Max Payne 3 Delayed

rockstarrem — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 19:01:42 +0000

Max Payne 3 has been delayed until May 15th, 2012. Along with this, the pre-order deadline has been increased until April 2nd. I am very saddened to hear this news, and I'm sure most of the community will be as well. On the bright side, we should feel rest-assured that the game will be of the quality we expect it to be. As good as, if not better than the first two in the series.

How do you feel about this delay? Let us know in the [url=http://paynekillers.com/forums]forums[/url].

Remedy Development helping to test Max Payne 3

rockstarrem — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 23:28:41 +0000

Remedy Development (the makers of the first two Max Payne's) are apparently helping Rockstar test Max Payne 3.

[quote="Matthias Myllyrinne"]
We’ve known the Rockstar guys for 11, 12 years now and it just felt natural as they were wrapping up Max Payne 3 that they reached out asking for input and feedback. We go, ‘Of course, that’s wonderful.’ We love Max Payne and personally I’ve been with Max for many, many years.” But don’t think Remedy is helping with the coding. Matthias continued, “They’re doing all the heavy lifting, it’s not like we’re doing a significant part of it. We’re not doing development

We’re just giving feedback, giving input, playing the builds and providing our thoughts. Certainly it’s fun. It’s almost like a dream job. You just get to play and give your input. (Rockstar) is very open and secure in what they do. They don’t ship bad games, period. With their kind of attention to detail it’s been fun working with those guys. We’ll continue to offer input as they continue to wrap it up.[/quote]

Sounds great to me. With Remedy's input/feedback I can see the game being as good or even better than the first two. What do you guys think? Let us know in the forums.
