Rockstar is remaking Max Payne 1 and 2!

Even better, Remedy themselves are! Rockstar are publishing it though as they own the rights to the IP. I’m super curious about how they’ll turn out, especially with James McCaffrey’s passing.

winkerjadams,

Can’t be any worse than the GTA slop they did a couple years ago, right?

Remedy made some GTA slop?

eRac,

No, Rockstar outsourced a ‘remaster’ of the early 3D games that was poorly handled.

I saw! i heard Remedy is being involved in it (and based on some photos i’ve seen i think they’re heading it) so my hopes are high

Are we sure this is RE and not Portal 2?

It’s interesting when games do that, though as someone who rarely replays game, I never really notice these things.

It’s rare for me to replay games too. Ever since i’ve started doing these screenshots though i’ve started going back and replaying a few things. It’s really changed the way i play games

Oooh, Max Payne!

I played them when they were released, and they were such great games for their time. Don’t remember much about the story though, some dream sequences, and there was some subway in start of the first game I believe, remember trying the slow-mo from different angles there.

Looking forward to play the remakes!

The subway in the first game is iconic too me. I still remember the layout in my head and think about it from time to time

Far Cry Blood Dragon’s tutorial section. The game is very aware of how impatient gamers are to get to the killing, and milks it for all the time it can while the PC grumbles about annoying tutorial sections. They throw in a ton of extra dialog boxes like accompanying reading recommendations, obvious tips,etc.

The whole game is meta and corny on purpose. If you like '80s action movies and sci-fi, they packed just about every trope possible into this thing. Heavily recommend if you haven’t played it.

KingGimpicus,

Seconded.

I have more fond memories of blood dragon than I do of farcry 3 and 4 combined, despite blood dragon being like a 20 hour standalone dlc

I also make sure in to visit the easter egg shrine everytime I’m playing the appartment section.

I feel like Remedy has a knack for that.

They definetely do, always a treat to explore their spaces.

This is what makes RE good. That and the terrible acting/script of the first game.

dukemirage,

This is what made me bounce off of it.

In Drake of The 99 Dragons, each time you die, (which happens often), you get roasted and humiliated by some gods in the after life for 10 seconds before they allow you to revive again. This has absolutely no reason to be here, except for doubling the loading screen time.

Could also mention, in the 6th installment of Touhou Project, Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, if you play on easy, the game won’t even let you fight the final boss, mocking your pride on such simple level, and this game mode is usually commented as child play by the games in the whole franchise.

Eternal Darkness on the GameCube

It makes the Volume go up and down and a bunch of other wacky things.

just at the tail end of being obsessed with Hollow Knight (after having owned it since the Switch came out in 2017, but could never get past the 1st boss, so never played it) - since then played a bit of Elden Ring, half of Dark Souls 1, then started a bit of Silksong (beat 1st boss 1st try), but I’ve kinda hit a wall - I’ve explored the whole map except one map-region, and just have like 7 bosses to beat…

Playing Silksong now, also I started Pokemon Z-A 3 days before it was released ; on a hacked switch , hehehe

Ace Combat. Seems rather dull on the face of it but goddamn are the geopolitics compelling.

Little Nightmares 1 & 2. Cosmic horror very well executed. No real lore is ever given to you besides what you are shown through your travels and what little environmental storytelling exists.

Everything is vaguely familiar but off. Distorted, but in a way that you’re never quite sure whether everything in the world is supposed to be like that, or if something happened to make it that way. In fact, it’s not even officially cosmic horror. There is no Cthulhu-esque big bad revealed to be behind it all. The visuals of the games could even just be interpreted as on -the-nose allegory and metaphor, with a fairytale like quality, if not for the subtle hints at a prior normality in the background.
