Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
Posted: Fri Aug 22, 2003 1:07 pm
Yes, it's coming! A new Max Payne game. And it sounds like it's gonna be quite good too. I really liked the first Max Payne (except for when those 2 levels when he's walking through the trails of blood. That just pissed me off). Anyway, here's what it says on the official website.
