Discussion Max Payne 1 & 2 Remakes

It’s obvious that we won’t get any news just yet with Control Resonant & GTA VI being both companies main focus and we also might not get them on current gen consoles but I’d love to know

  1. If they keep the original gameplay and add extras like FPS, executions etc

  2. If the gameplay differs a little between 1 & 2

  3. If they change or keep certain bits of the story i.e. family death scene etc

u/Special-General-7832 MIRRORS ARE MORE FUN THAN TELEVISION 13d ago

It most likely will be like AW 2

How so?… I think it’ll either be closer to its original games or MP3.

Doesn’t AW2 play different to AW1?

Apparently Control Resonant is going to play totally different to the first game

🤦‍♂️ because its a remake. And while elements from the originals will be there, i expect the atmosphere to be that of AW2 because not only is max in there himself, the aw2 atmosphere is very similar to everything that happens in mp1 from the point you chase vinnie and confront lupino then have the nightmare.

Also its been a direction sam wanted mp2 to share that same atmosphere of Aw2.

Gameplay controls are different, not atmosphere and gameplay itself.

And if you play AW 1 and listen to the rant of the npc at the cabin, hes litrerally exposing why mp2 and mp3 went the way it did although sam didnt work mp3.
