Max ready to execute him with a pistol. Max has also become even worse since 2, succumbing to alcoholism and painkiller addiction. The mood of the story from start to end rapidly becomes dreary as the plot go from bad to worse to nightmarish, eventually inspiring Max to go on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge to apprehend the Big Bad.

However, Max also realizes that having committed countless justified first-degree premeditated murders(Nicole Horne, a high-ranking government official turned multi-billionaire drug kingpin, murdered his family in cold blood precisely to conceal a series of capital crimes and would not only surely escape justice but go on to commit future crimes unless he, himself, hunted down and wiped out her entire organization), he will never be able to live a normal life in a society that permitted all that to happen.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_d46bae01	comment	Tarot Troubles: In the first game Max comes across three tarot cards laid out in the Punchinello mansion, apparently by Lisa: The Tower, The Devil, and Death. Max proceeds to make a (amateurish) reading of it, with Tower referring to the mansion, Devil being Don Punchinello and Death as Max, coming for the Don. More accurately, this works as a simple reading of Max's life in past-present-future configuration: The Tower signifies disaster and being brought low (death of Max's family and his life collapsing after that), The Devil is addiction (Max stuck in the shadow of his personal tragedy) and Death is change (Max moving forward from the death of his family).

If he dies before that, the mission is failed. The moment the door opens, the junkie grabs a convenient gun and starts shooting at Max, leading to his untimely demise. But if he gets shot (by Max or his friends) after the door is opened but before he grabs the gun... you've guessed it. It's actually even smaller a margin than that: the goon says the password to open the door, and the door unlocks. You can't shoot the guy then, as it's game over. As soon as the door opens, he screams "It's a trap!" and runs into the room: gun him down. Better yet, stand right behind him and the goons in the room will gun him down for you. He never actually gets to a gun.

In fact, the Tower is the Aesir Corporation building and the Devil is Nicole Horne. Also that isn't what those cards represent in the tarot. But then, Max probably would only know the stereotypical interpretations anyway, since the more accurate reading from them ends up coming true as well. The Tower is his past card and represents the death of his family, the Devil is his present and represents the antagonist of the game, and Death is his future which stands for how he changes to accepting what his life has become by the ending (before the second game at least).

This is especially glaring as Max Payne 2 had grenades as Secondary Fire option while you had any gun out. Now, there is a Grenade Launcher but it's only available in select few locations and it's actually a liability if you go into Last Stand mode as the grenade's travel time all but guarantees you'll die, unless you play on Old School difficulty to disable Last Stand.

A minor example occurs when Mona bursts into the flames that have engulfed the theme park to rescue Max. She fires off two rounds from her Desert Eagle to knock down a barrier in her way before diving through the gap. When the player is given control, her gun has eight rounds in the magazine instead of a full load of ten.

Max gets the hint when he meets B.B. in the third act - no way a guy on a normal police salary can afford a suit and watch that nice. In 2, it's Detective Winterson, who's in bed with the Big Bad Vladimir Lem in a somewhat more literal manner than usual for the term. Winterson uses her position to cover Vlad's activities and later tries to get rid of Max and Mona with lead. In 3, it's the entire UFE force, who are essentially the private army of the Big Bad and in cahoots with outlawed paramilitaries to organ-harvest the poor. Ironically, despite Rodrigo dismissing him as another of these, Da Silva is the only one we see onscreen who isn't.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_ec3947b6	comment	Walk It Off: If Max is injured beyond a certain point, they walk with a limp and the amount of damage slowly decreases until it is at this threshold. The second game dispenses with the limping. In the third game, Max takes a .50 to the arm and is left stumbling and half-coherent from blood loss and shock, but is back to normal with painkillers and bandages. In the meanwhile, he really does essentially walk it off. Max is severely injured in an explosion in the third game, and is almost dead, barely being able to stand upright. One level and probably a few off-screen painkillers later, and he's fine. More to the definition of the trope, the third game features health regeneration in both modes. It is featured in single-player in a limited fashion (it kicks in, at least on hard and below, when more than 80% damage is taken, and regenerates only up to that point), while multiplayer has full health regeneration, with the speed of regeneration inversely proportional to the weight of your character's loadout.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_f5a3e496	comment	Suspiciously Similar Substitute: The cleaner commandos in 2 are a dead ringer for 1's mercenaries as both are heavily armed, wear balaclavas and urban BDU's, communicate through radios as idle chat, are accurate with their weapons, and since they wear body armor, can take a lot of damage before going down. The one difference is that the commandos also carry AK's in addition to M4's.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4	comment	Video Game Cruelty Potential: The rag doll physics in general offer no shortage of opportunities to watch corpses act in amusing ways, such as in 2 when the player can blast a mook off of a cleaner's lift, through a few planks and several stories to his death. The games are usually good on making noncombatants run or hide, but quick and cruel trigger fingers can nail some civvies for Max's body count. Bonus point in the first with the Valkyr junkies, who will start crying when you shoot them, and satisfyingly moan in agonizing pain when they die.

Max Payne (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Part I of the first game is entitled "The American Dream". Part III of the second game is entitled "Waking Up from the American Dream."note It's only in the narration after defeating the final boss that Max reveals his American dream: revenge on all those who had wronged him. The second act of 2 has Max sneaking into the Cleaners' hideout in a condemned building via the back of a van, with Mona following him but initially only about to communicate via radio. In Chapter 2, Max is sneaking around and warns Mona: "These guys are packing, close to overkill. Hardcore professionals."; Mona replies back "Doesn't seem that way from where I'm standing," leaving Max to wonder what she meant. We get the answer in Chapter 4, when control is switched to Mona: as she moves along she gets Max's "hardcore professionals" comment, which immediate precedes her opening a door to watching some cleaners standing around laughing as one of them is prancing around and strutting it like a runway model.

The discovery Nicole Horne is responsible for his wife and child's murder, however, gives him the catharsis to stay alive. Later, in Max Payne 2, Mona Sax does the same. In Max Payne 3, he's mostly just holding onto life via inertia.
