	AVault \| PC \| Max Payne Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Max Payne draws inspiration from the hard-boiled detective novelist Dashiell Hammett, Hong Kong film director John Woo, and the Wachowski brothers of The Matrix fame.
		The main character, Max Payne, is a mixture of Sam Spade and action star Chow Yun Fat, with elements of Keanu Reeves' character Neo (all "whoas" aside).
		Payne's no-nonsense attitude and actions drive the gameplay, but unlike the one-dimensional Duke Nukem, Payne has an interesting and storied past that even comes back to haunt him.

	ActiveWin: Max Payne - Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		It was to be like nothing anyone had ever played before, with the gamer as Detective Max Payne, an undercover agent who was being framed for the murder of his partner and being chased by both the cops and by the mob, all set in the gritty underbelly that is New York City.
		Max enters the room, and passes the charred, smoldering remains of his would-be enemies, where a laptop computer lies on the conference table.
		I found Max Payne to be like a watching good action movie, where I enjoyed playing it the first time, and I'll enjoy playing it again a few months down the line-and I can't wait for the sequel.

	CNN.com - Review: 'Max Payne' turns gaming world on its ear - August 10, 2001
		The hero, Max Payne, is a composite of every action-movie hero of the last 60 years.
		Payne's gruff narration is convincing, even if the script is laughably overwritten ("The cops arrived, sirens singing in the off-key harmony of a manic-depressive choir.").
		Max's gruff narration is the main sound effect, and it fits the game's mood perfectly, though it's a time zone or two on the melodramatic side.

		This sequel, which is officially titled Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne (which, let’s face it is a pretty silly subtitle, as it could just as easily apply to the first game), has been in production pretty much since the last game shipped.
		The original Max Payne engine was really ahead of its time, or at least, it was when it was first announced, some four years before it was actually released.
		Max Payne 2 is pretty much complete, and will be shipping for PC on October 15th, and for PS2 and Xbox in December.

	IGN: Max Payne Review
		Character models are also first-rate, although Max's arms do seem a bit long for his body and he always has a grimace on his face that makes him look constipated, but it certainly doesn't detract from the game.
		There have been some worries about Max Payne's high system requirements bouncing around the Internet lately, but it ran well on a 600MHz machine at 1024x768 with 32-bit full detail, so I think the average gamer will be able to run it with no problems.
		There's no multiplay in Max Payne -- the mechanics of bullet time would pretty much make multiplay impossible, and without it Max Payne wouldn't be Max Payne -- but those of you who want more Payne shouldn't have to wait long as the game ships with a full set of editing tools, albeit no textures.

	Max Payne 2 Review
		Luckily, the first Max Payne was pretty good for what it was, so more of the same isn't necessarily a bad thing.
		Say what you will about Max Payne as an intellectual property (reportedly purchased for $10 million), but this is really about the gunfights.
		But the world of Max Payne 2 feels less like New York and more like one big construction site stuffed with scaffolding and cardboard boxes that will eventually catch fire so you have to run out before it all blows up.
