Max Payne Mobile - (by Rockstar Games) - Universal App

[Dirty Harry Hannahan]

^ Very nice review and description.

This game is $3 dollars. Besides the iffy aiming, this one is gold. And I just shake my head when I see other companies offering titles that are a third of this game's quality for twice or triple the price.

That's neither here nor there, though.

Having never actually played more the demo when this one released, this is practically a new game for me. And it's absolutely riveting. Haven't had to charge my phone because of a game in a while.

THREE DOLLARS!

Excellent review as always Big Albie

The better the sales are for games like this the better chance they will release Vice City and other games a lot of people are looking forward to. So if u have any interest at all, pick it up. $3 is a darn cup of coffee now a days.

Nice review as always albie, one thing I would suggest though is change all your references that say the game was originally for a joystick. The game was originally for a mouse and keyboard as it was originally for the pc, not joysticks. It was ported later in the year to ps2 and Xbox, both of which use gamepads not joysticks. Other than that great review.

Where is it in that 2 sentence email does it say they are changing them? and I dont seem to see any intense trolling or anything beyond your everyday forum argument...I just think that for somebody to go as far as upload a video with a message portraying that the controls suck and ruined the game is a bit drastic....do you think that the dev team appreciated that, especially after a half day after the game was released? Perhaps Im wrong it thinking that ...lord knows im not perfect in my ideals...But I must say after playing the game (among 50 plus others Im trying to play) the dive tap shoot is not a fix for the issue BUT it works good enough to enjoy the game all over again....I mean really guys enough is enough.


...seriously is this such a big issue in your daily gaming regimen that we have to start calling each other trolls and outdoing each other in a internet forum

BOTTOMLINE ...nobodys perfect....or always right....we are lucky to have Max Payne waiting for us on a 4 inch screen in our back pocket, or on a high powered 10 inch device.....and OOOh yeah....... I like BACON

A little OT but, do you ever think that people who always and I mean ALWAYS have to be right on the internet are like that in real life? Just arguing all the time with anyone and everyone if they fail to agree with them. I like to think they are and it makes me giggle.

Anyway back on topic: yeah Max Payne on iOs, I played it to death on the PC when it came out, don't really have any desire to replay it again at all, even if it is on the ipad /iphone. Not saying it isn't a great game, just it would be like reading the same book for the 12th time. However, it is nice to know that if I ever want to play it again the option is there to do it on the ipad.

Oh man, some people here...

First of all, I never said the controls ruined the game. Stop lying.

Second of all, you do have an iPhone, right? You do know that recording a video and uploading directly from your iPhone to YouTube takes like 3 minutes... right? Stop making it sound it's such a hassle or a big deal, it's not. And the video never had any intention to say the game suck, the idea of the video was to illustrate exactly the problem to me.

I'm glad the request for the feature was overwhelming, according to the developers. Guess there are a lot of people missing it.

Man, people who can't cope with any sort of criticism to the games they like will always baffle me. I really hope this childish fear of hurting the dev's feelings isn't in the majority of users here, because a lot of devs come here expecting feedback, so sugar coating issues would be a disservice to them and to iOS gaming.

We're done with this "who said what" about the controls argument. Any further comments along these lines will be deleted. Time to move on.
